Cancer cells that have spread into lymph nodes, whether near the original location or elsewhere, may indicate that the cancer ...

Lymph node metastasis occurs in "metastatic" lymph nodes, lymph nodes that have been infected by cancer from elsewhere in the body. A part of the immune system, lymph nodes are tiny ovals placed ...

N1 Single lymph node metastasis, 2 cm or less in greatest dimension N1 Single regional lymph node metastasis in the true pelvis (hypogastric, obturator, external iliac or presacral lymph node ...

Docetaxel administered through a novel lymphatic drug delivery system (LDDS) improved treatment outcomes for lymph node metastasis. Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy , 2024; 171: 116085 DOI: 10.1016/j ...

A new study, recently published in Research, reported the dynamic changes in the pre-metastatic microenvironment of lymph nodes of breast cancer, as well as the responsible regulatory mechanisms.

Metastases can form in locoregional lymph nodes draining the primary tumor-a form of progression that portends a worse prognosis but can still be curable-or they can develop in distant organs.

Researchers conducted a retrospective cohort study to assess the incidence of lymph node metastases among patients with papillary thyroid cancer.

The risk calculator shows improved precision in a population larger than the original dataset used to validate the tool.

Retrospective and observational analyses suggest that occult lymph-node metastases are an important prognostic factor for disease recurrence or survival among patients with breast cancer.

Caecal cancer and ascending colon cancer had slower rates of metastasis to main nodes compared with transverse colon cancer. Routine prophylactic extended lymphadenectomy for the superior ...

As a result, an oral cancer patient can be spared of a neck dissection to investigate if the cancer has spread to the lymph nodes in case the five biomarkers are absent. Lymph node dissection ...
