Post Surgery Colon Cancer Histopathology Report

(Dubai)
My mother 62+ got operated for colon cancer on 5th Feb'2011 followed with biopsy done for right hemicolectomy and colonic cut margin.
Although the report states that the lymph nodes and bowel cut margin are free of tumour metastases. There is another statement that "Two out of 17 lymph nodes received, show non caseating granulomas". Can you tell me what this statement means, is this any thing to worry about, if so, what should i do next.
