What does it mean if a CT scan found an enlarged lymph node in my husband's abdomen. He had testicular cancer

and has been 'cancer free' for 2 years.

The onlcologist is on vacation. He called and left a message on our home machine. I know this isn't a medical site, I just thought maybe someone might have experience with this. I just wanted to try to ease my mind till he gets a PET scan.

You do not give very much information. Do you suspect that the cancer has returned? This is really a question you need to ask his oncologist. With his history it is possible that this is a relapse, but this is something that his doctor needs to be discussing with him.

I assume that this was caught on his three or six month checkup? This situation is exactly why the doctor orders a CT to check and see if the cancer is in remission or has relapsed. Hopefully, if it turns out to be a relapse they can treat it faster.

Good luck. It's possible too that this is an infection or nothing to be alarmed about. Call your doctor before it drives you nuts.
