high-grade dysplasia

High-grade dysplasia refers to significantly abnormal cells in tissue, often detected in areas like the cervix or esophagus, that are precancerous. These cells show advanced changes in appearance and behavior compared to normal cells, indicating a higher likelihood of developing into cancer if left untreated. It is considered a serious warning sign, and early removal or treatment can prevent progression to invasive cancer. Regular medical monitoring and appropriate interventions are important to manage high-grade dysplasia effectively.
