Portuguese term

Cadeias ganglionares

Portuguese to English Medical Medical (general) Presentation on lung cancer
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

Louise

Their cell bodies are found in the gray matter of the brain stem and spinal cord. Their axons synapse with neurons within the two ganglionic chains.

lymph node clusters

Distribuem-se em cadeias ganglionares (ex: cervicais, axilares, inguinais etc).
http://www.auladeanatomia.com/linfatico/linfa.htm

The major clusters of lymph nodes can be found in the groin, neck and arm pit areas. These lymph node clusters filter the lymph fluid from the specific organs or areas near them.

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)

neutral liz askew : definitely "lymph nodes"
