Is it time for a second, and maybe third, opinion? Is it possible that what is seen in the lymph node biopsycis just something in that one lymph node? Is there any value in a second biopsy, reviewed by a different pathologist? A vacuum-assisted wide-needle biopsy can provide more tissue for more-thorough analysis and I know of a case where it changed a diagnosis for the better.
