EVERY histology report from a colonoscopy procedure will include the words "pre-cancerous" or "atipia". Just like when dermatologists send a sample to the histo lab.

Every cell in your body is "pre-cancerous" but having that word on the report is all about 1) defensive medicine and 2) scare tactics to help convince patients to sign up for more scheduled diagnostic procedures.

Just in case.

Mine said "normal", "moderate sedation" and "no specimens collected". Said to return in 10 years.
