Cannot get to malignancy

MASS, RECTUM, BIOPSY:
- SUPERFICIAL FRAGMENTS OF TUBULAR ADENOMA WITH HIGH-GRADE DYSPLASIA, SEE COMMENT.

COMMENT:
The clinical suspicion is noted.

Selected slides were reviewed internally and felt to be insufficient to
call malignancy. The presence of malignancy cannot be excluded.

A re-biopsy should be considered within the clinical context.
