[Preparation and documentation of lymph nodes in breast cancers. Experiences in pathologic-anatomic practice].
The following conclusions were drawn from analysis of 292 specimens of amputated female breasts and statistical evaluation of the clinical data: Preparation of lymph nodes from unfixed material should be left to medical preparation engineers. All data on sizes and numbers should be recorded for documentation with high accuracy. Communication of clinical data has often been insufficient. It has happened all too often that no diagnostic extirpation was undertaken, and the time interval between such extirpation and radical surgery was found to be too long in some hospitals.
