May need: This may need surgery. High grade dysplaisia is cancer until proven otherwise. Make sure entire polyp is removed or it may need surgery to ensure no cancer under lying.

No, but: Risk is higher. Nothing in medicine is sure. It also means you'll be invited back for more regular looks. The standard is once a decade after 50, but ask what your schedule will be with this development.
