Recent studies have shown that lymph nodes ratio can be considered as an important prognostic factor. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of this factor on the prognosis of the ...
متن کاملCan the lymph node ratio predict outcome in head and neck cancer with single metastasis positive-node?
People with head and neck cancer (HNC) and a single histologically positive-node (PN1+) account for 12–34% of cases in reported studies [1–6]. The risk classification of patients with HNC–PN1+ is not clear perhaps because these individuals generally have a locoregional recurrent disease risk of less than 18% [5,7–9] and 5-year survival rates ranging from 70% to 81% [10,11].

متن کاملThe Prognostic Significance of the Lymph Node Ratio in Axillary Lymph Node Positive Breast Cancer
PURPOSE This study evaluated the prognostic impact of the lymph node ratio (LNR; i.e., the ratio of positive to dissected lymph nodes) on recurrence and survival in breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes (LNs). METHODS The study cohort was comprised of 330 breast cancer patients with positive axillary nodes who received postoperative radiotherapy between 1987 and 2004. Ten-...
متن کامل[Sentinel lymph node biopsy in head and neck cancer patients].
OBJECTIVE By performing sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy, its detecting and predictive value to the cervical metastasis in the head and neck cancer patients was studied.
