“…In Dorland‘s Illustrated Medical Dictionary, a “morbid excrescence” is the definition given to the polyp . Polyps are related to adenomatous polyps because of the progress of their pathology and microscopic histology [ 31 ]. Adenomatous polyps are divided in three groups: tubular, villous, and tubule–villous (a mixture of both growth patterns).…”

It is known and accepted that the gut microbiota composition of an organism has an impact on its health. Many studies deal with this topic, the majority discussing gastrointestinal health. Adenomatous colon polyps have a high prevalence as colon cancer precursors, but in many cases, they are hard to diagnose in their early stages. Gut microbiota composition correlated with the presence of adenomatous colon polyps may be a noninvasive and efficient tool for diagnosis with a high impact on human wellbeing and favorable health care costs. This review is meant to analyze the gut microbiota correlated with the presence of adenomatous colon polyps as the first step for early diagnosis, prophylaxis, and treatment.

“…The mutation and upregulated expression of P53 promote the rate of CPs malignancy by accelerating cell proliferation, and inhibiting cell apoptosis (27). The higher the expression of P53 is, the greater the recurrence and malignancy rate of CPs are in patients (28). Based on the above results, we thought that Hp positive might activate the expression of P53 and promote the incidence of CPs, especially multiple CPs and large-diameter CPs.…”

BackgroundIn China, the prevalence and mortality of colorectal cancer (CRC) have always been high, and more than 95% of CRC cases have evolved from colorectal polyps (CPs), especially adenoma. Early detection and treatment of CPs through colonoscopy is essential to reduce the incidence of CRC. Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is regarded as a risk factor for gastritis and gastric cancer and may also be a risk factor for CPs and CRC. However, few studies based on vast clinical cases exist in China to clarify whether Hp is a risk factor for CPs and CRC, and whether Hp-positive patients need to undergo colonoscopy checks earlier. This article attempts to make up for that deficiency.MethodThis cross-sectional study was conducted based on 13,037 patients without a treatment history of Hp who underwent their first gastroscopy and colonoscopy simultaneously at The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University from January 2018 to December 2019. Pearson χ2 test and logistic regression were used to determine whether Hp is a risk factor for CPs and CRC. Multifactor analysis of variance was used to define the impact of Hp on CPs prevalence with different ages, sexes.ResultsFor Chinese individuals, Hp is a risk factor for CPs and CRC. The odds ratio (OR) value are 1.228 (95% CI, 1.130 to 1.336) and 1.862 (95% CI 1.240-2.796), respectively. Hp-positive patients have a higher probability of multiple or large intestinal polyps. However, Hp infection does not increase the incidence of adenomas, nor does it affect the pathological type of adenomas. The OR of Hp on the risk of CPs was 1.432 (95%CI 1.275-1.608) for males but increased to 1.937 (95%CI 1.334-2.815) for those aged 35 to 40. For females, the results were similar.ConclusionsFor the Chinese, Hp is a risk factor for CPs and CRC (OR>1); the infection of Hp increased CPs risk in Chinese of all ages, especially aged 35-40, suggesting that Hp-positive patients should undergo colonoscopy frequently.

“…Overall, inflammatory polyps are believed to arise secondarily to ulceration and repair [ 9 ]. However, in cases after a SH, the exact mechanism for an inflammatory polyp to develop is unclear.…”

Persistent Bleeding Following a Stapled Hemorrhoidopexy

et al. 2016

A stapled hemorrhoidopexy (SH) is widely used for treatment of patients with grades III and IV hemorrhoids. The SH is easy to perform, is associated with less pain and allows early return to normal activities. However, complications, whether severe or not, have been reported. Here, we present the case of a female patient with persistent bleeding after a SH. The bleeding was caused by the formation of granulation tissue at the stapler line, diagnosed with sigmoidoscopy, and successfully treated via transanal excision (TAE) under spinal anesthesia. The biopsy showed inflammatory granulation tissue. After the TAE, her symptom was completely gone.
