Background and Objectives: Involvement of lymph nodes is an important prognostic factor in the most cancers, including colorectal cancer. In the recent years, invasion to blood and lymphatic vessels has been shown to predict involvement of lymph nodes and the number of involved nodes has been less studied issue. The aim of this study was determination of the relationship between the size of col...

871 mesenteric lymph nodes taken from 110 native cattle from Urmia slaughter-house with differentages were examined for Linguatula serrata infection.
