Abstract:
The excision of sentinel lymph nodes has a growing relevance in the diagnosis of oral and oropharyngeal cancer in cases of clinical N0 necks. The validity of sentinel node biopsy as minimally invasive staging tool of the neck in T1-2 tumours can be considered as proven due to most recent international multicentre studies. The present paper describes the technique and follows the newest European guide lines.

01:15Secondary Lymphoid Organs
Secondary organs, including lymph nodes, the spleen, and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), work harmoniously to protect us from disease and infection.
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
