Title: Morphofunctional Characteristics of the Vessels of the Subareolar Lymphatic Plexus in Breast Cancer with Metastasis to the Lymph Nodes of the Axillary Lymphatic Collector. Author: Mnikhovich MV, Erofeeva LM, Shiripenko IA, Bezuglova TV, Lozina MV, Sidorova OA. Journal: Bull Exp Biol Med; 2024 Jul; 177(3):374-378. PubMed ID: 39138790. Abstract: The subareolar Sappey's plexus was studied using color lymphography and immunohistochemical methods with a panel of antibodies to podoplanin, smooth muscle actin, low molecular weight cytokeratin AE1/AE3, and GATA3 on archival material obtained during radical mastectomies and sectoral resections with lymph node dissection from 86 patients diagnosed with non-special type breast cancer. At the macro- and microscopic levels, the connection between the subareolar lymphatic plexus and the lymphatic system of the breast parenchyma has been demonstrated. In triple negative breast cancer with metastases to the axillary lymph nodes, the involvement of subareolar lymphatic plexus into lymphogenous metastasis to the lymph nodes of the axillary lymphatic collector was shown.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
