A member asked:

Terminal ileum biopsy- ileum type mucosa with prominent lymphoid aggregate. what does this mean.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal biopsy: The ileum normally has numerous lymphoid aggregates. To a pathologist, this actually helps us figure out which part of the small intestine the biopsy is from. Unless something else was stated in your report, this should be taken as "normal."
