Radical ilioinguinal lymphadenectomy
Abstract
Radical ilioinguinal lymphadenectomy remains the mainstay of treatment for certain genitourinary carcinomas either with the propensity for or with clinical evidence of metastases to the inguinal-pelvic region. The most frequent indication for this procedure in urologic practice is carcinoma of the penis, followed by carcinoma of the urethra, scrotum, and testis with scrotal invasion. This article reviews the anatomy of the inguinal and iliac region and presents a detailed discussion of the surgical technique.
