  2. Hyperplastic polyp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperplastic_polyp

    Such polyps are termed "inverted hyperplastic polyps". They appear to be restricted to the sigmoid colon and rectum. The misplaced epithelium is mucin-depleted, similar to the basal one-third of the polyp. The misplacement is accompanied by the lamina propria and is continuous with the overlying polyp through a gap in the muscularis mucosae. It ...

    Some of the small polyps in the field defect shown in the photo of the opened colon segment may be relatively benign neoplasms. Of polyps less than 10mm in size, found during colonoscopy and followed with repeat colonoscopies for 3 years, 25% were unchanged in size, 35% regressed or shrank in size while 40% grew in size. [56]

    The risks of progression to colorectal cancer increase if the polyp is larger than 1 cm and contains a higher percentage of villous component. Also, the shape of the polyps is related to the risk of progression into carcinoma. Polyps that are pedunculated (with a stalk) are usually less dangerous than sessile polyps (flat polyps). Sessile ...

    A colorectal polyp is a polyp (fleshy growth) occurring on the lining of the colon or rectum. [1] Untreated colorectal polyps can develop into colorectal cancer. [2] Colorectal polyps are often classified by their behaviour (i.e. benign vs. malignant) or cause (e.g. as a consequence of inflammatory bowel disease).

    In a study of 120 individuals 37% (N=44) had <10 polyps; 3 of these 44 had colorectal cancer. [14] Gastric fundic polyps and duodenal adenomas are also seen. Therefore, polyps and cancers may manifest in the upper portion of the colon or upper gastrointestinal tract rather than the usual locations.? Typical core diagnostic criteria

  7. Benign tumor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benign_tumor

    The cells in tubular adenomas, like most tumors that frequently progress to cancer, show certain abnormalities of cell maturation and appearance collectively known as dysplasia. These cellular abnormalities are not seen in benign tumors that rarely or never turn cancerous, but are seen in other pre-cancerous tissue abnormalities which do not ...
