Please help me with this report
Hi, my mother (76yrs old) underwent FNAC test. Report is as follows:
FNAC smears from supraclavicular lymph node shows good cellularity.
Shows polymorphs population of lymphocytes predominantly small mature lymphocytes along with few epitheloid cells.
Background shows caseous necrosis.
AFB Stain - Negative for Acid Fast Bacilli.
Comment: Suggestive of Granulomatous Lymphodenitis.
Is there anything to worry about? Can it be cancer?
I have to wait for 3 days as the doc is on leave. So meanwhile
please guide as to my doubts. Thanks
