My father is 52 years old and has always been in good health and slightly fat.He has no family history of hereditary cancer and has a history of longevity.On September 24, he went to the hospital for a cough and throat itch and was advised to have a CT scan of the lungs, which revealed a shadow and a large mass in the right abdominal cavity.Further abdominal ultrasound and enhanced ultrasound were done. The abdominal ultrasound is shown below.At present, only the pancreas was not scanned, and the first doctor suspected a teratoma, which was a lucky result.However, an old director of a tertiary care hospital suspected liposarcoma.At the moment, my father is just coughing more, no other reflections.I was also assigned to work in Northeast China by the organization after graduation, and I have been working on epidemic prevention and rural revitalization, so I haven't been home for a long time.I have just returned home and am in a hurry.I would like to ask all the experts and doctors to give their valuable opinions from the perspective of transfer.In the end, which is the preference, malignant or benign.We are also prepared to see if it's serious enough to raise money, and to contact the hospital in Beijing.(always in the local tertiary hospital examination and consultation, the current pathology has not been done)
Condition Analysis:
Hi, looking at the picture of abdominal ultrasound provided by you, it shows that the intra-abdominal mass is 243×99 mm, with clear boundary, irregular shape and internal blood flow signal, analyzing that if it is malignant, there should be abdominal pain, wasting and even abdominal distension before it grows to such a large size.If your ultrasound does not show any peritoneal fluid, the analysis is likely to be benign (peritoneal fluid indicates malignant tumor peritoneal metastasis).Therefore, you do not need to worry too much at the moment, the cough should not be related to the mass, we suggest further investigation of abdominal enhancement CT to see the adjacent relationship of the mass, as well as blood test for tumor markers to further clarify the diagnosis.
Condition Analysis:
The old man has a regular life, no medical history, now he has a cough and itchy throat, he went to the hospital for examination and found a solid occupancy in the abdomen, the nature of this is uncertain and further examination is needed.It is recommended that you follow the offline doctor's instructions for further examination and treatment.Do not have too much psychological pressure.
Guidance:
In order to confirm the diagnosis of malignant or malignant-benign, the patient needs to have an examination for pathological analysis.Malignant tumors grow faster and have a harder texture.If the tumor grows slowly and the texture is not very hard, it is usually benign, so don't worry too much.
