A prospective evaluation of palliative outcomes for surgery of advanced malignancies.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The use of lymphatic mapping (LM) is being investigated to improve the staging of colorectal cancer (CRC) and thereby identify patients who might benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. This study evaluated in vivo, laparoscopic, and ex vivo approaches for the ultrastaging of CRC. METHODS:Seventy-five CRC patie...
