Polyps and Carcinoma of the Colon

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1957
Introduction 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.

Colon Polyps and Cancer

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,

Polyps and Carcinoma of the Colon

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1981
The 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 ...

Are Polyps of the Colon Premalignant?

Postgraduate Medicine, 1969
The 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.

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.

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.

Polyps of the Colon

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1976
To the Editor.— It is out of my great respect for Dr Richard Marshak as a diagnostic radiologist that I reply to the recent article in the "Topics in Radiology" section (235:2856, 1976) in which Dr Marshak and his co-authors describe their concept of a rational approach to the management of adenomatous polyps of the colon.

Hyperplastic colonic polyps as a marker for adenomatous colonic polyps.

The American journal of gastroenterology, 1989
Hyperplastic colonic polyps are generally regarded as being of little or no clinical consequence. Recently, however, hyperplastic polyps have been found to share numerous functional similarities with colorectal carcinoma. To determine whether the presence of an isolated left-sided colonic hyperplastic (metaplastic) polyp could serve as a marker for ...

POLYPS OF THE COLON

A.M.A. Archives of Surgery, 1953
PEDUNCULATED polyps of the large intestine have been the subject of numerous clinical studies, of many arguments among pathologists, and of some philosophic speculation, especially in the last two decades. Continuing interest in this subject is kept alive by the inescapable fact that final proof regarding the exact life history and potentialities of a ...

Polyps in the colon

Postgraduate Medicine, 1992
Adenomatous polyps in the adult colon and rectum are of great clinical importance because they can undergo malignant degeneration. Size and histologic type are useful in predicting the likelihood of malignancy. In most cases, biopsy is required to distinguish small adenomas (< 1 cm) from hyperplastic polyps, which do not undergo malignant degeneration.
