The papillary cancer and the follicular cancer are the most common forms of thyroid malignitet. Based on 30-year follow up of 430 patients, who underwent differentiated thyroid cancer surgery, the incidence of the lymph nodes metastases and the rate of postoperative recurrence of the disease was studied and the performance criteria of modified radical lymph node dissection of the neck were specified. Papillary cancer patients were 77.2% (332 people) and follicular cancer patients were 22.8% (98%). At the time of the diagnosis 8.2% (35 people) of the patients had palpable lymph nodes metastases. All patients with lymph nodes metastases, which developed after the surgery, underwent successful treatment with a modified lymph node dissection of the neck. In none of the cases the lymph node metastases led to a fatal outcome.

Introduction: The core objective of this study was to precisely locate metastatic lymph nodes, identify potential areas in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients that may not require radiotherapy, and propose a hypothesis for reduced target volume radiotherapy on the basis of these findings. Ultimately, we reassessed the differences in dosimetry of organs at risk (OARs) between reduced target volume (reduced CTV2) radiotherapy and standard radiotherapy.
Methods And Materials: A total of 209 patients participated in the study.

Introduction: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is commonly used for diagnosing mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Despite a low complication rate, severe hemorrhage can occur which is reported in this literature, particularly in hypervascular conditions like Castleman disease.
Methods: A 54-year-old male with idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease underwent EBUS-TBNA for mediastinal lymph node sampling.

Background: Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is a common pathogen causing non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections, primarily affecting the lungs. Disseminated MAC disease occurs mainly in immunocompromised individuals, such as those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, hematological malignancies, or those positive for anti-interferon-γ antibodies. However, its occurrence in solid organ transplant recipients is uncommon.

Background: This study aimed to explore the relationship of cervical tumor lesion location (CTLL) with bilateral parametrial involvement (PI) and pelvic lymph node metastasis (LNM).
Methods: The study retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic and imaging data of patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) retrieved from multiple centers. According to the CTLL, patients were allocated to three groups: a middle one third group, a unilaterally dominant group, and the entire-region group.
