A member asked:
Is an 8.4 mm mediastinal lymphnode any concern?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends...: Lymph nodes less than 1 cm in size are usually not concerning. Smokers are at increased risk of lung cancer. See your doctor and follow this lymph node...If it increases in size, you may want to see a pulmonologist or thoracic surgeon.
