Axillary dissection is a surgical procedure that incises (opens) the armpit (axilla or axillary) to identify, examine, or remove lymph nodes (small glands, part of the lymphatic system, which filters cellular fluids).
What is bilateral axillary lymphnodes?
Bilateral axillary lymph nodes refer to lymph nodes located in the armpits on both sides of the body. These nodes play a crucial role in filtering and trapping harmful substances such as bacteria and cancer cells from the upper limbs, chest, breast, and upper abdomen. Swelling or tenderness in the bilateral axillary lymph nodes can be a sign of infection or disease.
Enlargement of the axillary lymph nodes could be caused by?
Caused for enlargement of axillary lymph nodes: - Infections in the whole-body will often cause the lymph nodes to be enlarged. This is due to perfectly normal immune-responses. - Infections in the glands of the breasts or on the skin of the chest. - Infections in the fingers, hands, and arms. - Breast cancer can spread to the axillary lymph nodes - Although not the most common place to be seen, some lymphomas can arise or spread these lymph nodes.
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.
Is breast cancer lymph gland cancer?
Please rephrase this question for it to make sense. Thanx
What are all the lymph nodes associated with the lymph drainage of the breast a simple list would be nice?
Some of the lymph nodes associated with the breast are: *Internal mammary *Pectoral *Subscapular *Central axillary *Lateral *Intraclavicular
What are metastatic deposits on the spine?
A metastatic deposit is the spread of cancer from the primary tumor. This spread is done via blood or lymph fluid.
I have breast cancer and i have to have my lymph nodes removed is there a hospital stay?
If you have breast cancer and you just had your lymph nodes removed, a hospital stay is very important.
