What are abnormal results of a lung biopsy?

Abnormal results of a lung biopsy may include:

- Cancer: The biopsy may show the presence of cancerous cells in the lung tissue. This can be a primary lung cancer, which starts in the lungs, or it can be metastatic cancer, which has spread to the lungs from another part of the body.

- Infection: The biopsy may show signs of an infection in the lungs, such as the presence of bacteria or fungi.

- Inflammation: The biopsy may show evidence of inflammation in the lungs, such as the presence of inflammatory cells or scarring.

- Other abnormalities: The biopsy may show other abnormalities, such as the presence of foreign material or abnormal tissue growth.

The specific interpretation of the biopsy results will depend on the individual case and should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
