Leiomyomatous colonic polyps are rare. We report a patient with an asymptomatic 15-mm submucosal polyp in the sigmoid colon. The tumor was successfully removed by endoscopy. Histopathological examination revealed a leiomyoma originating in the muscularis mucosa.

Polyps and Carcinoma of the Colon
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1957Introduction Carcinoma of the large bowel has been found significantly more often in chronic ulcerative colitis than in the general population of the same age, sex, and race.1Before this conclusion was reached a variety of questions had to be answered: 1. What is the "normal" frequency of polyps and carcinoma of the large bowel? 2.

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1997
Colon polyps may be single or multiple, noninherited or inherited, histologically may vary from inflammatory, hamartomatous, neurogenic, or adenomatous, and may be benign or malignant. The various recognized syndromes are discussed including their clinical presentation, malignant potential, and associated tumors. Recognition of these clinical syndromes

Endoscopy, 2000
The superiority of colonoscopy to double-contrast barium enema in detecting neoplasia was finally demonstrated in 2000, but colonoscopic surveillance programs are still based on short-term observations and are mostly inadequate, despite the prospective design of the trials. The evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of virtual colonoscopy is in progress,

Are Polyps of the Colon Premalignant?
Postgraduate Medicine, 1969The theoretical ferment over whether colonic polyps become malignant often boils down to a practical question: Should polyps beyond the reach of the sigmoidoscope be biopsied? In Dr. Behringer's opinion, they should be if the surgical risk is not too great. Dr.

Polyps and Carcinoma of the Colon
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1981The concept of a polyp-cancer sequence in the colon as well as risk factors for carcinoma such as genetic predisposition, diet, and socioeconomic status are explored. Sigmoidoscopy and testing the stool for occult blood are currently the best techniques for screening high-risk populations and, by the early detection of polyps in the colon, can ...

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1954
The intimate relationship between benign mucosal polyps and cancer of the colon and rectum (fig. 1) has been generally recognized, particularly by surgeons and pathologists who have had a special interest in this disease. Several general statements can be made that summarize this relationship.

Endoscopy, 1999
A number of recent publications dealing with colon polyps and cancer emphasize cost-effectiveness and the outcomes of screening and follow-up surveillance of high-risk groups. These groups include patients with either a past personal history or a family history of colorectal adenomas or cancer.
