Hello, thanks for asking on healthcaremagic. This report suggests squamous cell carcinoma which is infiltrative ie spreading along the margins. It is a malignancy and hence serious. You need to consult a gyneac immediately to go in for surgery and chemo radio as indicated by the gyneac/surgeon. Hope i answered your query. Thanks
