Physical examination found small nodules in both lungs. I did CT last year, but it was not in the report. Will it be malignant
Condition Analysis:
Middle aged female patients, at present, your diagnosis of pulmonary nodules is clear, but the tumor markers are negative. In this case, it is recommended that you go to the third class hospital for reexamination in case of subsequent chest CT, because they can report the size of nodules. You have not described the size of nodules now. Generally speaking, nodules below 8mm are reexamined regularly.
Condition Analysis:
According to the situation you described, there were no pulmonary nodules in the CT report last year, but there were small pulmonary nodules this year. This situation is generally not a big problem. In this case, it is generally considered that there is a high possibility of benign nodules. For this kind of pulmonary nodules, I suggest that regular reexamination is also needed, generally once a year.
Condition Analysis:
Hello, pulmonary nodules are caused by many reasons. More than 90% of nodules are benign. If there are no clinical symptoms, they will not cause malignancy. It is recommended to observe regularly and go to the hospital for CT every 3 ~ 6 months. If the nodules grow too fast, they are malignant tumors.
