Colon polyps are tumor-like lesions that can be pedunculated or sessile. They are formed by the overgrowth of the colonic mucosa. Colon polyps are mostly benign, but there are some cases where polyps turn malignant and have the potential to progress to colon cancer or colorectal cancer.

A polyp is a protrusion on the surface of the colon's epithelial lining. Colon polyps can be pedunculated or have broad legs. Histologically, colonic polyps can arise from either the epithelial layer (adenoma, hyperplastic polyp) or the stromal layer (hamartoma).

Familial colon polyps are classified as a rare genetic disease in clinical practice. This inherited type of polyp causes colon polyps, affects several organ functions in the body and needs to be treated as soon as possible to prevent them from developing into cancer.
