Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I am due to see an orthopaedic oncologist this week based on an MRI that revealed (radiologist opinion) a small possible tumor. It s approx 1.5 inches in diameter...it s in my calf muscle and only revealed itself to me roughly 3 weeks ago. MY question is, given that I ve had doctors freak out before over a few hemangiomas in my liver...with the thought of cancer. Could I possible have developed one in the same manner in my calf muscle? I ve had 6 other cyst/lipomas removed as well on other areas on my body too. My grandma was unusual in this way too.
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here, this is very much obvious that you have a history of some conditions and that may be related with the present finding of tumor and to rule out the certain possibility biopsy need to be done as you are going to see the oncologist you would be advise for the same, hope this information helps you take care and have a nice day.
