I have a tumor in my calf that might be cancer, it's inside my muscle. What method of biopsy will doctors use?

---

I don't know. That particular episode of House hasn't come up yet. The good news is that the tumor is not in a vital organ. Whatever method of biopsy, I assume the tumor will be removed. Ask the doctor if the biopsy is going to hurt.  (+ info)

What extent of muscle tone looks good on girls?

Is it the well defined kind, such as shapely arms, thighs, calve muscles and hard abs

Or would it look better if it were a smooth sort of tone/tightness. Not as well defined muscles, just slim and sleek?

What are some side effects of brain tumor removal surgery?

---

I know it takes a lot out of you, but do people lose weight due to muscle atrophy?
It very much depends on the tumour and its location, but weight loss occurs in the aftermaths of most serious cancer surgery. Brains are particularly complicated, and surgery there can cause a variety of problems. Reduced control over a part of the body, impaired cognitive functions, fatigue, death, you name it. Of course, there are also cases where people emerge as if nothing had happened.

To accurately guess the implications of your surgery (or your loved one's surgery), you must talk to the surgeon. They are obliged to discuss the risks with you.  (+ info)

What does a weak positive of anti-smooth muscle mean?

---

I have been having problems with my gallbladder. I'm getting it removed because of gallstones. In a routinely ultrasound of my gallbladder it showed a mildly enlarged liver. My doctor ran a liver function test and it came back fine except for a very weak positive of an anti-smooth muscle antibody. He thinks I might have autoimmune hepatitis but he is going to do a liver biopsy when I have my gallbladder removed. Should I have anything to be worry about? I've been doing a lot reading online about anti-smooth muscle and it mentions about hepatitis viral infections. I'm 30 years old and I've been pretty healthy.

A smooth muscle antibody test is positive in some autoimmune disorders, such as chronic active hepatitis. Antibody titre indicates the quantity of antibodies present. This may be useful in monitoring the response to treatment. In autoimmune disorders, the body forms antibodies against its own tissues.  (+ info)
