Occult Dysplasia in a Localized Giant Pseudopolyp in Crohn’s Colitis: A Case Report

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2009
Localized giant pseudopolyposis of the colon (pseudopolyp larger than 1.5 cm in size) is a rare complication of inflammatory bowel disease. There is one report of an occult carcinoma within such a lesion, and no reports of sole dysplasia.

Development of a risk scoring system for predicting advanced colorectal neoplasia within subcentimetric polyps: A population‐based study

Journal of Digestive Diseases, Volume 25, Issue 7, Page 436-443, July 2024.
The present study devised a risk score for prediction of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACN) based on seven elementary variables, namely, age, gender, inpatient colonoscopy, chronic disease count, anemia, and other nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
