A member asked:

What does hilar bilar adenopathy mean medically?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Swollen lymph nodes: I presume that you mean bilateral hilar adenopathy. This means swollen lymph nodes near the center of the chest. I can be associated with both benign and malignant conditions.

Dr Rosen and another doctor agreed
