Hello! Thank you for submitting your question! Please answer the question: "Should esophageal papillomas be removed and biopsied?" As follows:
Esophageal papillomatosis is also very common, at a certain size, the doctor will cut the papilloma during endoscopic examination, the cutting is not too complicated and there is almost no need for further treatment after cutting. You can go to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more specific advice from doctors.
