Supraclavicular nodes*

*The supraclavicular group of nodes,

especially on the left, are also sometimes

referred to as the signal or sentinel lymph

nodes of Virchow or Troisier, especially when

sufficiently enlarged and palpable. These

nodes (or a single node) are so termed because

they may be the first recognized presumptive

evidence of malignant disease in the viscera.
