Gene Expression Comparison Between the Primary Tumor and its Lymph Node Metastasis in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Pilot Study

Conclusion: Differential gene expression levels in node metastases compared to the primary tumor is linked to the prognosis of HNSCC patients. The histological/immunohisto-chemical characteristics of the tumor are associated with these genes expression changes.
