    Dear All,

    • The treatment depends on the growth and size of the polyps
    • Does the patient also have Gallstones?
    • Though 95% of the gallbladder polyps are non canceraus.5% above 1CM size would be an indication to consult a Medical Oncologist/Surgical Gastroenterologist
    • Kindly share us the reports or talk to our medical expert for better assessment
