It's completely understandable to feel concerned when finding something in your pathology report that wasn't discussed during your appointment. Many patients discover that lymphovascular invasion can be found in reports without doctors emphasizing it, often because the overall treatment plan and prognosis consider multiple factors together. Consider bringing this specific finding up at your next appointment to get clarity on how it fits into your individual situation and treatment plan.

I too saw lymph-vascular present my oncologist said don’t worry about that. There hasn’t been a lot of research on it, but it scares me that it was on the path report.

You are the only one who is going to be thorough lots of things don't get followed up on or correct chain of command

Trust is great but always confirm. And if you do not get answers, go somewhere else. I switched doctors. Remember- this is your show!
