Introduction to Radical Lymph

Therefore, most robotic procedures, including radical lymphadenectomy and reconstructions, are based on those of laparoscopic surgery.

Less-radical lymph node dissection decreases the associated morbidity of PLND, especially the risk of lower-leg lymphoedema, which affects severely patient quality of life.

BackgroundRadical lymph node dissection (LND) along the left recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is surgically demanding and can be associated with substantial postoperative morbidity.

Gastrectomy with radical lymphadenectomy was applied as conversion therapy when peritoneal lavage cytology-negative (CY0) and P0 were diagnosed with re-SL, with the aim of achieving R0 resection.

Esophagectomy, including complete primary tumor removal and radical lymphadenectomy with or without cervical lymphadenectomy, has been accepted as a radical esophagectomy that remains a standard treatment choice for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) (1,2).

Chylous ascites is a low-frequency post-operative complication, mainly associated with oncological procedures and radical lymphadenectomies.

Indeed, surgical practice is changing in stage III patients, since, according to recent evidence, there is no survival benefit in radical lymph node dissection following a positive sentinel lymph node dissection.

The prognosis of carrying out less radical lymphadenectomy was calculated according to three groups: exclusion of proximal thoracic nodes (group 1), minimal abdominal lymphadenectomy (group 2), and minimal abdominal and thoracic lymphadenectomy (group 3).

The patient underwent left parotidectomy with modified radical lymph node dissection.

After careful assessment of the anatomy, a right hemicolectomy with radical lymphadenectomy was performed.

We collected data on 829 consecutive gastric cancer patients who underwent TLTG reconstructed by the Roux-en-Y method with radical lymphadenectomy between January 2010 and December 2016 in 13 hospitals.

Total gastrectomy with radical lymph node dissection was performed.

Radical lymphadenectomy was performed and a pericardial flap was used for coverage of the bronchial stump.

The patient underwent resection of the extrahepatic bile ducts with concomitant radical lymphadenectomy and Roux-en-Y cholangiojejunostomy.

BACKGROUND Radical lymph nodes dissection (RLND) is the standard procedure for regional control of disease in patients with metastatic melanoma (stage III).

The result of a previous randomized trial concluded that radical lymph node dissection may not improve the survival of patients with early stage non-smallcell lung cancer.

We describe the results of post-operative morbidity, mortality, and survival after anatomical resection and radical lymphadenectomy.

In this retrospective review, we compared the outcomes of radical lymphadenectomy of the mediastinum, including upper mediastinal lymphadenectomy, between patients with AEG and those with SCC.

This study aimed to compare survival rates according to metastatic lymph node position following radical lymph node dissection for stage III colon cancers.

Video S1 concentrates on the key vascular steps needed to perform a radical lymphadenectomy safely.

This incision is indicated for radical lymphadenectomy and may be combined with other neck surgeries.

Common nodal status assessment strategies include physical exam, US CT, MRI, sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) and radical lymphadenectomy.

Conclusion: Preservation of left colic artery not only can ensure radical lymph node dissection efficacy under the condition of similar operation time and blood loss, but also can effectively reduce the incidence of postoperative anastomotic leakage for rectal cancer patients after neoadjuvant therapy.

Among the different type of resections, lobectomy with radical lymph node resections is the strategy of choice, when anatomically and clinically feasible, based on the results of the randomized controlled trial (RCT) from the Lung Cancer Study Group (LCSG) (1).

Disease-specific survival after radical lymphadenectomy for penile cancer: prediction by lymph node count and density.

Thus, we performed subtotal esophagectomy with radical lymph node dissection through a left thoracotomy.

Careful ultrasonographic lymphatic mapping of the neck by an experienced radiologist allows a targeted, compartment-oriented (or selective) lymph node dissection to be performed instead of the more extensive modified radical lymph node dissection.

In the diagnostic process one should consider performing a sentinel node biopsy with possible subsequent radical lymphadenectomy in the case of metastases detection.

Background Completion total gastrectomy with radical lymphadenectomy for remnant gastric cancer is a technically demanding procedure.

In fact, radical lymphadenectomy may have no therapeutic benefit in patients with early-stage EC who have low probability of lymph nodes involvement; subsequently, SLN mapping may decrease unnecessary lymph node dissections.

Gastrectomy with radical lymph node dissection is the most promising treatment avenue for patients with gastric cancer.

The cornerstone of curative care for esophageal cancer is neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by esophagectomy with a radical lymphadenectomy.

All patients had nodal staging (N) by radical lymph node dissection.

MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 966 patients who underwent laparoscopic resection with radical lymph node dissection for stage I, II, and III colon cancers between 2009 and 2014 at a tertiary teaching hospital.
