Dosimetric impact of edema on inguinal lymph node boost in locally advanced vulvar cancer

We aimed to evaluate the extent of groin edema and its dosimetric effect in boosted inguinal lymph nodes (LN) for vulvar cancer patients. The level of edema was determined in 10 patients treated with radical radiotherapy. A dosimetric evaluation of six LNs in the patient with the maximum level of edema was performed. The accumulated dose across CBCT fractions was acceptable for all six LNs (>94% of prescribed dose) even with the development of...
