Cancer Care and Treatment

My grandmother is 72 years old and has painless external swelling/lumps near the groin/private-part area. She is otherwise normal, but she gets anxious and her BP increases during hospital visits. We consulted a gynecologist and general physician. Ultrasound report mentions bilateral inguinal nodal mass lesions and suprapubic lymph nodes, largest around 33 × 30 mm, with loss of fatty hilum and increased vascularity on Doppler. Impression says morphology is indeterminate/sonographically suspicious: lymphomatous / metastatic / granulomatous lymphadenitis. Report advised FNAC/core/excision biopsy and MRI pelvis with contrast. Please advise which specialist we should consult first: gynecologic oncologist, surgical oncologist, medical oncologist, or general surgeon? Also, should we proceed with FNAC/core biopsy first, or MRI pelvis with contrast first?

Can OSMF still progress even after quitting the habit, and will there still be any kind of cancer risk?

Wbc count anything from.12000 to 18000 always once reach 22000 also ldh report is normal as attached so why wbc is high Chronic prostatis leads to high WBC?

Plz anyone guide me about that. What to do... Whether to go for chemo or else. And what is the outcome after chemo

Hello Doctor, Seeking your opinion regarding a 71-year-old patient diagnosed with NSCLC favor squamous cell carcinoma (P40 diffuse positive, TTF1 negative) involving the right upper lobe. PET-CT shows a spiculated RUL lesion approx. 3.0 × 4.7 × 4.0 cm with SUV max 16.58. Mildly FDG-avid hilar/paratracheal nodes (SUV ~4.2) with some calcification noted. EBUS/TBNA from stations 4R, 7 and 11L showed no evidence of malignancy. Current staging documented as cT2bN1M0 (Stage IIB). Proposed plan is neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by reassessment for surgery. Would appreciate guidance on: 1. Whether chemo + surgery appears the optimal curative-intent approach in this case. 2. Whether adding immunotherapy to neoadjuvant chemotherapy would significantly improve outcomes. 3. Whether current imaging/EBUS findings sufficiently support N1 staging or need further nodal evaluation. Thank you.

Hello Doctor, my mother has ovarian cancer and has completed 4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with very good response (CA-125 reduced from 273 to 11). Her treating team is now planning interval cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC. We would like to take an expert opinion specifically regarding whether HIPEC is truly necessary/beneficial in her case, considering the additional recovery burden and cost. Could you please help us in deciding if HIPEC would be necessary and effective ? Thank you.

I have two lumps in my mouth I have history of chewing tobacco from 5 yrs. It is not going from two months. I met a maxilofacial surgeon he told me it is benign no need to take any tension. And also told no need of biopsy. But it is not going what should I do?

Hi, as part of my pre-IVF evaluation I underwent a hysteroscopy procedure in 2024. The biopsy results came back negative for CD138 but showed signs of endometrial hyperplasia. After this I was induced for egg retrieval twice back to back and then I took a break for a year. All this while I was never given any treatment for hyperplasia. Now this year that is 2026, I started my IVF journey again and my uterus had polyps. Since I am not a doctor, I do not understand why I was not given any treatment for hyperplasia. I only understood this when I did some study on my old report findings. I am now scared that what if it turned into cancer. My whole life would go for a toss for an ignorant doctor. What are you experience in such cases. What is the most worst that can happen to me. I will be doing a biopsy again but I want to know the reality what to expect.
