Background Effectively diagnosing lymph node (LN) metastasis (LNM) is crucial in determining the condition of patients with gastric cancer (GC). The present study was devised to develop and validate a preoperative predictive model (PPM) capable of assessing the LNM status of individuals with GC. Methods A retrospective analysis of consecutive GC pa...

Introduction While lymph node metastasis (LNM) plays a critical role in determining treatment options for endometrial cancer (EC) patients, the existing preoperative methods for evaluating the lymph node state are not always satisfactory. This study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram based on intra- and peritumoral radiomics features and mult...

The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyse the ultrasound findings in the axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer patients with morphological changes that required biopsy. In most cases the morphological changes were minimal. Between January 2014 and September 2019 examination of axillary lymph nodes with subsequent core-biopsy was performe...

Objectives To explore the impact of lymph node diameter on the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of cervical metastatic lymph nodes (CMLNs) from thyroid cancer. Methods A total of 32 patients with 58 CMLNs from thyroid cancer underwent ultrasound-guided MWA and were included in the retrospective stud...

Intranodal palisaded myofibroblastoma (IPM) is a rare benign tumor of the lymph nodes, particularly in inguinal lymph nodes. IPM originating from the submandibular gland lymph nodes is rarely encountered in clinical practice. Herein, we report the case of a 31-year-old male patient with IPM of the submandibular gland region and describe in detail m...

The presence of the HIV-1 reservoir, a group of immune cells that contain intact, integrated, and replication-competent proviruses, is a major challenge to cure HIV-1. HIV-1 reservoir cells are largely unaffected by the cytopathic effects of viruses, antiviral immune responses, or antiretroviral therapy (ART). The HIV-1 reservoir is seeded early du...

Introduction 18F-fluorodeoxy-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is used with high sensitivity in human medicine for initial staging and treatment planning of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). To the best of our knowledge, 18F-FDG PET/computed tomography (CT) has not been used for canine cutaneous SCC with lymph node m...

Patients with early (T1) esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) are increasingly having definitive local therapy endoscopically. Endoscopic resection is not able to pathologically stage or treat lymph node metastasis (LNM). Accurate identification of patients having nodal metastasis is critical to select endoscopic therapy over surgery. This study aimed t...

Ovarian cancer is usually confined intraperitoneally. Distant metastases at presentation is unusual. Its spread via lymphatics is uncommon, and metastasis to axillary lymph nodes is very rare. We report two cases with presentation of axillary lymphadenopathy without breast involvement. Computed tomography scan identified the ovarian masses. Both ha...

The lymphatic system and the sentinel lymph node (SLN) are a spreading relay for cancer cells in several cancer types, such as breast, cervical, head and neck, and pancreatic carcinomas, as well as melanomas. Before metastatic colonization, the tumor- draining LN undergoes remodeling, forming a pre-metastatic niche (PMN) associated with an increase...
