What Is The Best Way To Get A Biopsy Of Cystic Lymphadenopathy Of Neck?
I have been diagnosed with a cystic lumphadenopathy in my neck. They are recommending it be removed as a needle biopsy will not show if cancer in the wall of the cyst only in the fluid. They are saying it is rare to have a fluid cyst in neck? What do you think?
