Hi
Thanks for your query.
I appreciate your concern for the biopsy report.

Dyplasia is a precancerous condition in which cells which are very similar to cancer cells grow locally in an organ without the ability to invade into tissue or metastasize (spread to areas distant from where they started).

Dysplasia is the earliest localized form of pre-cancerous lesion which can be cured by surgical excision.

This biopsy report needs to be correlated with your clinical examination by an oncologist.

Hope this answers your query.
Take care.
