How long does it take for a stereotactic breast biopsy hematoma to go away?

Sadly that varies patient to patient. Depending on how big the hematoma is, it can take a week to several weeks to go away. If you have had a hematoma for more than 2 weeks post biopsy, or have redness, oozing at the biopsy site, see your physician immediately to be sure there is no infection.


Should you get a second opinion before having cone biopsy?

A cone biopsy is only done after other tests have come back positive, so I don't think a second opinion is medically necessary. In order to practice as a doctor, all doctors have to have passed exams and be licensed to practice. If your smears have show cancerous cells and you do not feel comfortable with your doctor it may be better for you to work with another doctor as it is likely that the treatment will be emotional for you and may last a long time. But doing a cone biopsy after a positive smear test is normal, routine standard procedure.
