Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a simple and relatively safe technique that emerged as a standard in the management of early breast cancer. Indications are becoming larger and because this particular node provides significant epidemiological, clinical, pathological, educational and prognostic information efforts must be done to identify it even when a a complete axillary clearance is planned.

Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection is increasingly used to treat early-stage colorectal cancer. This study evaluated the feasibility of endoscopic submucosal dissection in this setting and the determinants of lymph node metastasis.
Methods: We reviewed patients who underwent colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection for early-stage colorectal cancer at a tertiary center between 2011 and 2023.

Lymph node metastasis (LNM) significantly affects the prognosis and clinical management of breast cancer (BC) patients. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) associated with LNM in BC and evaluate their potential diagnostic and prognostic value. Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS databases, to assess the role of miRNAs in LNM BC.

Objective: To comprehensively investigate the predictive value of thyroid hormone sensitivity parameters for cervical lymph node metastasis in patients diagnosed with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) undergoing total thyroidectomy and neck lymph node dissection.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted involving patients diagnosed with DTC and evaluated for cervical lymph node metastasis. Relevant demographic, tumour, lymph node and thyroid hormone sensitivity parameter data were extracted from medical records and laboratory reports.
