A member asked:

My wife has a large cholesterol granuloma who can we consult about removal ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to examine: It is not clear what you are calling cholesterol granuloma, as this term is used for a middle ear lesion. You may visit this site for information and consult your doctor to ascertain what type of specialist you should see. If it is a cholesterol granuloma your wife should see an ENT doctor. https://www.upmc.com/services/neurosurgery/brain/conditions/brain-tumors/cholesterol-granuloma
