should I have them removed

[barrymum]

I recently had a biopsy on two lumps which turned out to be papillomas. The doctor wants to remove them. Is it really necessary as they know they are benign but say the cells are showing unusual activity.

Hi,

Ask your doctor for a copy of the biopsy report and discuss with him/her

what does he/she mean by unusual activity.

You could talk to a breast specialist and clear out any doubts that you

have.

Also, keep in mind that if your physician or doctor is suggesting a removal

based on your case history, clinical evaluation and reports , you should

yourself be a little biased towards an excisional biopsy or removal of the

lumps.

Talk about the procedure with your surgeon, so that you can decide

accordingly.

Let us know if you have any other doubts.

Hope this helps.

Regards.

I believe I would go with the recommendation of the Physician. If he / she thinks it wise to remove them I wouldn't take a chance and go against that advice. Removing two lumps wouldn't be much of an inconvenience.
