LOGISTICS OF LYMPHOGENIC BREAST CANCER METASTASIS
The lymph circulatory bed of the axillary area, peripheral lymph structure and its flow properties of 78 breast cancer patients were studied. Such factors as total protein, albumin, globulin, fibrinogen, bilirubin, cholesterol, urea, creatinine, glucose, sodium and potassium were defined to estimate the lymph structure influence on its viscosity. The research proved that during breast cancer both the quantity of sentinel afferent lymph nodes and their diameter increases. Neo-lymphatic angiogenesis is a prognosis factor for IIIB breast cancer stage.
