a lymph node biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing lymphoma. Often, it's the only test that can provide an official diagnosis. During the procedure, a specialist takes a sample of a lymph node. The sample is examined under a microscope for signs of lymphoma.

1. By laparoscopy if you mean minimally invasive thoracic surgery. It is better.
2. Selecting procedure for surgery is all about customizing it for the type and extent of lung cancer and according to patient compliance.
3. Without knowing disease burden, its hard to select what's best for your patient.

Ca colon was detected during colostomy surgery because of obstruction in intestines was done on 28/09/2020 and water confirmed by biopsy at sri balaji action medical institute, paschim vihar, new delhi 110063. Close/reversal stone surgery was also advised after successful 6 chemotherapy sessions. Second opinion was taken at all india institute of medical sciences, new delhi (dr. B. R ambedkar irch ). After investigations, ca colon was confirmed and chemotherapy was started at aiims. Total 4 chemotherapy sessions were performed. Last chemotherapy session, was done on 21/01/2021 at aiims. Later because of accidental fall and one month period was needed for surgery after chemotherapy, treatment was disrupted. Bipolar hemi artho plastic surgery was performed on 24/02/2021 at aiims. Currently under treatment at day care chemotherapy center and follow up at irch, aiims. Current pet scan indicated" no significant metabolically active disease noted at present. Possible recurrence may happen has been advised on follow up visit. Consultations are being carried out by team of doctors at aiims for further treatment/advise. My query at present is that now since chemotherapy is over, can close/reversal surgery can be performed. Second query is whether surgery is immediately advised now or preferably can wait, if possible, because I am not able to independently sit or stand on my own. Chemotherapy sessions are on. I feel colostomy bags are convenient at this time rather than sitting on commode seat and would like to wait for close/reversal surgery. What is advisable period of gap between initial colostomy surgery and close/reversal surgery? Please advise?

Hi dear lybrate-user, I went through your query and concerns with your colostomy.
You focus on the overall general condition improvement in view of the current chemo sessions.
As your colostomy is functioning ok, no need to hurry on surgical reversal, so as to avoid risking and compromising on your general condition
after that consult your aiims doctors so as to plan the colostostomy reversal at opportune time.
Do call back for any more query.

As your mother is having metastatic lung cancer she would have had primary site if her cancer somewhere else in her body which after treatment or with no treatment now has reached her lungs. The ideal treatment for your mother is to go for radio or chemo therapy but as a family member if you have decided not to go for that there are palliative treatment options available for her which will not treat the cancer but can give her some relief from her severe bone pain.
Thanks and kindly feedback...more

There is no use of adding unnecessary multivits. Take balanced fruit, salad, vegan diet and see the difference. However dont leave medicine atonce. For diet modifications and Ayurvedic med pl consult on lybrate. Pl send your latest prescription or discharge summary.
