Mom has a small polyp in the lumen of gall bladder.is it is a big deal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If removed: Gall bladder polyp will have high incidence of malignancy especially if it is over 2cm, if gall bladder is removed no 'big deal' by a simple surgery, if it transforms to malignancy, cancer of gall bladder has very poor prognosis.
