INGUINAL-PELVIC LYMPH DISSECTION IN THE TREATMENT OF METASTATIC LESION OF REGIONAL LYMPH NODES IN VULVAR CANCER

Knowledge about the prevalence of the cancer process and its microscopic signs helps to establish the stage of development of the disease, helps to assess the likelihood of tumor recurrence and provides information that will allow the doctor to predict the therapeutic effect. With vulvar cancer, the tumor often spreads along the length and by metastasis to the regional lymph nodes (inguinal, femoral), and then to the pelvic lymph nodes. In malignant tumors, the level of lymph node lesion, which can be determined by lymph node dissection, is of great importance for the choice of treatment method.
