My boyfriend had thymoma cancer 22 years ago & just found out their is a large mass in his chest in the same location. He needs to have a biopsy done but we were not impressed with the pulmonologist who saw him. Should he find an oncologist to perform the biopsy?
Ideally it would be advisable to consult a thoracic surgeon for the biopsy as the approach for biopsy is well decided by them. Even an oncologist would probably take their help for performing biopsy, also depends on location of the mass. After confirming cancer you may require oncologists advice.
