I. Are all colon polyps the same? In fact, there are many kinds of polyps, including inflammatory, proliferative, malformation, adenoma, cancer, etc. The clinical significance of each kind is different, and the cancer rate is also different, and further pathological examination is needed to clarify. Will all polyps become cancerous? Not all polyps are cancerous, and the cancer rates of different types vary a lot. Adenoma is the type of pathology we pay most attention to, because most colon cancers originate from adenoma carcinoma. Therefore, colonic adenomas should be treated as early as possible. However, not all adenomas are cancerous, and therefore, there is no need to be overly nervous. Since other types of polyps have been reported to be individually cancerous, for safety reasons, endoscopic treatment is now basically recommended for colon polyps. C. How to treat polyps endoscopically? The most common endoscopic treatment for polyps is electrodesis, which is routinely performed in most large hospitals and is generally very safe. However, according to the polyp site, size, morphology, pathology type, etc., the difficulty of operation is different, and the risk is also different. IV. What are the risks of endoscopic resection? The most feared risks include bleeding, perforation, incomplete removal of polyps, cardiovascular accidents, as well as the risk of colonoscopy itself, unsatisfactory cleaning of the bowel resulting in leakage, etc. Sometimes additional surgery is needed after removal. V. Why do polyps need to be sent to pathology? As mentioned earlier, there are many types of polyps, each with different clinical characteristics and impact on patients. Therefore, in order to better develop further treatment plans and follow-up plans, polyps should be sent for pathological examination after excision to further clarify the nature of polyps and whether they are completely removed. VI. What should be noted after surgery? 1.After surgery, we should try to avoid activities and forceful movements; 2.Diet should be controlled, choose liquid food, semi-liquid food or soft food with less residue, and patients with high risk of complications may need to fast; 3.Keep the stool open, use laxatives if necessary; 4.Take antibiotics for a short time if necessary; 5.Watch abdominal pain, fever, blood in stool, etc., and return to the hospital for follow-up if necessary; 6.Take pathology results and find doctors Determine the future treatment plan; 7, each patient’s specific situation is different, the doctor may have other instructions. G. Can colon polyps be prevented? There is no drug to prevent or treat polyps. The most effective way is to review colonoscopy or barium enema regularly, and once polyps are found, remove them in time. The specific time of review varies from person to person, and the doctor needs to make a comprehensive judgment according to each person’s situation.
