A member asked:

What is this enlarged lymph node mean? (on the right just above the level of my adam apple) it's 2cm long non-tender slightly mobile. blood tests fine

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible tumor: A lesion as described fits the picture of a jugular lymph node adjacent to the larynx. If no lesion of the thyroid on palpation, one must consider a lesion of the hypopharynx. Many of these tumors are no larger than 2-3 mm and can metastasize to nodes. Should be seen by a surgeon and if considered a significant node, bx recommended. If adenoCa, RT to node area and hypopharynx employed.
