Colon polyps are growths, similar to tiny bumps, that develop on the inner lining of your colon or rectum. While they are typically harmless, certain types can potentially develop into colon cancer over many years. Healthcare providers routinely remove colon polyps when they are discovered during a colonoscopy.

Colon polyps generally do not cause symptoms. Regular screening tests are crucial because polyps discovered early can usually be safely and completely removed. The most effective way to prevent colon cancer is through regular screening and timely removal of polyps.

Types

There are two types of Polyp removal surgeries:

Uterine polypectomy
Colon Polypectomy

Rectal polyps are abnormal tissue growths in the rectum that may be benign or precancerous. They are excised to alleviate symptoms such as bleeding or obstruction, prevent them from becoming colorectal cancer, and allow pathological examination to determine their nature.

You should consult a physician if you experience abdominal pain, mucus in your stool, unexplained weight loss, rectal bleeding, changes in your bowel habits (such as constipation or diarrhoea), or if you have a family history of colon cancer or polyps. Screening is particularly crucial if you are at high risk.

Typically, preparation involves fasting, medication adjustments, and a bowel prep regimen to empty the colon (laxatives or enemas). You must inform your doctor of any allergies, diabetes medications, or blood thinners before your colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy. The process also encompasses preoperative counselling and consent.

Polypectomy during sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy: Most frequent technique; polyps are cut and snared with an electrical current (electrocautery).
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR): For larger or flatter polyps.
Surgical resection: Indicated for large polyps or those with cancer suspicion.

The process usually takes 20 to 60 minutes. Most people can go home that same day. Full recovery typically takes a few days, depending on the patient's condition and the complexity of the procedure.

Bleeding
Perforation
Infection
Cramping

Its removal relieves symptoms, reduces the risk of colorectal cancer, and allows for earlier cancer detection. With significant long-term preventive benefits, it's an low-risk outpatient procedure.

For several days, patients can experience mild cramping, bloating, or minimal rectal bleeding. A soft diet may be advised for some time. Avoid strenuous physical activity for 24 to 48 hours. Any further management will be based on the pathology results and follow-up advice.

Depending on size and location, success rates for large or complex polyps, particularly those removed with advanced procedures like endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), range from 85% to 95%.
