A member asked:
Hi i have cirrhosis of the liver and they found something in a cat scan, portocaval lymph node measures 2.5, what does this mean , is it cancer????
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: It's also not uncommon just have a big benign node here. With no nearby tumors seen, the node is unlikely to be malignant.
