Case description

There are many fragments of the neoplasia of villous appearance. Colorectal polypoid lesions have a risk for cancer development. Because of their malignancy potential and indistinguishable features from carcinoma at the diagnosis, they should be either excised or submitted for biopsy to assess further intervention. Adenomatous polyps are the most common type among other colorectal polyps. There are three common histopathological types of colorectal adenomatous polyps, namely tubular (67%), villous (5%) and tubulovillous (8%). Among them, villous adenomatous polyps have the greatest potential for cancer development.
