Polyp
MONDO:0005079A usually exophytic mass attached to the underlying tissue by a broad base or a thin stalk. Polyps can be neoplastic or non-neoplastic. Neoplastic polyps usually represent proliferations of the epithelium, and are commonly seen in the gastrointestinal tract. Polyps of the gastrointestinal tract are often called adenomas, are associated with dysplasia, and may eventually transform into carcinomas. Non-neoplastic polyps may be inflammatory, degenerative, or the result of malformations.

AI may catch precancerous polyps from simple blood tests
Diagnosis Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether an artificial intelligence model can use routine laboratory results and patient information to identify people at high risk for colorectal adenomas, which are precancerous polyps. The researchers will collect data from 400 adults undergoing colonoscopy an…

Polyp recurrence after colon cancer surgery: a clue to better Follow-Up?
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study looks at 3,000 people who had surgery for colorectal cancer to see how often polyps come back in the colon afterward. Researchers will check if the type and stage of the original cancer are linked to polyp recurrence. The goal is to improve follow-up care by identifyin…
