Kolorektal polipler, mukoza veya submukoza epitelinden köken alan, barsak lümeni içine çıkıntı yapıp kitle oluşturan lezyonlardır (1,2). Polipler kolorektal kanserlerin (KRK) öncü lezyonları olmalarından dolayı önem arz etmektedir. KRK dünyada ve Türkiye'de en yaygın görülen kanserlerdendir ve kansere bağlı mortalite ve morbiditenin önde gelen nedenlerindendir (3,4). Histolojik özelliklerine göre polipler genel anlamda neoplastik (benign: adenomalar, malign: kar-Bacground and Aims: Colorectal cancer is one among the most frequent cancers globally, and it usually results from colorectal polyps. We herein aimed to reveal the endoscopic and histological features of such polyps, and the prevalence of such polyps in our unit. Materials and Methods: Colonoscopic procedures carried out for any reason in adult patients in our endoscopy laboratory of the gastroenterology unit between 2016 and 2019 were retrospectively screened with an approval of the ethics committee. Polyps that were encountered in colonoscopic procedures and underwent polypectomy with the help of snare or forceps or biopsied were seperated and endoscopic (localization, size, and count) and histological (histopathological diagnosis, dysplasia, and cancer) features of the identified polyps were studied. The resulting data were analyzed in IBM SPSS 22.0. Results: In our study, one or more polyps were found in 362 (17.50%) of the colonoscopy procedures of 2068 patients. Mean age of patients with a polyp was 59.86±11 (19-92) years; mean age of men was 60.36 years and mean age of women was 59.16 years. Of all cases, 236 (65%) were men, and 126 (35%) were women. The distribution of polyps by size in our study was as follows: 298 (66.81%) diminutive polyps, 117 (26.23%) small polyps, and 31 (6.95%) large polyps. Polyps were found to be localized mostly in the sigmoid colon (n = 158, 35.42%), and least frequently in the cecum. In our study, polyps were histologically examined under two main categories as neoplastic ones (n = 270, 60.54%) and non-neoplastic ones (n = 179, 39.46%). The most common histological diagnosis was adenomas from the group of neoplastic polyps (n = 254, 56.95%), and the most frequent type of adenoma was tubular adenoma (n = 222, 87.40%). The second most common diagnosis after adenomas was hyperplastic polyps (n = 131, 29.4%). A low-grade dysplasia in 246 (55.16%) polyps, a high-grade dysplasia in 6 (1.35%) polyps, and an intramucosal adenocarcinoma in 1 (0.22%) polyp were identified when dysplasia/cancer features of polyps were reviewed. An increasing number of neoplastic features was apparent toward the proximal colon. Conclusion: This study was carried out in comparison with the recent studies on the prevalence of colon polyps. In our study, the presence of an increased frequency of polyps having dysplastic features, along with colorectal polyps, which is close to the respective prevalence rate in our country, compared to that in similar studies, was also noteworthy. This reaffirmed the importance of colonoscopy screening and follow-up p...
