Extension lymphatique pelvienne et lombo-aortique dans le cancer de la trompe : topographie et implications chirurgicales

Discussion and conclusions. - In patients with primary tubal carcinoma, the left para-aortic chain above the level of the inferior mesenteric artery is the most frequently involved. A complete lymphadenectomy (including all pelvic and para-aortic chains up to the level of the left renal vein) should be performed in patients with primary tubal carcinoma, even in patients with stage I disease.
