Colon polyps 0.6cm malignancy may be small, most of them are benign, but malignancy can not be completely excluded, and histopathological examination is needed to make a clear diagnosis.
Intestinal polyps are generally asymptomatic, but attention should be paid to their malignant transformation. Most colon cancers originate from previously benign adenomatous polyps, so adenomatous (neoplastic) polyps should be taken seriously. These lesions are histologically classified as tubular adenomas, tubular chorioadenomas (chorioallantoic adenomas), or chorioallantoic adenomas.
The likelihood of an adenomatous polyp being cancerous when detected is related to its size, histologic type, and degree of atypical hyperplasia; a 1.5-cm tubular adenoma carries a 2% risk of cancer, whereas a 3-cm-long choriocapillaris adenoma carries a 35% risk of cancer; serrated adenomas are relatively more aggressive and may originate from hyperplastic polyps.
The malignancy of a 0.6 cm colon polyp is very unlikely, and it is recommended that the patient may undergo further colonoscopic resection followed by pathologic examination to clarify the nature of the polyp.
