Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 87 year old mother just had surgery to remove a large melanoma tumor in her vulva. The surgeon also took a lymph node from her pelvic area to analyze for spread. He said that the lymph node felt "crunchy". I didn't ask what that might mean. Any insight?
