MeSH headings : Animals; Dog Diseases / diagnosis; Dog Diseases / pathology; Dogs; Lymph Nodes / cytology; Lymph Nodes / pathology; Lymphatic Metastasis; Melanoma / secondary; Melanoma / veterinary; Mouth Neoplasms / pathology; Mouth Neoplasms / veterinary; Neoplasm Staging; Predictive Value of Tests; Retrospective Studies; Sensitivity and Specificity
TL;DR: Results suggest that lymph node size alone is insufficient for accurate clinical staging of oral malignant melanoma in dogs; cytologic or histologic examination of regional lymph nodes should routinely be performed, regardless of size of those nodes. (via Semantic Scholar)
