Abstract Context.—The etiology of lymph node infarction may be difficult or impossible to determine by histologic examination. Lymph node infarction is followed by malignant lymphoma in some but not all patients. The role of immunohistochemistry in the evaluation of lymph node infarction is not well defined. Although it is widely believed that necrotic tissue is not suitable for immunohistochemical study, this view may be inaccurate. Objective.—To determine whether lymphoid antigens are preserved in infarcted lymph nodes and to determine the utility of immunohistochemical staining in the evaluation of lymph node infarction. Design.—Retrospective immunohistochemical study of infarcted lymph nodes using archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue. Setting.—Academic medical center. Patients.—Eleven adult patients with lymph node infarction retrieved from pathology files. Main Outcome Measures.—Results of immunohistochemistry, diagnosis of lymphoma. Results.—Preservation of lymphoid antigens was observed in 4 of 6 cases of lymph node infarction associated with malignant lymphoma, including 3 of 5 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and 1 case of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Nonspecific staining was not encountered. In 1 case, in which an infarcted lymph node showed a benign pattern of lymphoid antigen expression, lymphoma has not developed after 5 years. Conclusion.—Lymphoid antigens are frequently preserved in cases of lymph node infarction, and immunohistochemical study of infarcted lymph nodes may provide clinically useful information.

Background. The studies on risk factors and metastatic rate of retropancreatic (number 13) lymph nodes in gastric adenocarcinoma were few and the results were still controversial. The aim of this study was to elucidate risk factors and prognostic significance of number 13 lymph nodes in gastric adenocarcinoma.Method. From January 2000 to December 2011, 114 patients who underwent gastrectomy with number 13 lymph nodes dissection were enrolled and followed up to January 2014. Patients were grouped according to whether number 13 lymph nodes were positive or negative.Results. The metastatic rate of number 13 lymph nodes was 22.8%. In multivariate analysis, pT stage (P=0.027), pN stage (P=0.005), and number 11p (P=0.015) lymph nodes were independent risk factors of positive number 13 lymph nodes. In all patients (P<0.001) and subpopulation with TNM III stage (P=0.007), positive number 13 lymph nodes had significantly worse prognosis than those of patients with negative number 13 LNs in Kaplan-Meier analysis.Conclusion. Number 13 lymph nodes had relatively high metastatic rate and led to poor prognosis. pT stage, pN stage, and number 11p lymph nodes were independent risk factors of positive number 13 lymph nodes.

e15549 Background: Role of metastasectomy in pts with mBRAF metastatic CRC is still controversial. We performed analysis of prospective multicentric database of pts with mBRAF mCRC to evaluate the efficacy of metastasectomy in such group of pts in the real clinical practice. Methods: We analyzed a database of pts with mCRC in 7 cancer clinics in Russia and chose pts with metastasectomy with different mutational status. The primary endpoints were disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), which were calculated from the time of metastasectomy. Analysis was performed with the SPSS v.20 software package. Results: The study included 126 pts: 26 pts with mBRAF, 57 pts with mRAS and 43 pts with wtRAS/BRAF. Pts with mBRAF more often had synchronous metastases (50%/19,3/11,6%, p<0,01), N2 status (38,5%/11%/19,6%, p=0,04). In mBRAF cohort all but 1 pt had V600 mutations; peritonectomy performed in 19,2%, liver resection – in 34,6%, lung resection, ovariectomy, metastasectomy in brain and retroperitoneal lymph nodes dissection with removal of the local relapse – over 11,5%; R0 resection was achieved in 88,5%. Median DFS was 7 months in mBRAF pts, 14 months in mRAS and not achieved in wtRAS/BRAF group treated (HR 2,1, 95%CI 1,5-3.1, p<0.01). Median OS was 26 months in mBRAF, 38 months in mRAS and not achieved in wtRAS/BRAF group (HR 1,5, 95%CI 1,0-2,4, p=0.06). Perioperative chemotherapy didn’t improve DFS in pts with mBRAF (HR 1,9, 95%CI 0,67-5,7, p=0,2). The best median DFS were in pts after ovariectomy – 10 months, the worst - after retroperitoneal lymph nodes dissection with removal of the local relapse – 2 months. Conclusions: Prognosis of pts with mBRAF after metastasectomy is worse than with other mutational phenotypes. However in selected cases metastasectomy might be considered in such aggressive mCRC.
