Guest guest Posted April 16, 2006 Report Posted April 16, 2006 On one of the lists I monitor some recently asked about groin swelling. I do not remember which list so I am posting this answer I found here. .. Q: Can swelling in the groin area be a result of a radical prostatectomy?A: This swelling could be related to lymph node dissection, which sometimes causes swelling in the groin, penis, scrotum, and pubic area. In such circumstances, I recommend a visit to the surgeon and perhaps a CT scan of the abdomen and pelvic region. http://www.drcatalona.com/qa/faq_rp-conditions.asp Kathy Meade Arlington Educational Consulting http://www.vapcacoalition.org/ http://www.naspcc.org/ phone fax And the trouble is if you don't risk anything, you risk even more. a Jong Quote
