Sentinel lymph node in cervical cancer
Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women. Effective screening programs can help cancer detection in early phases and reduce death. Metastasis to lymph nodes is one of the most prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery. Also, a positive result from pathology report alert oncologist as a cause of death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been widely ...
متن کاملEarly gastric cancer and lymph node metastasis.
A total of 1,845 cases of gastric cancer have been resected in our hospital during the past 18 years. Of these, 764 cases (41.5%) were early gastric cancer. The rate of lymph node metastasis was 2% in early mucosal cancer and 19.4% in early submucosal cancer (p < 0.001). In the cases of early mucosal cancer, the rate of lymph node metastasis was 0.9% for the elevated type and 2.4% for the depre...
متن کاملSentinel lymph node concept in gastric cancer with solitary lymph node metastasis.
AIM To study the localization of the solitary metastases in relation to the primary gastric cancers and the feasibility of sentinel lymph node (SLN) concept in gastric cancer. METHODS Eighty-six patients with gastric cancer, who had only one lymph node involved, were regarded retrospectively as patients with a possible sentinel node metastasis, and the distribution of these nodes were assesse...
متن کاملEarly mucosal gastric cancer with lymph node metastasis.
From 1976 to 1992, a total of 358 cases of mucosal early gastric cancer (m-cancer) were treated by resection in the First Department of Surgery, Kurume University Hospital. Eight (2.2%) of these 358 cases of m-cancer were associated with lymph node metastasis. In these 358 cases, the mean diameter of the tumor was 2.75 cm, and the mean age was 59.6 years. In the 8 cases of m-cancer with positiv...
متن کاملPredicting sentinel lymph node metastasis in breast cancer with lymphoscintigraphy.
OBJECTIVE Lymphoscintigraphy is an effective method for detecting sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). However, the rate and degree of SLN detection is not uniform. We quantified SLNs detected with lymphoscintigraphy, and investigated correlations with factors that may influence detection. We then attempted to predict SLN metastasis from lymph node counts, comparing the predictions to subsequent biopsy...
