Assessment of lymph flow has proven challenging. Transit-time ultrasound technique (TTUT) is the first technique that provides real-time quantitative lymphatic flow values. In cardiothoracic surgery and neurosurgery, this technique has tremendous clinical value in assessing surgery quality and predicting outcomes.

The incidence of chylous ascites varies according to the type of surgery and the extent of the lymphadenectomy. The first choice of treatment is a conservative procedure - total parenteral nutrition or a strict low-fat diet.

To evaluate the efficacy of lymphangiography combined with fine needle aspiration biopsy and computer tomography (CT) for lymph node staging in clinically localized prostate cancer. Prospective evaluation of nodal involvement was carried out using standard bipedal lymphangiography combined with fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in 70 patients (aged 47 to 75 years, mean age 63 years) with apparently locally confined prostate cancer before intended radical prostatectomy. Sixty-four patients also underwent computer tomography.

Proper breast cancer surgery should include removal of at least ten axillary lymph nodes according to recommendations given by DBCG (The Danish Breast Cancer Group). The present study evaluated the results of counting the lymph nodes peroperatively on radiographs of the axillary tissue compared to the final pathological examination, the latter being considered the "gold standard". Since agreement between the two methods was found in only 66 out of 90 patients (Kappa value 0.

They studied 132 dissections including 97 injections, 210 cases records of gastric carcinoma, 8 lymphographies by ultrafluid Lipiodol and 17 peroperative injections of vital staining. The system of drainage proposed by Rouvière was on the whole confirmed; however, one should emphasise the doubling of the hepatic chain, the existence of long collectors which bypass a relay in the left gastric artery, the importance of the posterior gastric artery which transmits the lymphatics of the splenic chain.
