A member asked:
What does calcifications mean from a abdominal biopsy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unclear question: Calcification usually follows tissue necrosis. What part of abdomen was biopsied? It would be good to discuss the findings with the pathologist who reported the results, in consultation with your doctor.
