18 months back my mother gone through Carcinoma vulva, Post O/P surgery ....Now her Fine needle aspiration of cytology report impression was U/S Guided FNAC- Left Inguinal node: METASTATIC DEPOSITS OF SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA IN LYMPHNODE. Is this a cancer? Is there any treatment to cure it? there is any life risk because of this diseace?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Yes, that report is showing cancer spread in lymph nodes. Metastases to lymph nodes is very common in vulval malignancy. So this is recurrence of malignancy. Your mother is now in stage 4 category and needs palliative treatment in the form of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. So better to consult oncologist and discuss all these. She may need PET scan to search for other metastatic lesions too. She will need palliative chemotherapy mostly.
