Hello dont get worried. Single asymptomatic polyp less than 1cm in size just needs to be observed. Ideally you should go for a usg every 6 months. But since you have family history i recommend a usg every 4 months. If it crosses 1 cm size or if a second polyp grows you should go for laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Health Tips
