[Prognostic significance of sinus histiocytosis and lymphocyte predominance in lymph nodes of patients with laryngeal carcinoma].
The prognostic value of morphological parameters such as sinus histiocytosis and nonspecific lymphocyte predominance in removed neck lymph nodes in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx was presented. Long term results of the treatment in group of 179 patients have shown that regional lymph node reactivity (sinus histiocytosis and reactive lymphadenitis) is a good prognostic factor, while lack of stimulation is a factor of bad prognosis.
