Barbra Streisand says she's doing well after going under the knife to remove a polyp in her colon. "During a routine colonoscopy earlier this year, Barbra Streisand's doctor discovered a benign polyp," her rep told us. "The removal of the single polyp was done earlier this month, and its benign nature was reaffirmed. It did not delay her scheduled promotional activities for 'Meet the Fockers.'"
The "Yentl" star, nervous about surgery in general, seems to be okay.
"I don't think it's a big deal," one friend of Babs told us. "I just saw her last week, and she looked fine."
But The National Enquirer reports that Streisand was terrified that the polyp was cancerous.
"Shortly before the operation, Barbra was shaking and saying, 'It can't be cancer, it just can't,' " a source told the tab, which reports that the reason for the delay of the procedure was because Streisand is "deathly afraid of surgery."
Polyps can be an early sign of colorectal cancer, which affects 150,000 Americans a year.

I hope and pray for the best. I wonder if this will get her thinking that she will not live forever - tends to change one's thoughts on certain social issues...
IN her colon? I thought she WAS a colon
Barbra Streisand herself is one gigantic polyp on the colon of humanity.
I feel sorry for that colonscope.
She needs to have that big polyp on her nose removed.
Don't hold your breath.
I never liked any of her singing after THAT ballad. NOW, her tight, through-the-nose singing just annoys me.
No, no.....this is waaaay too easy.
Let me guess....it turned out to be her head.
The YENTL star????? When the hell did she do YENTL???
Obviously you weren't looking in the same place as her doctor.
What is "Meet the Fockers"?
The polyp is doing well after successful surgery to remove a Barbra Streisand from it. ;)
What's the starting price for the polyp on E-bay?
Ok.
I suppose they think it is clever, being one letter off.
I saw a guy in the mall with a sweatshirt with big letters across the front of it...FKUC (I think).
I think I have seen a perfume like that as well.
Aren't they just such a high-class bunch?
FCUK - French Connection UK. It's silly, but they just have to stick the acronym in your face on every ad.
