The feasibility of determining SLNs using LS and an intraoperative gamma probe in patients with cutaneous SCC was shown. Unnecessary elective lymph node dissection and possible complications could be avoided in 19 patients.
Epithelioid cell granulomas may be associated with several neoplasms. Lymphomas may mimic or are associated with epithelioid granulomas. In this article the authors report a child with granulomatous reaction in B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma and intracardiac thrombosis. Although cancer alone is a risk factor for thromboembolism, thrombosis is a multifactorial disorder with both hereditary and acquired risk factors. This is the first reported case of intracardiac thrombosis with MTHFR A1298C and factor XIII V34L mutations together with granulomatous reaction in non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
