Morphology, Histopathology, and Anatomical Distribution of Sporadic Colorectal Polyps in Chinese Patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

There are limited data regarding the morphology, histopathology, and anatomical distribution of sporadic colorectal polyps in Chinese patients. We evaluated these characteristics of sporadic polyps to guide the endoscopic detection and excision of colorectal polyps.

Methods

This was a retrospective single-center observational study involving 7381 patients with sporadic colorectal polyps. All polyps were removed endoscopically. The morphology and histopathology of polyps were evaluated according to the Paris classification and the World Health Organization classification, respectively.

Results
