Original Source: Validity of 6(th) edition of UICC TNM classification system for medullary thyroid carcinoma: A proposal for intraoperative evaluation of T category.
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) accounts for 1.4% of all thyroid malignancies in Japan. Here, we studied the validity of a staging system evaluated preoperatively (Stage), intraoperatively (intra-Stage), and pathologically (pStage) based on the 6(th) and 7(th) UICC TNM classifications. One hundred and nineteen MTC patients who did not show distant metastasis at diagnosis and underwent locally curative surgery were enrolled in this study (average follow-up period: 173.4 months). Twenty-year clinical (not b...

How breast cancer spreads: Researchers find key to lymph node metastasis in mice
The invasion of cancer cells into the lymph vessels that connect the breast to surrounding lymph nodes is the first step leading to the metastasis, or spread, of cancer throughout the body. Metastasis...
Breast Cancer Metastasis Stopped In Mouse Model Of Breast Cancer
The spread of breast cancer to distant organs within the body, an event that often leads to death, appears in many cases to involve the loss of a key protein, according to UC San Francisco researchers...
Breast Cancer Risk Linked To Early-Life Diet, Metabolic Syndrome
Striking new evidence suggesting that diet and related factors early in life can boost the risk for breast cancer - totally independent of the body's production of the hormone estrogen - has been unco...
