I had the radical vulvectomy as well and was just informed that my doctor is now going to remove the whole area of lymph nodes in the pelvic area. Is it painful? How long were you in the hospital? Recovery time?

Hi there! I stayed one night! Did not seem long enough! My lymph nodes were removed from leg/groin area so i do not know anything about the pelvic lymph nodes removal. Goodluck! Im sorry you have to have another surgery! Please let us know how you are doing. (i was back to work in 6 weeks but my surgery was different than yours)

I had a left radical hemivulectomy with 7 lymph nodes removed in 2013. Doing fine now. But I have lymphedema have they told you about that?
