Avatar m tn I am a 33 yr female and currently expecting. During my annual breast sonogram (follow up from past history cysts) a 1.2cm mass was discovered. I then had to have a needle biopsy.My doctor hasn't been available, adn I was getting anxious so I picked up the pathology report today, but am getting very confused by different results online and am beginning to get frightened.

Avatar f tn Pathology report shows infiltrating mammary carcinoma, no special type, low combined histologic grade, Low proliferative rate with apocrine cytology, measuring at least 6MM in greatest extent (best measrued on P63 IHC Slide) Calponin and P63 show absence of myoepithelial cells int he neoplastic tubules, consistent with an invasive interpretation. Immunohistochemical studies for estrogen receptor and progesteron receptor are negative. My questions: No special type? What does that mean?
502219 tn?1311357910 you ask the pathology department of the hospital where you had the liver biopsy performed to mail the actual slides to the physician you want (typically accompanied by their report). they will read it at the receiving hospital and generate a report. they usually file a bill with your insurance. let me know if i can direct you further. this is a typical practice.
Avatar n tn My first biopsy report before surgery said dcis all the surgeon told me on my check-up two weeks later was it is invasive and my pathology report is not back. It know has been 18 days and nothing. Does it take that long to find out if lymph node involvement. Very worried with the wait.
Avatar f tn t seem conflicting to me but perhaps they are not complete in this writing. Both were negative for Lymphatic invasion although different terminology was used throughout the two reports. Regards ....

Avatar m tn s thyroiditis have tongue issues that has/had an impact on your speech? I have the scalloped appearance to my tongue, a swollen feeling near the back and underneath the tongue which affects my speech. Did the thyroid meds fix the problem and if so, how long did it take?
Avatar n tn You and your mother should ask for an explanation of the Pathology report from her Physician. Pt.s are not expected to understand all the medical terminology used in these reports. You should both sit down with her Physician and discuss the report fully. It seems there is some measure of infection in the area that isn't responding to the medications.
Avatar n tn t have any of the radiology reports or pathology reports but I plan on going up to the hospital and getting them. Any thoughts? Either way I go I will go back in 6 months for another mammogram to follow up on the right breast and then again in March for my usual yearly mammogram.
203342 tn?1328737207 Can someone help me understand this pathology report from biopsy of moles? Thanks! First mole: 1.) Given the mild to moderate cytologic atypia, the lnetiginous features, the involvement of the lateral surgical margin, conservative re--excision with histopathologic confirmation of complete removal would be prudent and is recommended. Second mole; 2.
Avatar f tn re not familiar with the liver, histology, pathology and all the medical terminology that goes with it, any explanation I might give probably won't mean much to you and could confuse you more. It's great to learn what it means (eventually) but the short of the long.... His biopsy shows his liver is inflamed at "Grade 1", which is minimally inflamed (good news) and that there is Grade 2 fibrosis (hardening of the liver tissue) and that's pretty good news, too.
Avatar f tn Given that every comment I find from doctors on the web (including STD experts whose opinion I paid for before the biopsy) stated that warts do not/cannot have hair growing from them. When I look up what the pathology of a wart is, I see things like “epidermal hyperplasia, parakeratosis, koilocytosis, and papillomatosis” (https://online.epocrates.com/diseases/22834/Genital-warts/Diagnostic-Tests) and I don’t see most of those mentioned on my biopsy report.
Avatar f tn So, around this time last year I experienced tingling in my left hand that lasted for a few days, coupled with extreme fatigue. Days later, I developed nystagmus only upon waking that lasted for about 10 minutes or so. That eventually went away after about a month. About six months later I had a severe headache that migrated to my right eye and lasted for over a week. Went to an optometrist, no optic neuritis.
Avatar f tn You can still request that your slides be read by another Pathology Lab. If you aren't seeing a Breast Specialist I suggest that you do so and this might help clear things up for you. I'm sure you are more than aggravated at how things have gone in the past. I'm not sure why the ADH wouldn't show up on Excisional Biopsy unless the area was so small that it was removed by the previous needle procedure/ OR/ the Excisional Biopsy did not include the area of ADH.
Avatar f tn t seen that as a test for dysphagia in any MS forum. It seems more relevant to get a barium swallow or speech pathology assessment. I've had so many tests lately, and spent so much time at the clinic, that I'd like to avoid this if it's not necessary. Any thoughts?
Avatar n tn Please consult doctor or get the X ray cervical spine done to rule out cervical pathology. Avoid thick pillows too and also get your blood pressure checked.
Avatar f tn Dear Joacs456 (using your nickname) Really very sorry to hear that. From your question it appears as though there is a pathology in brain--like aneurysm, hematoma etc due to injury. I am sure MRI must have been done after and before surgery. What do the reports say? Have you consulted a senior neurologist? A more detailed information about medical reports and Neurologist's opinion will be very helpful.
