Lymphatic Drainage of the Abdominal Wall Within the Extended Nodal Dissection Template During Prostate Cancer Surgery-Mapping Overlapping Patterns

Within the ePLND template there is a 56% overlap, on a nodal level, with the lymphatic drainage from the abdominal wall. Three fluorescent LNs also contained metastases, indicating that the lymphatic drainage of healthy tissues directly converges with the drainage of the primary PCa.

Abstract

Within the ePLND template there is a 56% overlap, on a nodal level, with the lymphatic drainage from the abdominal wall. Three fluorescent LNs also contained metastases, indicating that the lymphatic drainage of healthy tissues directly converges with the drainage of the primary PCa.
