A member asked:
Whats the meaning of enlarged ipsilateral & hypopharynx?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vocabulary: Enlarged is bigger than usual or expected. Ipsilateral means "on same side as, " so needs some other finding or information with it. Hypopharynx is roughly the area at the back of the throat from below the uvula to the tongue base. Good luck!
