I'm really anxious about a diagnosis my relative got. It's something called neoplastic etiology with ipsilateral pulmonary pleural metastases and possible mediastinal lymph nodal metastases. Can you explain what all this means and how serious it might be? I'm quite worried and would appreciate any insight.

View allMy lymph nodes are swollen and seem to be spreading everywhere is there any alternative treatment besides surgery that could help? I'm really worried about this and looking for options
Swollen lymph nodes that seem to be "spreading everywhere" could indicate an infection, a response to a foreign substance, or even cancer, but it's crucial to get a diagnosis from a doctor. While some cases of swollen lymph nodes may resolve on their own, and some can be treated with medications, surgery is not always the first or only treatment option. If you're concerned about your swollen lymph nodes, it's important to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment

I'm really worried about my mom. She's had these enlarged supraclavicular lymph nodes for two years now. There are no signs of TB like fever, weight loss, or fatigue, and she's been managing her diabetes pretty well. There was nothing in the lymph nodes when tested for CBNAAT. The ultrasound showed they're quite large, and the biopsy results indicated granulomatous lymphadenitis. The document says TB needs to be ruled out, and the AFB stain came back negative. They also mentioned something about doing a TBPCR test to make sure it's not tuberculosis. The microscopic findings talked about some kind of granulomas but no caseous necrosis was found. TB PCR didn't show any sign of MTB or non-TB mycobacteria. I'm quite confused and worried about what all this means. Is this something serious? What should we do next?
That could be non specific TB infection,might need complete course of ATT, visit physician for appropriate management

I'm a bit concerned about the size of the lymph node in my axilla. My breast ultrasound report mentioned that there's "no lymphadenopathy seen," but I'm wondering if the 259 mm measurement is considered normal. Could you help me understand what this means?
normal
