Hiii I m Kartar Chandila from faridabad doctors find well defined lobulated hypoattenuating lesions the largest of which measures 42*30 mm in left hila, oarta pulmonary window, subcarinal region s/o adenopathy. these lesions shows mild enhancement with no obvious necrotic area. few parenchymal densities seen in left lower lobe? due to partial brochial abstruction. rest of lung fields are clear. kindly guide us what does it mean and in which hospital I should go?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. I have gone through the CT thorax report you have mentioned. It says that you are having left Hilary lymph node. Hilum is the structure where mediastinal lymph nodes are seen. You are having isolated mediastinal lymph node enlargement (42*30\u00a0mm). Most commonly it is seen in tuberculosis. Other causes are acidosis, histoplasmosis and lymphoma (cancer). So we need to biopsy that lymph node to identify the cause. For biopsy, you need to consult interventional pulmonologist who perform such procedures. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
