A member asked:
What causes enlarged lymph nodes near or on aorta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Enlarged Lymph Nodes: I assume these were seen on a ct scan. They could be from many different causes. Lymph nodes enlarge from inflammation, infection, cancer. I would talk to your doctor about the findings. They know your history and can give you an idea about why they are enlarged.
