title: [Metastasis of prostatic cancer (based on lymphographic data)].
abstract: A lymphographic examination of 56 patients with prostatic carcinoma established the incidence of lymphogenous metastases for different stages of primary tumor advancement: there were no metastases in patients with stage I tumors; metastases were found in 3 out of 16 cases of stage II tumors; in 4 out of 12 with stage III tumors and in 13 out of 21 patients with stage IV tumors.
