Tumor Cells Metastasize from Lymph Nodes
Cancer Discov.
2018 Jun.
Abstract
Two mouse studies have found that tumor cells can metastasize via the lymph nodes. One study demonstrated that cancer cells from lymph-node metastases accounted for most cells in lung metastases. The other study found that tumor cells can spread from the lymph nodes to the lungs by entering the bloodstream.
