Bronchoscopy with biopsy or another CT in 3 months

christiansmom · September 2022

I am asking on behalf of my husband. We received the results of his PET scan and CT w/contrast.

Results were enlarged inferior hilar lymph nodes, mild metabolic activity SUV 3.2. Bilateral lung nodules, not metabolically active.

No other abnormalities noted. He has been given the option of a repeated CT in 3 months (suggested by PET) or bronchoscopy with biopsy (CT report).

Thoughts based on the SUV? The hilar node measures 3.2cm.

Thank you for your thoughts and input.

I’ve been through a similar situation recently. If you search under kidney cancer, enlarged hilar lymph nodes 2 1/2 years after RCC you can read my story. After CT scan, PET scan and biopsy, it came back no evidence of malignancy. Praying all is well with you!
