In this case we report the detection of lymph node metastases in a 52 years old patient with mycosis fungoides utilising 18F- FDG-PET/CT which led to a change in the management of the patient.

background: the impact of positive intramammary lymph node (im ln) on the prognosis of patients with breast cancer has been debated for years; likewise, the standard management of patients with positive im ln remains unclear, especially when it is identified by preoperative imaging or by sentinel lymph node biopsy. the present study aims at reviewing the level of concurrent involvement of im ln...

OBJECTIVES To explore the rule of subcarinal lymph node metastasis in thoracic oesophageal cancer and its clinical significance in the radical resection of oesophageal cancer. METHODS We retrospectively analysed 2223 patients with oesophageal cancer who were admitted to Henan Cancer Hospital during 2004-2011 and underwent surgery as the first treatment option.

PURPOSE To investigate the effects of lymph node metastasis, skip metastasis, and other factors related to lymph node status on survival in patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC) and extended lymph node dissection (eLND). MATERIALS AND METHODS RC and eLND were performed in 85 patients with a diagnosis of bladder cancer. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were determ...
