## Background and Objectives: The incidence and significance of lymph node involvement in patients with primary peritoneal adenocarcinoma (PPA) are unknown. The aim of the current study is to report on the incidence and significance of clinically or surgically detectable lymphadenopathy in women w
## BACKGROUND. Although, to the authors' knowledge, no prospective randomized clinical trial has demonstrated improvement in survival following the radical dissection of lymph nodes in the treatment of cancer patients, lymphadenectomy is still routinely performed for curative purposes. For many yea
highlights the need for and ability of primary tumor characteristics to predict the incidence of regional lymph node metastases. To develop reliable criteria for patients who do not require axillary lymph node dissection and to gauge the usefulness of axillary lymph node dissection, primary tumor ch
Chromosome banding analysis of primary tumors and axillary lymph node metastases from 10 breast cancer patients revealed abnormal karyotypes in all samples with cytogenetic similarities between the primary tumor and the metastasis in all informative pairs. Although karyotypically unrelated clones we
