Whooping cough, caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis, is not directly linked to lymph node cancer. However, persistent infections and chronic inflammation can sometimes lead to complications that might affect the lymphatic system. While the disease itself does not cause lymph node cancer, any serious or prolonged illness should be discussed with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

What are the most common sites for mestastic breast cancer?

Breast cancer most commonly metastasises first to lymph nodes in the axilla of the same side as the affected breast. In more advanced disease, the cancer commonly metastasises to lymph nodes in other regions, to bone, to the liver, and/or to the lungs, and later possibly also to the contralateral breast and to other organs. When there is no evident lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis, the sentinel node may be examined to confirm absence of axillary lymph node metastasis. The lymph nodes in the axilla drain fluid (lymph) from the breast by interconnecting lymph vessels, and the "sentinel node" is the first node to receive lymph from the particular tumour. If there is no tumour in the sentinel node (and no signs of metastasis to other sites), breast cancer has a very good chance of cure after treatment.


What is a precarinal lymph node?

A precarinal lymph node is a lymph node located near the tracheal bifurcation in the chest. It plays a role in filtering and trapping potentially harmful substances, such as cancer cells or bacteria, that may be present in the lymphatic system.
