Doctor's answer:
The base of the colon polyps is large, and those with a small head are very prone to malignancy. Polyps with stalks are mostly tubular adenomas, with a relatively lower rate of carcinogenesis. Larger or relatively larger polyps are more prone to malignancy, and slower growth of polyps results in fewer malignant changes. The principle of colon polyp management is to remove polyps upon discovery and conduct regular follow-up colonoscopy. Adenomatous polyps are precancerous lesions or conditions.There is a difference between pedunculated and non-pedunculated polyps. If there is a stalk, the possibility of malignancy may be slightly lower; if not, it may be worse. This also needs to be confirmed through pathological examination. Additionally, if there is a stalk, surgery is relatively easier; if not, the base is wider, making the surgery more challenging. Generally, the risk of surgery for colon polyps is not high, and it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment promptly.
