Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It appears to be a papilloma (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity), a benign condition.

Usually, it has a pedicle, and it can be excised even under local anesthesia. It should be sent for histopathological examination to confirm its nature.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
