Cadeias ganglionares

English translation: Lymph node chain

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Portuguese term or phrase:Cadeias ganglionares
English translation:Lymph node chain
Entered by: Louise Etheridge

Portuguese to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical (general) / Presentation on lung cancer
Portuguese term or phrase: Cadeias ganglionares
This appears in a bullet point as follows (some accents omitted)

Punçao aspirativa (cadeias ganglionares, localizaçoes secundárias da doença)

The research I've done so far appears to suggest that cadeias ganglionares would be 'central nerve trunk', however, I can't really find a confirmation of this. Would anyone be able to confirm?

Many thanks

Teresa's first reference was written by a non-native, and the second refers to ganglion, not lymph node (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganglion)
