Whether an ileocecal broad-based polyp is an adenoma or an inflammatory polyp can only be determined by colonoscopy plus pathologic tissue examination. When a polyp is present in the intestines, the most important thing to do to determine its tissue nature is to do a pathologic examination, which is the gold standard for diagnosis. Polyps can be biopsied under colonoscopy, sent to the pathology department, and then stained to observe the structure of the cells, morphology, etc., to determine the nature of the lesion. Broad-based polyps are polyps with a wide base attached to the intestinal wall, which are more likely to become cancerous. Ileocecal polyp is a polyp that grows in the ileocecal part of the colon, which may be an inflammatory polyp or a polypoid adenoma. Polyp growths in the intestine should be taken very seriously and should be followed up regularly in the hospital. If the polyp grows rapidly or if symptoms such as abdominal pain, blood in the stool, constipation, etc. appear, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid delaying your condition.
