Cervical polyp
Treatment consists of simple removal of the polyp and prognosis is generally good.[8] They may also occur as a result of raised levels of estrogen or clogged cervical blood vessels.[4] Diagnosis can be confirmed by a cervical biopsy which will reveal the nature of the cells present.[3] They may be attached to the cervix by a stalk (pedunculated) and occasionally prolapse into the vagina where they can be mistaken for endometrial polyps or submucosal fibroids.[4] 99% of cervical polyps will remain benign and 1% will at some point show neoplastic change.
