It may appear on the skin, but may also appear in the stomach, gallbladder, and uterus. Therefore, as long as a bulge is found in the large intestine, it can be called a polyp, but not all polyps are related to colorectal cancer. Clinically, adenomatous polyps are likely to develop into cancer. Adenomas with a higher risk of transforming into cancer are those that are larger than 1 cm, have villous components and a high degree of cellular atypia after pathological testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"603\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-02.jpg\" alt=\"\u761c\u8089\u6210\u9577\" class=\"wp-image-2669\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-02.jpg 603w, https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-02-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-02-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-02-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 603px) 100vw, 603px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">80~95% of colorectal cancers evolve from polyps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to statistics, 80 to 95% of colorectal cancers evolve from polyps slowly over the years. The average time it takes for a normal colorectal mucosa to become a colorectal adenomatous polyp is about 10 years, but it only takes about 5 years for an adenomatous polyp to become colorectal cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people may find large intestinal polyps during health check-ups, but since polyps often have no symptoms when they first appear, they are easily ignored. Therefore, if the polyps can be removed before they become large or turn into early-stage cancer, the chance of suffering from colorectal cancer will be greatly reduced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"603\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-03.jpg\" alt=\"\u761c\u8089\u8207\u5927\u8178\u764c\u95dc\u4fc2\" class=\"wp-image-2670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-03.jpg 603w, https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-03-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-03-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231221_HKMED_HKMED-website-blog-post-2-03-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 603px) 100vw, 603px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not all polyps must be removed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But not all polyps must be removed.

As for whether other polyps need to be removed, it depends on the doctor's diagnostic ability and on-the-spot judgment. In some cases, when some non-neoplastic polyps look like neoplastic polyps under endoscopy, for the sake of safety, doctors will first remove the polyps and wait for pathological tests to be released before making a final diagnosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We strongly recommend that everyone have regular colon examinations, especially those over 50 years old should have a<a href=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/colonoscopy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Colonoscopy<\/a>once a year. If a polyp is found during the examination, be sure to follow the doctor's advice and have it removed to prevent the occurrence of colorectal cancer.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u761c\u8089\u9019\u500b\u540d\u7a31\u6cdb\u6307\u4eba\u9ad4\u9ad4\u8868\u6216\u9ad4\u5167\u51f8\u8d77\u7684\u75c5\u7076\uff0c\u5728\u76ae\u819a\u4e0a\u53ef\u80fd\u6709\uff0c\u5728\u80c3\u3001\u81bd\u56ca\u3001\u5b50\u5bae\u88e1\u4e5f\u53ef\u80fd\u51fa\u73fe\u3002\u56e0\u6b64\uff0c\u53ea\u8981\u5728\u5927\u8178\u5167\u767c\u73fe [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":2672,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2665","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-health_info"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2665"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2665\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4483,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2665\/revisions\/4483"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2672"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
