My three day old nephew has an abdominal mass (possibly a pulmonary sequestered tumor versus adrenal mass). On CT and MRI he was found to have "Enlarged Lymphnodes". Is this secondary to the mass, is it lymphoma? Is there any correlation between any type of mass and development of lymphoma? We've gotten no answers yet from the hospital docs. Check Out the Answer

Question Category : Lumps
My 11 month old son seems to have a lump inside his back on the right side of the spine. It's barely noticeable, and doesn't feel like a marble or anything. It's about the diameter of a half dollar, but doesn't feel like anything different than the rest of his back. It just is a little more convex there. He's had regular pediatric care during and after pregnancy. I just noticed it today. Is this something I should be worried about? He's due for his 1 yr checkup in 5 weeks, is this too long to wait to get it checked? Check Out the Answer

My 18 month old son has a lump on the right side of his head just above the ear about 2 in length and 1 in width. The lump is raise ever so slightly; only about 1 centimeter. The lump feels hard like bone. It is not at all soft like a tissue tumor would be. He is very normal in every other way. Any ideas what this could be? Is it safe to have a CT done?

My 6 year old son developed visible lumps on both sides of his neck starting a few years ago. In the last 6 months they have grown considerably and now has small ones in his arm pits & groin. He is always fatigued and tires easily in sports. His blood work is good. CT scan shows enlarged nodes and tonsils. We are being referred to a pediatric ENT, then a biopsy. Any suggestions as to what this might be? Check Out the Answer
