Brief Answer:
Since there is no specific treatment prognosis can not be predicted

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the reports and understood the concerns.
Histopathological report indicate more towards sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis has no definite treatment and hence it is difficult to know the further prognosis.
Symptomatic treatment is advocated if patient develops any symptoms.
In short, a regular follow up by your treating Doctor and management as needed is key to a better prognosis.

I hope this answers your specific query.
Please let me know if any treatment was given after the surgery or as of now.
