Are The Polyps In Lungs Cancerous?

Yes, thank you. My husband was in ER following a car crash Friday & while there a CT was run. Turns out he has a fracetd.rd sternum and polups found in his lungs. Curious as to whether or not this means cancer no question or new growth that has to be monitored in order to determine what kind of aggressive growth it MAY turn out to be?

Hi

Polyps in lung can be cancerous.
I will advise a biopsy test to rule out malignancy.
