HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the polyps that is being remove surgically may not be malignant lesion, else you would have been informed for that, surgeon must have found this benign one, still to clear the doubt biopsy is the only option can be tried, else this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps.
