LYMPHOGRAPHY IN SURGICALLY UNRESECTABLE ADENOCARCINOMA OF THE EXOCRINE PANCREAS

Authors: NR Dunnick ( ) , K Horvath ( ) , G Head ( ) , R Bender ( )

Abstract

Bipedal lymphograms were performed on 28 consecutive previously untreated patients with biopsy proven and surgically unresectable carcinoma of the pancreas. Four of these patients had findings indicating lymph node metastases. In three of these 4 patients, the lymphogram provided the only evidence of metastatic disease. The information provided by bipedal lymphography may be useful in treatment planning.
