Inguinal Lymphadenopathy

AbstractVarious tumours have been reported to metastasise to inguinal lymph nodes. To our knowledge, caecal cancer has never been reported to metastasise to inguinal nodes. We present a case of a woman who had caecal cancer with large contralateral inguinal lymphadenopathy. She underwent right hemicolectomy with excision of the inguinal lymph node. Histology confirmed adenocarcinoma of caecum metastasising to contralateral inguinal lymph nodes.

Node Status

Aims and Background Anal cancer is a rare condition. The inguinal lymph nodes are the most common site of metastasis in this neoplasm. The inguinal lymph node status is an important prognostic indicator and the presence of metastases is an independent prognostic factor for local failure and overall mortality. Depending on the primary tumor size and histological differentiation, metastasis to superficial inguinal lymph nodes occurs in 15-25% of cases. Methods and Study Design To evaluate the inguinal lymph node status we performed a search for the sentinel node in a female patient affected by squamous anal carcinoma. Results Identification and examination of the sentinel node was positive and postoperative histology showed the presence of bilateral lymph node metastases. Conclusions We suggest that examination of the sentinel node in anal cancer could be an efficient way to establish the inguinal lymph node status, which would help the clinician to plan and perform adequate treatment.

Lymph Node Irradiation

Abstract Background The rate of inguinal lymph node metastasis is relatively low in cervical cancer patients.According to the NCCN (National Comprehensive Cancer Network) guidelines for cervical cancer,patients with cervical cancer invading the lower 1/3 of the vagina require bilateral inguinal lymphatic area preventive irradiation. But do they need preventive inguinal area irradiation? Methods A total of 184 patients with cervical cancer accompanied by the lower 1/3 of the vagina invasion were selected as the study subjects.In this study, a trial and control method was used to select 180 patients without inguinal lymph node metastasis.The patients were divided into preventive radiotherapy group (109 cases) and non-preventive radiotherapy group (71 cases). During and after treatment, the occurrence of inguinal skin damage, lower extremity edema and femoral head necrosis was observed. Results Thirteen cases (7.07%) of 184 patients were found with inguinal lymph node enlargement by imaging examination, and only 4 cases (2.17%) were further confirmed by pathology.In prophylaxis irradiation group, there were 26(23.85%) cases of side injury.In the follow-up of two groups after treatment there was no recurrence in the inguinal lymph nodes. Conclusion The inguinal lymph node metastasis rate in patients with cervical cancer invading the lower third of the vagina is 2.17%.In order to avoid such a low incidence, we carry out preventive irradiation, which will cause 23.85% of local secondary injuries .And even if we do not perform preventive inguinal lymph node irradiation, there is no difference in the recurrence rate of inguinal lymph nodes between the two groups. Preventive inguinal lymph node irradiation isn’t necessary for these patients.

Lymph Nodes Dissection

Background: Inguinal lymph nodes dissection has been the mainstay treatment for penile squamous cell carcinoma with resectable inguinal lymph nodes metastasis. Traditionally, inguinal lymph node dissections were performed with a classical open approach with high complications and morbidity rate. We are reporting our first experience with videoendoscopic inguinal lymph nodes dissection as an alternative to the classic open approach in our center.Case Presentation: This article reports a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the penis. A case report of post partial penectomy with pT3N2M0 squamous cell carcinoma of the penis and palpable bilateral inguinal lymph nodes in a 52-year-old male. In this patient, we perform our first experience with videoendoscopic inguinal lymph nodes dissection as an alternative to the traditional classic open approach inguinal lymph node dissections.Conclusions: Videoendoscopic approach for inguinal lymph nodes dissection in penile cancer is feasible and has been demonstrated to have a better outcome on complications & morbidity compared to the traditional open approach. In the end, we propose that the videoendoscopic approach, if available, could be the main choice for inguinal lymph nodes dissections for the future.
