The human lymphatic system is a huge network of tubes that drain and transfer protein-rich fluid from tissues to lymph nodes. When the machinery malfunctions and the lymphatic vessels fail to drain properly, fluid builds up in the tissues, causing painful swelling known as lymphedema.
The body's lymph nodes serve as one of its first lines of defence against sickness. From these biological police stations, immune cells are sent out to repel invaders. However, the majority of metastatic tumours also start in lymph nodes.
This is an ideal treatment for young and socially-active members of society who need treatment for tumours of the thyroid, parathyroid glands, parapharyngeal space tumours, submandibular gland removal, benign neck swellings like the branchial cleft cyst and neck dissection for metastatic cer
Surgery for children with kidney tumours has always been handled with extreme care. While there is a growing body of evidence that children who have extended lymph node sampling during surgery have better outcomes, some have questioned whether removing more lymph nodes as part of cancer stag

Researchers revealed in a study that offers significant insights into the causes of human lymph node function decline with ageing and the effects on immune system performance.
The reasons why human lymph nodes become less functional with age and the effects on the efficiency of our immune system are the subject of a recent study conducted by researchers at Uppsala University.
Washington [US], October 15 (ANI): Cancer cells use an unusual mechanism to migrate into new tissue and form metastases there. The same process probably also keeps some immune cells on their toes. According to the study, certain structures, the centrioles, increase in number. This makes it e
