Gastroscopy found hpv papilloma in esophagus.biopsy results negative for malig.doctor recommends annual endoscopy follow ups.should i be worried?

HPV: You are worried. If you follow up with your doctor with regularity as suggested you should be able to control any complications should they occur. You might want to go ahead and get the hpv vaccine anyway.

Not really: Plenty of folks have hpv of the esophagus and you wouldn't have been scoped if there wasn't suspicion. I'd get the annual check if available; we'll be looking for premalignancy and nowadays we just laser this off. Glad you're getting good care.
