Hi,
Fibrocollangeous tissue with lymphoid cell collection in biopsy report indicates chronic inflammation of the affected tissue along with lymphoid cell infiltration.
Your report says that there is no evidence of tuberculosis or cancerous changes. However, the report needs to be correlated clinically with your clinical symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
