Prognostic significance of number of lymph node metastasis on survival in patients with pathological T3 esophageal carcinoma
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the number of metastatic lymph nodes (MLN) and other risk factors on survival in patients with pathological T3 (pT3) esophageal carcinoma who were treated by esophagectomy. We analyzed 70 patients who received primary curative resection for pT3 eso...

| Zusammenfassung: | The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the number of metastatic lymph nodes (MLN) and other risk factors on survival in patients with pathological T3 (pT3) esophageal carcinoma who were treated by esophagectomy. We analyzed 70 patients who received primary curative resection for pT3 esophageal cancer from 1997 to 2011. The prognostic role of age, gender, tumor location, cell type, pathological lymph node status (pN), number of MLNs ( |
