What Are The Chances Of Recovery After D&C And Biopsy?
How long is recovery for a woman 71years old who is having a d&c and a biopsy of her uterus becaus she has very thickening wall (which I understand is unusual in the elderly). The Pap smear said needed biopsy because was abnormal reading. Biopsy was tried and doctor couldn t get enough tissue for biopsy. Therefore, d&c is scheduled. What s the percentage chance of it being cancerous ?
