Abstract
AIM: To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of colorectal polyps.
METHODS: From January 2014 to March 2015, 90 patients with colorectal adenomatous polyps treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical College for Nationalities were included in a study group, and 90 patients with non-adenomatous polyps were included in a control group. The clinical and pathological characteristics were compared between the two groups of patients.
RESULTS: The rate of bloody stool and average age differed significantly between the two groups (P < 0.05), although there was no significant difference in the change in stool character, anal pendant expansion, diarrhea, abdominal pain, body mass index (BMI) or gender (P > 0.05). The rates of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, lobulation, mucosal roughness and erosion, sessile polyps, multiple polyps, and polyps larger than 1 cm in diameter were significantly higher in the study group than in the control group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Older age and bloody stool are main risk factors for adenomatous polyps. The presence of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, lobulation, mucosal roughness and erosion, sessile polyps, multiple polyps, or polyps larger than 1 cm in diameter suggests the possibility of malignant transformation.
