Lymph Nodes Removal
Lymph node removal is a surgical procedure aimed at removing one or more lymph nodes from your body, typically recommended if you’ve been diagnosed with cancer. There are two main purposes for this procedure.
Firstly, if you have cancer, lymph nodes may be removed to determine if the cancer has spread. This information helps your doctor devise an effective treatment plan tailored to your needs. Secondly, if cancer has been found in your lymph nodes, removing them can help eliminate cancer cells and reduce the risk of cancer recurrence, thus improving your long-term prognosis.
Symptoms
Lymph node surgery is conducted to address lymph node cancer, known as lymphoma.
Symptoms of lymphoma may include:
- Painless swelling of lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, or groin
- Persistent fatigue
- Fever
- Shortness of breath
- Night sweats
When to access Medical Care
Lymph node surgery is typically recommended for individuals with significant lymph node-related issues, particularly when the condition is considered serious or potentially life-threatening. It’s generally not a procedure undertaken lightly, and medical professionals assess each case carefully to determine the necessity and potential risks of surgery.
Determinants of risk
Several factors may increase the risk of developing lymphoma:
Age: Certain types of lymphoma are more prevalent in younger adults, while others are commonly diagnosed in individuals over the age of fifty-five.
Gender: Men are slightly more predisposed to developing lymphoma compared to women.
Impaired immune system: Individuals with immune system disorders or those taking medications that suppress their immune system are at a higher risk of developing lymphoma.
Certain infections: Some infections, such as the Epstein-Barr virus and Helicobacter pylori infection, have been linked to an increased risk of lymphoma.
Recovery process
Recovery duration varies, contingent on factors like patient characteristics, chosen procedure, and the extent of severity.
