SLNB-navigated or assisted neck dissection can be added as an effective procedure for N0 neck control....
The lack of standardized delineation of lymph node station in lung cancer radiotherapy leads to nonstandard clinical target volume (CTV) contouring, especially in patients with bulky lump gross target...
Computed tomography (CT) scans of 200 patients with small cell lung cancer were collected. The lymph node zone boundaries were defined based on the IASLC lymph node map, with adjustments to meet radio...
The mean 3D Dice similarity coefficient (Dice similarity coefficient) values of DiUNet in most lymph node stations was greater than 0.7, 98.87% of the lymph node station slices are accepted. The mean ...
This is the first study to propose a method that automatically contours lymph node regions station by station based on the IASLC lymph node map with bulky lump GTVnd. Delineation of lymph node station...
The metastatic lymph node (LN) ratio (LNR) has shown to be an important prognostic factor in various gastrointestinal malignancies. Nevertheless, the prognostic significance of LNR in gallbladder carc...
From January 2007 to January 2018, 144 advanced GBC patients (T2-4 stages) who underwent curative surgery with at least 6 LNs retrieved were enrolled. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was...
The optimal cut-off point for LNR was 0.28 according to the ROC curve. LNR>0.28 was associated with higher rate of D2 LN dissection (P=0.004) and higher tumor stages (P<0.001). Extent of liver resecti...
LNR is correlated to advanced GBC prognosis and is a potential prognostic factor for advanced GBC with at least 6 LNs retrieved....
Axillary lymph node dissection is the standard surgical procedure for breast cancer patients with sentinel lymph node (SLN) positive. In clinical practice, axillary lymph node dissection may be an unn...
To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and malignancy risk of The Sydney System Reporting for Lymph Nodes Cytology....
This study utilized secondary data from 156 cases to conduct a retrospective analysis of a diagnostic test method. During 2019-2021, data were collected at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo's Anatomical Pathol...
There were six cases in the L1 category, thirty-two cases in the L2 category, thirteen patients in the L3 category, seventeen cases in the L4 category, and ninety-one cases in the L5 class. The malign...
The FNAB examination provides high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in diagnosing lymph node tumors. Using a classification based on the Sydney system promotes communication between laboratories...
Lymph node status is vital for gastric cancer (GC) prognosis, but the conventional pN stage may be limited by variations in lymphadenectomy and stage migration. The N-Ratio, which assesses the ratio o...
To assess N-Ratios prognostic value in GC, particularly in patients with <25 resected lymph nodes....
Patients who underwent gastrectomy with curative intent for GC were retrospectively evaluated. The N-Ratio categories were determined using the ROC curve method, and the area under the curve (AUC) was...
A total of 561 GC patients were included in the study, 57% had pN+ status, and 17.5% had <25 resected lymph nodes. N-Ratio, with a mean of 0.12, predicted survival with 74% accuracy (AUC=0.74; 95%CI 0...
N-Ratio influenced survival in GC patients, especially in advanced lymph node disease (N-Ratio 3). Considering that N-Ratio does not impact pN0 cases, individualized prognosis assessment is essential ...
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of lymph node dissection method on staging results, diagnosis of tumor metastasis in single or multiple N1 lymph nodes and survival rates in patients with non-s...
Patients with NSCLC who underwent anatomic resection between September 2014 and October 2019 were examined prospectively. All patients with similar clinico-demographic characteristics were randomly as...
There were no significant differences in N1 lymph node positivity between the two groups (p = 0.482). On average 9.08 lymph node sampling was performed in the surgical group and 2.39 in the pathology ...
It is easier to detect lymph node involvement without introducing formaldehyde into the sample. We recommend that N1 lymph node dissection be performed on fresh specimens to detect more lymph node inv...
Little is known about the host-tumor interaction in the lymph-node basin at a single cell level. This study examines single cell sequences in breast cancer nodal metastases of a patient with triple-ne...
The primary breast tumor, sentinel lymph node, an adjacent lymph node with metastatic involvement and a clinically normal-appearing lymph node were collected during surgery. Single-cell sequencing was...
14,016 cells were clustered into 6 cell subpopulations. Cancer cells demonstrated the molecular characteristics of TNBC basal B subtype and highly expressed genes in the MAPK signaling cascade. Tumor-...
Single-cell sequencing analysis suggested that the sentinel lymph node was the initial meeting site of tumor infiltration and immune response, where partial T lymphocytes perform anti-tumor activity, ...
The purpose was to determine what factors help predict benefit from preoperative MRI....
We conducted an IRB approved retrospective review of patients with breast cancer who underwent preoperative MRI (2018-2021). Patients were divided into a cohort of no new disease detected on MRI versu...
Of 420 patients with a new diagnosis of breast cancer who underwent preoperative MRI, 17% had new multicentric, multifocal, or contralateral disease detected. There was no difference between the two c...
Patients with nodal disease detected in their evaluation are more likely to have new multifocal, multicentric, or contralateral disease detected on MRI. The use of preoperative MRI may be particularly...
Cancer immunotherapies such as tumor vaccines, chimeric antigen receptor T cells and immune checkpoint blockades, have attracted tremendous attention. Among them, tumor vaccines prime immune response ...
