[|Human|] I had a MRI and CT scan of my thoracic spine after which I was told that I have a mass attached to a muscle at the T6 level. The appearance favors a benign myxoma,fibroma, or hamartoma . Are any of these likely to grow and should I see another doctor for a second opinion and if so what kind of doctor? The doctor that did all this testing is a neurologist. Should I see another neurologist or go straight to a surgeon?
[|AI|]  Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. All three tumors mentioned are benign and affect mainly muscles. Maxima is found mostly in the heart. All three tumors have a low probability, but present, to be aggressive, so if you have moderate to severe symptoms, I suggest surgery and after biopsy result close follow up. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
