TUMOR BIOPSY? From: Cathy (anonymous@obgyn.net) Wed, 9 Jul 2003 08:00:09 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: A.: "endometrosis" Previous message: Anonymous: "Re: Dr Hector, please" Next in thread: Jessica Bardales MD: "Re: TUMOR BIOPSY?" Reply: Jessica Bardales MD: "Re: TUMOR BIOPSY?" I have a large fibroid (11cm x 11cm) that is on a stalk. It is thought to possibly be sarcoma. The tumor can be esily felt and seen rasing the abdomen. It seems very acessable. My 3 questions is are?....#1 Can they do a biopsy of the either fibroid or sarcoma(which ever it turns out to be) without doing a hysterectomy? The mri and US indicate it to be a fibroid but the rapid growth makes it suspicious of sarcoma. #2 Also, couldnt they tell on the US or Mri whether it was necrosed in the center. #3 Would that indicate it to be a fibroid if it was necrosed or do sarcomas necrose also? It is a hard feeling tumor. Thanks for any help. Next message: A.: "endometrosis" Previous message: Anonymous: "Re: Dr Hector, please" Next in thread: Jessica Bardales MD: "Re: TUMOR BIOPSY?"
