Question
I am 61 years old, recently tested CEA = 8 high. I did a colonoscopy and discovered there were 03 polyps (size 0.3-0.7 mm) I cut and biopsied for ductal adenomas with high-grade dysplasia of polyps. Ask your doctor, is this result a sign of colon cancer? In fact, my current health is normal, so is going to the toilet, but I smoke a lot (average 1 pack/day). Please consult your doctor.

Hello uncle! His case is classified as high risk (high-grade dysplastic ductal polyps, 3 polyps). If the colonoscopy has removed all polyps, I will re-examine within 3 years, if the endoscopic doctor describes that the polyps are not removed, I will re-examine within 2-6 months. Depending on the results of the re-scan and the pathology at the time of re-examination, you have a plan to continue.
Thank you for your question to Vinmec Health System. Best regards.
