Yes. I also have adenocarcinoma of right lung.  I am stage iv
I had adenocarcinoma of lung but after surgery called it malignant neoplasm what's this mean? I was given 1-5 years to live but told me got all the cancer. My bones and muscles pain and ache constantly. It's been 2 years since surgery. I dont understand the malignant neoplasm diagnosis. Nothing was done after surgery of left lobectomy of lung.
Adenocarcinoma is a malignant neoplasm. Neoplasms can be divided into benign and malignant. Malignant neoplasm is what we commonly call cancer.

The bone and muscle pain may be a sign of cancer metastasis, so you should see a doctor and get examined.
Thank u for your answer. Waiting for results of my ct now!
Good luck.

It's stage IV, follow doctor's advice might be the best choice. The first step is to choose a good cancer center. Next is to choose a solid medical team in this cancer center. Then listen to your medical team.
After they ran some tests and I left the clinic I was looking at my sheet of paper with my results on him and it is said malignant neoplasm in the trunk unspecified what does that mean?
it means you have malignant tumor,but the Histopathology is not specified, Different cell-derived cells have different prognosis.
On my blood work order it says diagnoses malignant neoplasm of endometrium.what does that exactly mean .i had a total hysteromy in Oct.2018.because of cancer.ive had my 1st round of chemo.
You have diagnosed endometrial cancer and have performed a total hysterectomy. You only need to follow the doctor's request with postoperative chemotherapy, and then return to the clinic regularly.
I had a lumpectomy in 2014 on my left breast. Was diagnosed with VERY HIGH  RISK with DCIS of getting it again. I had a mammogram in October 2018, my diagnosis’s was Malignant Neoplasm on the left breast BUT the oncologist and breast surgeon both said that just to get a repeat in January 2019 for a diagnostic mammogram. I’ve been sitting on pins and needles for 3 months. Should I be concerned? I’m scared out of my wits! Please help with any info, thanks!
You will have a general follow-up of 3-6 months in the first year after surgery. Try to relax,unless you are not sure if there is a breast lumps again,see your doctor early.
And, this false positive occurs more frequently in women aged 40-50.
Hi, I hope this can help. The screening of mammogram isn't perfect, lately experts say some women with early breast cancer diagnosed by mammogram may never have affected their health. That's why your doctors both of them suggest to wait a year.
Thanks for info.
I also need to know  am I supposed to have pain when I touch the area of the lump?
Usually a malignant tumor isn't painful until the late stage. However I think I replied the other day that mammogram has a high rate of false positive, that's why your doctor asked you to wait for a year.
Hi Ms. Hairston, as you know malignant neoplasm means cancer, surgical resection is recommended in this case, then you will wait for the postoperative pathological results for further evaluation and treatment. The lump is small, trust your doctors.
Thanks for info.
