What could cause a solitary slightly enlarged paratracheal lymph node to remain enlarged 11mm for 2 years? malignancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Malignancy: highly unlikely with 2 years of stability. 11mm is only marginally enlarged, if it otherwise looks normal, probably just an outlier under the normal distribution curve.
