Four-decade trends in lymph node status of patients with vulvar squamous cell carcinoma in northern Italy

Abstract The 4-decade (1980–2017) trends in lymph node status of patients with vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (VSCC) in a province of northern Italy were investigated. Information was collected on lymph node dissection, number of lymph nodes dissected, lymph node involvement, and number of positive...
