Inguinofemoral Lymph Nodes: Key Players in Cancer Staging
Inguinofemoral lymph nodes are located in the groin region and are crucial for draining lymphatic fluid from the lower extremities and external genitalia. These nodes play a significant role in cancer staging, particularly for malignancies such as melanoma, vulvar, and penile cancers. Assessing the involvement of these nodes helps guide treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes.
