My wife is 29 and found some lumps, so her doctor recommended an ultrasound which showed multiple cysts with the largest being 17mm. The FNAC came back as benign fibroadenoma. We're unsure whether to go for surgery to remove it or just keep monitoring it what would you suggest is the best approach?

The results indicate multiple breast cysts and a fibroadenoma, both benign conditions. Fibroadenomas are common, non-cancerous breast lumps, and the FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology) confirming a benign fibroadenoma suggests this lump is not cancerous. The cysts, especially a 17mm cyst, are also benign and don't typically require treatment.

My mom had breast conservation surgery and just got her biopsy report but still waiting for ER PR results. The staging says T1N1aMx and mentions metastasis couldn't be determined - does this mean they don't have enough data or are unsure? Also, I read stage IIA cancers are nonmetastatic, so why does it say Mx then? What does this report mean and what should we do next?

sx opinion is advised.

I'm really worried about my 67-year-old mom, who used to smoke back in her teens but quit ages ago. She had a tough bout with Covid pneumonia in December 2020 and thankfully recovered. Still, a CT scan afterward showed some scattered ground glass opacities in her upper right lung, but they didn't give her any treatment then. She had this dry cough hanging around for over a year, but nothing serious came of it until we did another CT scan after a year and a couple of months. This scan showed a soft tissue mass around 3 cm in her upper right lung with surrounding interlobular septal thickening, ground glass opacities, and bronchiectatic changes. A PET scan said it's metabolically active, and a biopsy showed it's small cell carcinoma. They've started treatment now. I'm just trying to understand, could the post-Covid fibrosis and ground glass opacities have caused this small cell carcinoma? It's really concerning since the lung mass was found surrounded by those ground glass opacities. Any insights would really help me.

no covid doesn't cause small cell carcinoma
