Broad-based polyps refer to polyps with a large base and are generally benign lesions that can be surgically removed and pathologically examined, with specific treatment recommended by your doctor.
Polyps are epithelial or mucosal growths that may occur in the stomach or intestines, and can be categorized by their appearance as pedunculated polyps, subpedunculated polyps, and broad-based polyps.
Broad-based polyps are large polyps at the base, which are usually benign. If broad-based polyps are detected during gastroenteroscopy, they can be endoscopically removed and pathologically examined to determine the pathological type of the polyp, make a definitive diagnosis, and guide the follow-up program.
According to the pathological type, non-adenomatous polyps have a low risk of malignancy, while adenomatous polyps usually have a certain risk of cancer and should be taken seriously.
