What does it mean to have lymph node metastasis (1/9) in the right region?

Right zone lymph node metastasis (1/9) means that a lymph node biopsy examination was performed to send 9 lymph nodes on the right side, and metastasis was seen in 1. Right zone lymph node biopsy may refer to sentinel lymph node biopsy, or it may refer to a lymph node sweep of the right side of the tumor organ with pathology. Right regional sentinel lymph node biopsy refers to 9 lymph nodes on the right side that were excised during surgery and sent for rapid pathologic biopsy, and metastasis was seen in 1 of the 9 lymph nodes after frozen sectioning and observation of the sections. This result suggests that regional lymph node dissection may be needed, and postoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy may be required. Patients are advised to bring the pathology report to consult with their specialists and choose the appropriate treatment plan according to their condition and individual needs.
