An result of high-grade abnormalities on a pap smear points out the need for further testing. The biopsy result is normally graded high grade or low grade as well. High-grade abnormalities, left untreated, can progress to cancer. You do not report the grade of your biopsy results. Contact your health care provider for more information on your results and recommended treatment.
