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

The management of regional lymph node metastases in breast cancer and gastric cancer is reviewed. Regional lymph node metastasis is a critical prognostic factor in these diseases, but there is an apparent discrepancy in the efficacy of regional lymph node dissection between them. A number of prospec
## Abstract Metastatic potential of breast cancer may be associated with specific genomic alterations and the earliest metastases are likely to be found in the sentinel lymph nodes (SLN). Using array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), we compared the genomes of primary breast invasive duct c
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
Flow cytometric DNA content measurements have demonstrated extensive DNA ploidy heterogeneity in primary breast carcinomas. However, little is known at the molecular level about the clonal relationship between these tumor cell subpopulations, or about the molecular genetic changes associated with an
