Ultrasound morphometric and cytologic preoperative assessment of inguinal lymph‐node status in women with vulvar cancer: MorphoNode study

Abstract

Preoperative ultrasound assessment, with or without the addition of cytology, has a high accuracy in assessing inguinal LN status in patients with vulvar cancer. In particular, the combination of two ultrasound parameters (S length and C/M thickness ratio) provided the greatest accuracy in discriminating between negative and positive LNs.
