Could Lump Behind Knee Be Recurred Carcinoid?
I have a lump behind my knee. The MD said it might be a baker s cyst; however he also looked concern and suggested it might be a tumor. I m seeing a specialist this week. I previously had a 2cm carcinoid tumor on my appendix which was removed. I then had a hemicolectomy. I wonder if this could be another carcinoid...what do you think?
