[Lymphographic interpretation of benign lymphnodes lesions (author's transl)]

Clinical, lymphographic and morphologic non tumor induced lymphnode lesions of 164 patients are described, and a roentgenographic morphological correlation is performed. Diffuse non specific inflammatory and reactivy lymphnode lesions are divided into three groups. These changes cannot be distinguished from lymphnodes with micrometastases. Typical cirteria for segmental lymphnode fibrosis and hyperplasia are described. Fatty lymphnode degeneration may be segmental or diffuse, their characteristics are presented as well.
