What is Colon Polyps?
Colon polyps are a gradual overgrowth of the colonic mucosa, which has chances of becoming malignant. They are present all over the large intestine and are considered as a predisposition to colon cancer. They usually aggravate with age. Asymptomatic when colon polyps are isolated, they can cause occult colonic bleeding in certain cases. Colon polyps develop in the epithelial cells that line the colon and are considered as benign neoplasms.
