- Abstract
Objective: Colorectal polyps are tissue masses originating from the mucosa and submucosa in the gastrointestinal system and extending into the intestinal lumen. Since polyps have a risk of cancer, the detected polyp should be removed by colonoscopy and examined histopathologically. In our study, we evaluated polyps that were removed colonoscopically and underwent histopathological examination. Method: 2,267 colonoscopy reports made in the Gastroenterology Endoscopy Unit at University of Health Sciences Turkey Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Training and Research Hospital between 2013 - 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were analyzed according to polyp incidence, male-female ratio, average age, polyp location and polyp type. Results: Colonoscopy was performed on 2,267 patients for various reasons, and polyps were found in 302 (13.3%). One hundred seventy three (57.3%) of the cases were rectosigmoid, 67 (22.7%) descending colon, 47 (15.6%) transverse colon, 35 (11.6%) ascending colon and 13 (4.3%) polyps were seen in the cecum. 168 (55.6%) adenoma, 120 (39.7%) tubular adenoma, 41 (13.6%) tubulovillous adenoma, 7 (2.3%) villous adenoma, 30 (7%) inflammatory polyps, 10 (3.3%) were mucosal, 3 (1%) were serrated, 2 (0.7%) were lipomas. 52 (17.2%) of the cases were determined as adenocarcinoma and 71 (23.5%) as hyperplastic polyps. According to their size, 227 (75.2%) of the polyps were below 1 cm and 75 (24.8%) were over 1 cm. Conclusion: The results in our study were found to be compatible with the literature. Since it is impossible to determine the risk endoscopically, all polyps detected during endoscopy should be removed or coagulated and followed.
