My pulmonologist tells me that the granuloma tumors that I have in my lungs (four in the left lung and one on the right) is from the COPD. He has ruled out sarcoidosis. I would like to know that are the chances that these granuloma tumors will turn cancerous.
I've never heard of a "granuloma tumor of the lung", but there are many disease processes that can give you granulomatous changes in the lung. Two common examples are sarcoidosis and tuberculosis.
The cause is unknown.
Lung neoplasm means lung tumor.
Its best to get any lumps aspirated at the vet to be on the safe side.
No, a tumor in the lungs is a sign of lung cancer.
Sartre died of a tumor in his lung.
Chances are, the lung tumor is actually causing your dogs cough. If your dog has gotten a secondary illness due to the tumor, or the tumor is damaging the lung tissue more, then you need to consult your veterinarian about the best way to proceed. At the very least, they can prescribe medications that will make your dog more comfortable. I wish you the best of luck.
There are several symptoms associated with lung tumors. One major sign is if you start coughing up blood. Chest paint and shortness of breath are two other symptoms. If you get recurring respiratory infections that could be another sign that you may have a lung tumor. If you are truly concerned that you have a lung tumor I would not hesitate to go to a doctor.
