  • Title: [Results of gastric lymphography with particular reference to gastric carcinoma (author's transl)].
    Author: Schacht U, Jünemann A, Becker HJ, Huth F, Palomba PP, Kremer K.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1976 May 07; 101(19):725-9. PubMed ID: 1261410.
    Abstract:
    The regional lymph nodes of the stomach can be visualised radiologically by injecting Lipiodol Ultra-Fluid into the submucous layer of the stomach wall through a gastroscope. Lymphography was performed in gastrologically healthy probands (n = 10), in patients with gastroduodenal ulceration (n = 17), and in patients with gastric carcinoma (n = 35). In 28 of the gastric carcinoma patients the first order lymph nodes were demonstrated, in 21 cases the second order and in 15 cases the third order whereas defects in uptake indicated metastases in 16 patients which could be histologically confirmed in 13. Gastric lymphography may contribute to the indication for operation if metastases are suspected in the second and third order lymph nodes as nodes along the upper border of the pancreas and the coeliac trunk are very difficult to remove radically.
