Tracey-dilitation of cervix and scraping of the uterine lining(curettage)usually is an outpt' procedure--may be done under local block or spinal.Complications would include perforation of uterus,cervical damage or infection.All rel. rare.A telescope(hysteroscope)could be introduced into uterus to get better idea of polyp's location.
