How can cancer spread without lymph node involvment? | Health ...

I’m curious what you mean by "they did blood work came back as non-vascular." The truth is that all tumors have some vasculature or they wouldn’t be able to survive. Tumors feed on the same oxygen and nutrients that the rest of your body feeds on, and more.

As a result, the cancerous cells can enter the blood stream and travel through the body, coming to rest in other locations. The liver is a prime target for these rogue cells because it works like a filter for the blood.

The lymphatic system definitely plays a part, but positive nodes do not always precede distant metastases.

i had lesions on my stomach so i know what you’re going through. cancer is a disease that eats away at the human body if it is not treatable. i had biopsys done ,ct- scans and mri s one day for a test the doctor found the lesions had gone away and were probably caused by an infection i had from taking other meds. but anyway now they found cysts on my kidney which means a whole other series of tests which i hope will find out what i got or do not got. the possibilities this is nothing are very real good luck
