Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concerns. Breast cancer is generally characterized by a painless lump in the breast. First, we need to perform a bilateral breast mammogram. If it appears suspicious for cancer on the mammogram, then we need to conduct a core needle biopsy of the lump, which will confirm the diagnosis of cancer.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. I had seen all these reports (attachments were removed to protect the patient's identity), and based on this, it is squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. Based on the CT (computed tomography) and bronchoscopy report, it looks like endobronchial and extrabronchial growth. The CT report shows a hilar mass with a cut-off middle lobe bronchus and a tumor along the bronchus intermedius.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your concern. I have seen the picture (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity) of your sputum. Based on the history that you have provided, it looks like an upper respiratory tract infection. Sometimes, a small tinge of blood in the sputum is common with an upper respiratory tract infection.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. A lump with a 15-year history does not indicate cancer. It looks like a lipoma (fat lump). But a long-duration lump with a sudden increase in size or a recent increase in size is worrisome. It may be a sebaceous cyst diagnosed by your dermatologist, but sebaceous cysts generally do not last for many periods.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and can understand your concern. A small umbilical hernia is very common. Based on the image (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity), it looks like a hernia with omental fat as a content. Umbilical hernia with omental fat as the content remains reducible for the initial period but becomes irreducible after a long time.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. As per your description, it looks like a rectovesical fistula (a connection between your rectum and urinary bladder). Rectovesical fistulas are less common in females as the uterus comes in between. As you are also passing blood from the rectum during your menstrual period, it means there is a connection between the rectum, uterus, vagina, and urinary bladder (both rectovaginal and rectovesical fistula).
Hi,Welcome to icliniq.com.I understand your concern.Large intestine cancer is treated with surgery followed by chemotherapy if the tumor is stage 3 or stage 4 on final histopathological examination. If the disease is stage 1, then there is no need for further treatment, but if it is stage 2, then you have to do MSI (microsatellite instability) testing.If MSI is high, then the patient will need chemotherapy, with no role for radiation therapy at all.
Hello,Welcome to icliniq.com.I can understand your concern.I have seen your PET-CT (positron emission tomography-computed tomography) scan report (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity), and based on that, it is cancer of the distal part of the stomach (food storage organ). A biopsy report is needed for confirmation (I hope it is already done before starting chemotherapy).A recent PET scan is suggestive of non-metastatic disease (not spread to other sites).
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I have seen your endoscopy report (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity), and based on that, it is cancer of the distal part of the stomach (food storage organ). A biopsy is needed just for confirmation. Further, you must undergo a PET (positron emission tomography) scan after the biopsy report. If a PET scan is suggestive of non-metastatic disease (not spread to other sites), then a staging laparoscopy to see inside the abdomen by scope with a small hole is advisable.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. Lipoma is the nodular collection of body fat only. It can be removed under local anesthesia, depending on size. If it is very big, then I would suggest it be removed under general anesthesia.
