What happens if a cone biopsy finds more abnormal cells?
If a cone biopsy finds more abnormal cells, further treatment may be required to remove the abnormal cells completely. This could involve additional surgeries or alternative treatments such as radiation therapy or chemotherapy, depending on the extent of the abnormalities and the individual's health situation. It is important to follow up closely with your healthcare provider to discuss the best course of action.
What is found in a biopsy?
Tissue biopsies are used by trained doctors - pathologists to primarily identify cancers but can also identify other diseases. Cancer is the growth of cells in an abnormal pattern. Various types of cells can be identified by their shape, staining patterns and growth patterns. When some one has cancer, the size and pattern of growth is changed. A biopsy is a small piece of tissue that is obtained using a hollow needle. It is processed by the lab and cut very thin (thinner than one's hair, thinner than a single cell) and stained so that it can be observed under a microscope by a surgical pathologist who then identifies any abnormality that exists.
What is a warning sign of potential oral cancer?

Do you have Cancer you have a lump on your neck that keeps growing?
Yes. Cancer is normally a growth of cells that can be either benign or malignant. As these cells generally have abnormal groths and can be found in the skin, cancer can in fact be found anywhere on the body.
Does a surgical laparoscopy include biopsy?
Not necessarily. If anything is found during the laparoscopy which appears 'abnormal' and is worth biopsying, it will be done. But biopsies are not usually performed on tissues which appear normal.
Why do surgeons do biopsy for cells?
The biopsy or collection of cells lets doctors know what is causing a particular problem. Once the cause is found a correct treatment plan can be started. Cells are gathered and then tested in a number of ways including looking at them under a microscope. The biopsy can identify the presence of cancer which obviously has a very specific treatment plan. It should be noted that cancer is only one thing that needs to be ruled out. There are hundreds of different diseases that can only be identified by looking at the individual cells found from a biopsy. For instance, there are many diseases that cause abdominal pain, bleeding, and visible changes in the intestinal tract; but only through collection of cells and testing them can the actual cause be identified.
What is a sentence for biopsy?
They stopped the biopsy immediately once they found evidence.
What does negative bone marrow biospy mean?
A negative bone marrow biopsy indicates that no abnormal cells or signs of disease, such as cancer or infection, were found in the bone marrow sample. This result can suggest that the bone marrow is functioning normally and is not involved in conditions like leukemia, lymphoma, or aplastic anemia. However, it’s important to consider the clinical context and other diagnostic tests, as some conditions may still exist even if the biopsy appears normal. Always consult a healthcare professional for a comprehensive interpretation of biopsy results.
When does your doctor check your breasts for breast cancer?
There are several ways to detect possible breast cancer but, to make a final determination, a biopsy must be done. The three types of biopsy that lead to a diagnosis of breast cancer are fine needle aspiration, core needle biopsy and an excisional biopsy. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) uses a small needle to remove a bit of fluid and a very small amount of tissue from the site. Because of the limited amount of tissue, FNA isn't always reliable (a tendency towards false negatives. That is, the cancer might be there, but isn't found). In a core needle biopsy, a slightly larger bit (about 1/16" in diameter and 1/2 inch in length) of tissue from the area in question is removed with a large bore needle, sometimes with the help of vacuum. An excisional biopsy is usually used when a core needle biopsy isn't possible. In an excisional biopsy, the entire lesion is surgically removed. In any case, for all of these, the tissue collected is stained and examined under a microscope to look for cancerous cells. Depending on the type of cancer and the stain being used, the cancerous cells will generally stain differently than the non-cancerous cells.
What do Squamous epithelial cells mean on an abnormal pap smear result?
Squamous epithelial cells are the type of cells found on the cervix. That phrase on its own does not indicate any abnormality.
