Abstract

Isolated lymph node recurrence in the right external iliac region in cases of cecum carcinoma is extremely rare, and the significance of surgical resection for isolated lymph node recurrence has not been established due to the low number of such cases. We report the first case of isolated right external iliac lymph node recurrence from a primary cecum carcinoma, successfully treated by surgical resection.
