Page 2: Colorectal  polyp

Colorectal polyp is projecting mass into the lumen of bowel above the surface of epithelium.

Polyp is word descriptive for the shape of lesion (not related to the pathological process)

Polyposis :multiple polyps Polypoid Colorectal polyps are considerd slow

growing tumour The term “malignant polyp” refers to a

macroscopically benign appearing adenoma in which the invasive carcinoma is detected after histologic examination of the resected specimen.

Classification of polyps

According to the shape According to the histology

Page 4: Colorectal  polyp

According to the shape

1. Pedunculated ( with stalk)2. Sessile (no stalk ,no neck )

Page 5: Colorectal  polyp

According to the histopathology Polyps such as hyperplasic,juvenile and inflammatory polyps have no

malignantpotential,although polyps do have malignant potentiaMalignant Benign Type

Neoplasma (1/3 of crc have benign polyp) Tubular adenoma : 60-80 % usually pedunculated polyp Villous (finger like projection): 5-10 % usually sessile more precancerous cellular changes (sever

atypia) Tubulovillous adenoma : 10 – 25 %

Page 7: Colorectal  polyp

The prognostic factors :(polyps transformed to carcinoma)The presence of poor prognostic features should lead the physician to favor colectomy 1. Polyp size more than 1 cm are found to harbor

cancers more than the cells

size less than 4 mm usually hyperplastic (no malignant changes but should be excised

sessile polyp more than 2 cm usually villous with high malignant changes and high recurrence rate

2.Shape of the polyp : the invasion of adenocrcinoma in pedunculated polyp need travel during head,neck,stalk before reaching the submucosa (polypectomy not appropriate) contrast with sessile where just travel the basement membrane

3.Histopatholo of the polyp :

the villous subdivision are associated with the highest malignant potential because they have the largest surface area ,no stalk and no neck.

2 cm sized tubular adenoma _35%risk of malignancy

2 cm sized villous adenoma _50 % risk

Page 11: Colorectal  polyp

4.Multiple polyps more prognostic than single (familial adenomatous polyposis) 100% risky

5. Missed polypectomy or patient refuse even smaller one(polypectomy of small polyps decreases the cancer incidence up to 70%.

6.risk of age ,family history,smoking

(the peak incidence of crc is 60 years of age ,the peak incidence of colorectal polyp discovering is 50 years of age ,this means 10 years time span for progression )

In the United States, the prevalence of adenomatous polyps found during colonoscopic evaluation ranges from 25 to 41%, and of these, 2 to 5% contain invasive malignancy.

Endoscopic resection by polypectomy has been shown to be sufficient for management of certain polyps containing cancer.

Hagitt criteria

Page 13: Colorectal  polyp

 Depth of invasion has been shown to correlate with the risk of lymph node metastasis. Other unfavorable histologic features include lymphovascular invasion, poor differentiation, inability to assess margin (piecemeal resection), and positive resection margin (<2 mm); these are important factors to consider in management. For these patients formal oncologic surgical resection is indicated.

Polypectomy is usually performed during colonoscopy using snare polypectomy techniques. High-quality polypectomy is the complete excision of the polyp, which should include the entire stalk to its base. The submucosa of the bowel wall should be included to allow optimal histologic evaluation of the margins.

 Level 0 indicates carcinoma in situ or intramucosal carcinoma. These lesions are not invasive, and therefore behave as benign adenomas due to an absence of lymphatics in the mucosal laye

Level 0 Carcinoma in situ or intramucosal carcinoma. Not invasive. Level 1 Carcinoma invading through muscularis mucosa into submucosa, but limited to the head of the polyp. Level 2 Carcinoma invading the level of the neck of the adenoma. Level 3 Carcinoma invading any part of the stalk . Level 4 Carcinoma invading into the submucosa of the bowel wall below the stalk of the polyp, but above the muscularis propria.

Page 15: Colorectal  polyp

Level 1 (above the junction between the adenoma and

the stalk). Colorectal resection is not necessary if the line of resection of the stalk is free , routine follow-up is needed

Level 2: carcinoma invading to the level of the

neck of adenoma (the junction of adenoma and stalk).

Surgical Resection is not necessary if the margin of

of the stalk is free and endoscopic follow-up is

needed.

Page 16: Colorectal  polyp

Level 3: carcinoma invading any part of the stalk.

A free margin of resection precludes the necessarily

for any formal colorectal resection. Level 4: carcinoma invading the submucosa of

bowel wall below the stalk of the polyps but above the

muscular propria. This is invasive cancer and a formal

bowel resection is necessary\,

By definition all sessile polyps with invasive carcinoma are level 4. Hence, resection of bowel wall is indicated.

Colonoscopy surveillance and surveillance intervals for colorectal polyps

polyp sized less than 1 cm detected on colonoscopy ,otherwise normal ,h/p of this polyp was hyperplastic _go home and colonoscopy repeated after 10 years .

If the polyp was large sessile ,complete excision done this patient need colonscopy follow up after 3_months

Resectional polypectomy of malignant non invasive polyp __need follow up colonscopy after 12 months ,after this period as for ordinary adenoma

Resectional polypectomy of high grade dysplasia _colonscopy repeated after 3 months if normal repeated at 1 year if normal 5 years

Resected of Single tubular adenoma less than 1 cm no need for follow up

Page 18: Colorectal  polyp

Resection of adenoma +3 polyps +previous h/o other cancer __need colonscopy every 5 years

For patient who have had surgical resection of colon cancer need follow up with colonscopy every 6 months for the initial 2 years

Low risk (size <1cm,no.1-2 )repeated after 5 years

Intermediated risk (size >1cm ,no. 3-4 ) :after 3 years

High risk(>1cm ,no. more than 5 ) : after one year

N.b the three risk degrees are exchangable .
