A member asked:

Iv'e just been told i have a tubulovillous adenoma with low grade dyspiasia and have to go and have it removed, does that mean its cancerous, ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Tubovillous adenoma has potential to become malignant, low grade dysplasia means not (yet) malignant , get it removed keep your worry away, you will be fine. Your doctor will explain to you.
