Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women. Effective screening programs can help cancer detection in early phases and reduce death. Metastasis to lymph nodes is one of the most prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery. Also, a positive result from pathology report alert oncologist as a cause of death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been widely ...

Little is known about the time when a malig nant growth may first release tumor emboli into the lymphatic system. The problem can be inves tigated by employing the technic of anterior cham ber inoculation, since the primary tumor may be readily destroyed by eye enucleation or x-radiation. Mouse tumor C-1300 appeared suitable for this purpose, since it metastasizes to the cervical lymph nodes of...

Immune system plays crucial role in body and lymph nodes are essential parts of this system for combating pathogens. However, no study has ever been conducted on morphometric development of sheep lymph nodes in fetal period. Thus, this study attempted to examine the morphometric characteristics of a number of important lymph nodes of some lymphocenters of sheep during fetal period. To this end,...

Canine T-zone lymphoma (TZL) is a mature T-cell in dogs. The diagnosis and sub-classification are impossible without biopsy or immunophenotyping by flow cytometry. An 11-year-old, spayed, female Golden Retriever presented with lymph node enlargement. Clinical examination was consistent canine multicentric lymphoma. However, revealed positive for CD3, CD4, CD5, CD8, CD21, TCRαβ, MHCII but negati...

background: to evaluate the efficacy of color doppler ultrasound (cdus) in differentiating benign and malignant cervical lymph nodes by detecting differences in blood flow patterns. materials and methods: in this cross‑sectional prospective study, 25 untreated patients with clinical evidence of cervical lymphadenopathy were evaluated. cdus was performed for 80 cervical lymph nodes. the gray sca...

Experimental immune ovarian failure induced in CBA mice by either administration of xenogenic anti-ovarian antibodies or immunization with allogenic ovarian extracts impaired the meiotic maturation of oocytes and increased apoptosis of follicular cells. Immunization was accompanied with the inflammation and active immune reaction, as shown by the enlargement of regional lymph nodes, the increas...
