背景：淋巴结转移分布的研究很少。本研究的目的是评估淋巴结转移的位置对中低位直肠癌患者预后的意义。方法：我们将近端淋巴结转移（PLNp）定义为上级直肠和肠系膜下淋巴结转移沿着供血血管主干，将直肠系膜淋巴结转移（MLNp）定义为直肠系膜内淋巴结转移。结果：在总共797名患者中，67名患者（8.4%）鉴定出PLNp。年龄
Background: Few studies have focused on distribution of lymph node metastasis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic significance of the location of involved lymph nodes in patients with advanced mid or low rectal cancer.Methods: We defined proximal lymph node involvement (PLNp) as superior rectal and inferior mesenteric lymph node metastasis along the trunks of the supplying vessel, and mesorectal lymph node involvement (MLNp) as lymph node metastasis located within the mesorectum.Results: PLNp was identified in 67 patients (8.4%) of total 797 patients.
