DOI: 10.1007/s12020-022-03045-4
Abstract: Lymph node metastasis is common in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Some metastatic lymph nodes may present extranodal extension (ENE). The clinical role of ENE in PTC has yet to be clearly identified. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/dote/doaa087.114
Abstract: Clinical diagnosis of lymph node metastasis has a great significance particularly in cT1 or cT2 esophageal cancer patients, since their clinical “N” diagnosis determines the treatment strategy according to the Esophageal cancer practice guidelines 2017… read more here.

DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-11051-5
Abstract: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) staging does not account for the number of positive nodes. The prognostic value of quantitative metastatic nodal burden is unknown. The National Cancer Database was retrospectively queried from 2004–2016 to identify patients… read more here.
