| 영문 | benign tumor | 한글 | 양성종양 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 발육속도가 완만하여 성장에 한계가 있고, 주위와의 경계가 명확하며, 다른 조직으로 퍼지지 않으며, 침윤이나 전이를 일으키지 아니하는 종양. 섬유종이나 지방종 따위가 전형적인 예이다. 양성종양은 종양이 존재한다고 해도 1차적으로 숙주의 생명을 위협하는 일은 없다. 양성종양의 발육형식은 주위의 조직간에 왕래하는 일이 없이 주위의 조직을 밀어내며 증식한다. 발육속도는 완만하며 전이하거나 절제 후 재발하는 일이 극히 드물다. 종양성분은 변이체이긴 하지만 성숙한 정상세포와 거의 다른 것이 없다. 전신에 대한 영향은 악성종양의 경우 어느 정도 발육했을 때 전신의 영양상태가 손상되어 카켁시아가 되지만 양성종양의 경우 이런 일은 거의 없다. 양성종양과 악성종양의 성상의 차이에 엄밀한 경계는 없고, 경계경변으로 보이는 종양도 있다. |

| LN | Lymph Node |
| hilum of lymph node | The depressed area of the surface of a lymph node through which the efferent lymphatics emerge from the medulla and through which blood vessels enter and leave the node. Synonym: hilum nodi lymphatici. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nasolabial lymph node | One of the facial lymph nodes located near the junction of the superior labial and facial arteries. Synonym: nodus nasolabialis, nasolabial node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| suprapyloric lymph node | A lymph node located above the pylorus. Synonym: nodus suprapyloricus, suprapyloric node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| syndrome, mucocutaneous lymph node | A syndrome of unknown origin, mainly affecting young children, causing fever, reddening of the eyes more than (conjunctivitis), lips and mucous membranes of the mouth, ulcerative gum disease (gingivitis), swollen glands in the neck (cervical more than lymphadenopathy), and a rash that is raised and bright red (maculoerythematous) in a glove-and-sock fashion over the skin of the hands and feet which becomes hard, swollen (edematous), and peels off. Also called kawasaki's disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| intermediate lacunar lymph node | A lymph node of the external iliac group located between the external iliac artery and vein at the vascular lacuna. Synonym: nodus lacunaris intermedius, intermediate lacunar node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eggshell lymph node calcification | <radiology> Silicosis, sarcoid, treated Hodgkin's lymphoma (12 Dec 1998) |
| tuberculosis, lymph node | Infection of the lymph nodes by tuberculosis. Tuberculous infection of the cervical lymph nodes is scrofula. (12 Dec 1998) |
| jugulodigastric lymph node | A prominent lymph node in the deep lateral cervical group lying below the digastric muscle and anterior to the internal jugular vein; it receives lymphatic drainage from the pharynx, palatine tonsil, and tongue. Synonym: nodus jugulodigastricus, jugulodigastric node, subdigastric node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| jugulo-omohyoid lymph node | A lymph node of the lateral deep cervical group that lies above the intermediate tendon of the omohyoid muscle and anterior to the internal jugular vein; it receives lymphatic drainage from the submental, submandibular, and deep anterior cervical nodes; its efferent vessels go to other deep lateral cervical nodes. Synonym: nodus jugulo-omohyoideus, jugulo-omohyoid node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fibular lymph node | A small inconstant lymph node located along the course of the peroneal vein. Synonym: nodus fibularis, fibular node, peroneal node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foraminal lymph node | <anatomy> One of the hepatic nodes located adjacent to the epiploic foramen. Synonym: nodus foraminalis, foraminal node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral lacunar lymph node | A lymph node of the external iliac group located lateral to the external iliac artery at the vascular lacuna. Synonym: nodus lacunaris lateralis, lateral lacunar node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lymph node | <anatomy> Small bean-shaped organ made up of a loose meshwork of reticular tissue in which are enmeshed large numbers of lymphocytes, macrophages and accessory cells located along the lymphatic system. Recirculating lymphocytes leave the blood through the specialised high endothelial venules of the lymph node and pass through the node before being returned to the blood through the lymphatic system. Because the lymph nodes act as drainage points for tissue fluids, they are also regions in which foreign antigens present in the tissue fluid are most likely to begin to elicit an immune response. Nodes filter out bacteria or cancer cells that may travel through the lymphatic system. Synonym: lymph glands. (14 Oct 1997) |
| lymph node excision | Surgical excision of one or more lymph nodes. Its most common use is in cancer surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lymph node of azygos arch | A lymph node of the posterior mediastinal group located adjacent to the arch of the azygos vein. Synonym: nodus lymphaticus arcus venae azygos. (05 Mar 2000) |
