Symptoms of lower limb swelling and pain in cervical cancer

summary

Cervical cancer is usually treated with this operation. However, this operation is likely to have a series of complications. The more common one is the swelling of the leg. The swelling of the leg after the operation of cervical cancer is generally caused by Lymphocyst, Because when we do surgery, it is very likely that we will hurt the lymph nodes, so that there is no place for the lymph in the body to go, and finally there is accumulation, which leads to the edema. Let's talk about the swelling and pain of the lower limbs of cervical cancer.

Symptoms of lower limb swelling and pain in cervical cancer

First, thrombus often occurs after operation. The blood is in a hypercoagulable state, forming embolism, blocking the vein (because of the high pressure of the artery, there is generally no embolism), causing leg swelling. Sometimes accompanied by lower limb pain. But it is characterized by its close relationship with surgery and rapid progress. After B-ultrasound examination, the diagnosis can be made generally. Timely targeted treatment will quickly improve.

Second, local recurrence. Local recurrence after the formation of mass, compression around the vein, resulting in poor circulation, leg swelling. It is characterized by slow occurrence of leg swelling, often accompanied by hip pain, and sometimes palpable inguinal or pelvic mass during physical examination. If the leg swelling caused by this reason is found, targeted anti-tumor treatment is needed to improve.

Third, in the late stage, because of the necrosis and abscission of cancer tissue, the whole cervix is sometimes replaced by cavity, and covered with gray brown necrotic tissue, stinking. The tumor infiltrated into the vaginal wall, and there were vegetations in the vaginal wall, invading the adjacent tissues on both sides. Gynecological examination showed that the tumor was thickened on both sides, nodular, and the texture was similar to the cancer tissue. Sometimes it infiltrated into the pelvic wall, forming a frozen pelvis.
