  • How long does it take for a biopsy report to come?

    One or two working days, unless special stains were needed for diagnosis. Then add an extra day or two. If consultation is needed the pathologist should send out a preliminary report. READ MORE

  • Second opinion on biopsy?

    Melanocytes lesions (moles) can be very difficult to diagnose properly, that is why there are sub specialists called “dermatopathologists”. It does take about a week to get a second opinion, mostly due to shipping times. It is not necessarily a bad sign, if anything it means that the pathologist is being thourough. The good thing is that the initial pathologist did not call it “melanoma” which would be a malignant diagnosis. READ MORE

  • My mother's biopsy confirmed a malignant tumor. Should we consider a second opinion before the treatment?

    If it is a small cell carcinoma, I would recommend beginning treatment ASAP...a second opinion would probably not be beneficial. If it is non-small cell (squamous or adenocarcinoma) consider second opinion but discuss this option with your oncologist. READ MORE
