title: [Metastases in the axillary lymph nodes as the first manifestation of cancer].
abstract: The paper discusses the procedures used for detecting primary tumor in 27 patients who presented with regional lymph node involvement. Both clinical data and those of the histologic and electron microscopic examination of tissue samples from the breast and involved lymph nodes were used. The examination established neoplasm in 15 cases and failed in 12. Most commonly, axillary lymph node metastases resulted from breast carcinoma. Relevant procedures for examination and treatment were developed versus type, size and site of tumor.
