Omental nodules are small, firm, discrete masses or collections of fat located in the omentum, a fold of peritoneum that covers and supports the abdominal organs. These nodules can sometimes be found incidentally during imaging studies or surgery for other conditions and may be benign or associated with underlying diseases such as cancer.

Esophageal nodules are not common. They may be caused by various conditions such as inflammation, infection, or injury to the esophagus. If you are experiencing symptoms related to esophageal nodules, it is important to seek medical advice for proper evaluation and treatment.
Treatment for soft tissue nodules generally involves observation, especially if the nodules are small and not causing any symptoms. In cases where nodules are painful or growing, treatment options may include corticosteroid injections, physical therapy, or surgical removal. It is important to consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
An example of authigenic sediment is manganese nodules, which form on the seafloor as a result of chemical precipitation of manganese and iron oxides. These nodules slowly grow over time by accumulating layers of material from seawater.
Omental tissue refers to the fold of peritoneum that extends from the stomach and covers the intestines, providing support and containing blood vessels and lymphatics. A minor microscopic focus of serous carcinoma in omental tissue indicates the presence of small, localized clusters of cancer cells that originate from serous carcinoma, a type of epithelial ovarian cancer. This finding may suggest metastatic spread or secondary involvement of the omentum and can have implications for staging and treatment decisions in cancer management.
Since the last study, there is an increase in spread-out nodules in the connective tissue of the abdomen.

Mesenteric and omental soft tissue nodules could have a number of causes, usually metastatic cancer. In a patient with a known soft tissue sarcoma elsewhere in the body, this finding would likely represent metastases from this sarcoma. If the patient did not have a history of soft tissue sarcoma, this finding could be several things, and soft tissue sarcome would not be at the top of my list.

Yes, primary nodules don't have germinal centers(active B cells) while secondary nodules do.
Omental torsion is very rare and is almost never diagnosed preoperatively. The condition is usually found once exploratory surgery has begun and other potential abdominal abnormalities have been ruled out. Omental torsion is rarely fatal and recovery is usually swift, depending upon how evasive the incisions are. Most cases of omental torsion occur in adults and affects both men and women equally.
No. Spleen nodules cannot grow in human or any other lungs. Spleen nodules grow on the spleen. There are nodules that do grow in the lungs, however.
The nodules likely refer to thyroid nodules. The process within these nodules involves the formation of abnormal growths or lumps on the thyroid gland. These nodules can be benign or malignant and may affect thyroid function. Further evaluation, such as biopsy or imaging, may be needed to determine the nature of the nodules.
An omental patch is a surgical treatment of gastro-duodenal ulcer perforation whereby your omentum (a fat layer in your abdomen) is pulled through the perforation and fixed to the bowel to seal the "hole" created by the perforated ulcer
Nodules usually only require voice therapy; less than 5% of nodules require surgery
yes,there are root nodules
