Villous Adenoma

While most of the right colonic lesions present with features of anaemia, the left colonic lesions show altered bowel habit, blood in stool and intestinal obstruction. [tropicalgastro.com]

Synchronous neoplasms are uncommon and present unique considerations for treatment and prognosis. [mdmag.com]

If patients do present with symptoms, commonly they will endorse a history of blood per rectum. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Case presentation: In this case we describe a female patient suffering from 6 months of secretory diarrhea, presented to our emergency department with severe dehydration, acute renal failure, hyponatremia and hypokalemia After re hydration and electrolyte [oatext.com]

Case Presentation A 64-year-old female presented to the outpatient clinic with a four-month history of painless progressive jaundice of skin and eyes along with loss of appetite and weight loss. [cureus.com]

  • Jaundice

    Though they are mostly asymptomatic, sometimes they may present with the signs and symptoms of jaundice (obstructive jaundice), abdominal pain, melena, hematochezia, fever, malaise or weight loss. [cureus.com]

    Jaundice may be present with villous adenoma of the ampulla. Causes Genetic factors: From the NPS data, relatives of patients with polyps have an increased risk of carcinoma. [odlarmed.com]

    He also reported experiencing no nausea, vomiting, jaundice, shortness of breath, dark urine, fevers, chills, or sweats. Routine laboratory evaluations revealed microcytic anemia and a hemoglobin level of 4.2 g/dL. [mdmag.com]

    CT Abdomen and Pelvis: Hepatomegaly 17cm (Homogenous CT density, no HFLs), Single GB stone (2cm, normal GB wall thickness) and Multiple uterine fibroids Colonoscopy was done and revealed 3 sessile colonic polyps (2 at distal end of Transverse colon, largest [oatext.com]

  • Myalgia

    The patient reported 72 hours of lethargy, myalgia, generalised weakness and cramps, following 3 weeks of watery diarrhoea, with pink-stained mucous discharge. He reported 10 motions per day, and no abdominal pain or vomiting. [mja.com.au]

The primary care giver and nurse practitioner should refer these patients to a gastroenterologist or general surgeon for further workup and removal of the lesion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The broad range of reported recurrence rates for treatment of villous adenoma of the rectum indicates a need for additional data. [jamanetwork.com]

Alternative imaging studies include: CT colonography Video capsule endoscopy Treatment Medical Therapy There is no medical therapy for villous adenoma. Surgical removal of the adenoma is the mainstay of treatment. [wikidoc.org]

This uncommon condition raises prognostic and treatment dilemmas. [mdmag.com]

Aggressive hydro electrolyte rebalancing is often needed, and curative treatment is obtained only with complete removal of the lesion, by endoscopic resection or surgery. [oatext.com]

It is a benign tumor with excellent prognosis, but its progression to adenocarcinoma is not established. Here, we report an additional case of villous adenoma of the urinary bladder. [cancerjournal.net]

This would benefit both the patient’s prognosis and quality of life. [bjuinternational.com]

Increased expression of the tumor suppresser gene, TP53, and also of cellular proliferation markers (proliferating cell nuclear antigen and MIB-1) has been detected in the villous adenoma. 7 TREATMENT AND PROGNOSIS Prognosis is excellent for patients [archivesofpathology.org]
