Προβληματική διατύπωση. Εννοεί εξάλειψη του λίπους της πύλης των λεμφαδένων; (https://goo.gl/BfGGP4: Most reports have been in agreement about the echographic appearance of benign lymph nodes and have described them as oval and hypoechoic, with a smooth border and a hyperechoic hilum, which represents hilar fat and small vessels. Malignant nodes are described as being more round and of a heterogeneous structure (commonly hypoechoic +with a loss of the hilum, sometimes with cystic degeneration or calcifications)
Example sentence:

Cervical lymph node showing loss of central fatty hilum and round shape – suggestive of neoplastic involvement

Suspicious lymph nodes were defined by the absence of hilum (loss of hilum fat), cortical thickening > 3 mm, a hypoechoic internal echo
