The letter that I got from my doctor said Biopsies that I took of the area around the papilla where the bile drains do show features of tubular adenoma.However there are no cancer cells and no atypical cells seen. Does this mean the polyps could turn into cancer?I cant talk to my doctor today cause hes gone already and I dont want to be worrying about it until I am able to talk to him. some of you must not be able to read very good cause I said I couldnt talk to my Doctor the day I got my letter.I know what precancerous polyps are I had them in my colon and had to have my colon removed 3 months ago.What I would like to know is if I had 1 is there a good chance of getting more.And if Doctor doesnt catch them in time will they turn into cancer?I have to go in yearly for a upper endoscopy.
