Background Micropapillary-predominant adenocarcinoma (MPA) of the lung is associated with extensive lymph node involvement and rapid terminal metastasis. However, this subtype has been recognized for only a few years, and there have been few studies of the molecular mechanisms associated with its highly invasive behaviors. Methods The present study...

Introduction The aim of our study was to evaluate the external validity of the online Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) nomogram as a predictor for pelvic lymph node invasion (LNI) in men who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). Material and methods The study cohort consisted of 679 men with cl...

Objective To provide a preoperative predictive model to support clinical decision-making regarding the selection of in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients who will benefit the most from lymph node dissection. Methods This retrospective analysis enrolled 374 RCC patients without distant metastasis who underwent surgical treatment from January 2006 t...

Background: Preoperative hydronephrosis (HN) might be associated with adverse outcomes in patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of preoperative HN on the oncological outcomes in patients with bladder cancer who underwent RC by performing a systemic review and meta-analysis. Methods: A syste...

To test whether the number of lymph nodes removed affects cancer-specific survival (CSS) or metastatic progression-free survival (MPFS) in different renal cell carcinoma (RCC) scenarios. We used Cox regression analyses to analyse the effect of the number of lymph nodes removed on CSS and MPFS in 1983 patients with RCC treated with nephrectomy. To a...
