Improved Survival for Children and Young Adults With T-Lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Results From the Children’s Oncology Group AALL0434 Methotrexate Randomization We retrospectively collected ...

Systematic mediastinal lymph node dissection (LND) or sampling is currently recommended for patients with early-stage non–small cell lung cancer. We aimed to investigate whether no mediastinal LND was ...

Lymph node dissections, or lymphadenectomies, are surgical procedures that play an important role in cancer treatments. A healthcare professional will remove the lymph nodes and check a tissue sample ...

The medical term for cancer that has spread is "metastasis." Knowing whether lung cancer is in lymph nodes, and which lymph nodes it has spread to, helps doctors assign the cancer a stage and ...

Trials evaluating the omission of completion axillary-lymph-node dissection in patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer and sentinel-lymph-node metastases have been compromised by limited ...

Investigators proposed that lymph node dissection should be included as part of radical cystectomy for patients with NMIBC. Lymph node dissection during radical cystectomy (RC) may improve oncologic ...

The role of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) in patients with localized prostate cancer remains controversial. Although guidelines are increasingly recommending extended PLND alongside radical ...

According to a new analysis, PLND does not impact recurrence-free survival but may reduce metastatic spread in intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer. The benefit of PLND is most evident in ...

Skipping standard axillary lymph node dissection led to very low rates of axillary recurrence in patients with node-positive breast cancer who became node-negative following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, ...
