Another great case....
A patient with a history of breast cancer presented with what appeared to be an abscess in the right inguinal area.
Soft-tissue POCUS showed fluid, but also lots of solid material inside. This raised the possibility that the abscess was in fact a necrotic cancerous lymph node.
Instead of performing an I&D, she ultimately referred the patient to surgery, and involved the patient's oncologist.
