Dysplasia is the earliest form of pre-cancerous lesion recognizable in a biopsy by a pathologist. It does not mean you will be on a timeline to develop cancer. Everyone is different and while some will turn into cancer, others do not. Im sorry but I do not understand what Papillary Epitheial Proliferation means.
Hope I eased your mind a little.
