## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The presence of lymph node (LN) metastases in esophageal cancer has important prognostic and treatment implications. However, the optimal number of LNs that should be examined for accurate staging is controversial. In the current study, the association between survival an

It is important not to overinterpret the good survival outcomes reported by Kawahara et al. [1] for three-vs. two-field lymphadenectomy in esophageal cancer. They performed a retrospective review and found that patients who had less than four positive nodes had prolonged survival following three-fie

A prospective study was performed analyzing resected extrapulmonary lymph nodes of 544 operated lung carcinoma patients. Volume of lymph nodes was determined by weight. Lymph nodes were cut in serial sections 300 pm thick, and the volume of tumour metastasis in each resected lymph node was computed
