Moderate epithelial dysplasia is a histological term used to describe abnormal changes in epithelial cells that are considered to be between mild and severe dysplasia. These changes are considered precancerous and may require close monitoring or treatment to prevent progression to cancer. Treatment options may include surgery or other interventions depending on the location and extent of the dysplasia.
