A member asked:
Dysplasia cells in the lining of my stomach. what is the likely hood of turning to cancer. i see my dr in 6 months.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It really depends: The chances of turning into cancer depends on many factors, the main one being if it is high or low grade. Other factors that may need to be addressed would be a possible infection such as h pylori playing a role or excessive acid production. I would recommend you clarify precisely what the finding was and what the treatment and follow up should be with the diagnosing physician before 6 months.
