“…Some colon polyps are proliferative changes, and some are adenomas [ 11 ]. Some polyps, such as papillary polyps and colon polyps, have a high carcinogenesis rate, and colorectal cancer is one of the deadliest but preventable malignancies [ 12 ]. In recent years, it has become one of the deadliest diseases in the world [ 13 ].…”
