What Does This Biopsy Test Result Indicate?

Just had surgery Monday to removed growth in my neck ( still sore) Anyhow prior to surgery, I had a Fine Needle Biopsy done and today I decided what the heck, I went on the doctors Patient portal to see results. Does anyone know what this might mean: LCA is positive in lymphocytes. CD20 and CD5 are also positive with predominance of CD20. CKAE1/AE3 and CK5/6 are negative. Just wondering what this means. I have a follow up next week
