A member asked:
Statistically what is the likelihood of malignancy for a 0.5cm erythematous endocervical polyp for a symptomatic pt w/ spotting, pain & pelvic fluid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low chance: Cervical polyps are rarely cancerous. They are actually very common. The chances would be less than 1 percent. Waiting is always nerve racking even when are told that there is a very low risk.
