Validation of lymphovascular invasion as a predictor of lymph-node invasion in squamous cell carcinoma of the penis
The current study validates LVI as an independent predictor of LNI in SCCP. LVI increases the accuracy of LNI predictions in the overall cohort as well as in organ-confined and non-organ confined stages. However, stage and grade even with the added consideration of LVI are not accurate enough to provide LNI prediction in individual patients.
