[|Human|] I have been having pain and other symptoms in my luq of abdomen /chest wall ribs etc. I had a supposedly lipoma removed in 2005 from the same are mostly closer to the surface but when they removed it i could feel them pulling and ripping the mass from my ribs. So jump to now! I had an ultra sound dec 10 and they found the following : 5.4 x 3.6 echoic mass anterior left upper abdominal lower chest wall adjacent to multiple ribs with acoustic shaddowing MRI done Fri results unknown
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Echoic mass in abdominal and chest wall is more suggestive of cancerous growth. Size (5.4*3.6) of the mass is also more. So possibility of rhabdomyosarcoma (muscle tumor) or bone tumor is more in your case. So MRI is needed to confirm the malignant nature and to know the extension in the deeper and adjacent structures. You will also need fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC FNAC) or Biopsy from the mass to identify the type of cancer. You may need excision Biopsy and chemotherapy after confirmation of diagnosis. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
