Villous Adenoma of the Colon
Colon Adenoma Villous

Presentation

A case of severe fluid and electrolyte depletion resulting from a massive villous adenoma of the rectosigmoid colon is presented. The syndrome is discussed, and the often insidious presentation and life-threatening aspects are emphasized. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Summary A case of severe fluid and electrolyte depletion resulting from a massive villous adenoma of the rectosigmoid colon is presented. The syndrome is discussed, and the often insidious presentation and life-threatening aspects are emphasized. [link.springer.com]

A large morphologically benign lymphoid aggregate is present. No submucosal invasion is identified. [librepathology.org]

Gastrointestinal

  • Diarrhea

    diarrhea, up to 8 times per day. [laendo.net]

    Furthermore, the etiology of the diarrhea is often difficult to establish by the usual technics. [nejm.org]

    When they do occur, however, they may include abnormal bleeding, cramps, abdominal pain, constipation, or diarrhea. [microscopyu.com]

    pain, rectal bleeding, or melena • Lesion closer to rectum: More likely to have diarrhea, electrolyte loss (hypokalemia and hyponatremia) TERMINOLOGY Synonyms Definitions • Adenomatous polyp that contains predominantly villous (“shaggy” surface) elements [radiologykey.com]

    These can also lead to secretory diarrhea with large volume liquid stools with few formed elements. They are commonly described as secreting large amounts of mucus, resulting in hypokalaemia in patients. [en.wikipedia.org]

  • Rectal Mass

    Pallor due to occult bleeding Abdominal tenderness Bright red blood on digital rectal examination Rectal mass on digital rectal examination Laboratory Findings Laboratory findings associated with villous adenoma are: Positive fecal occult blood test Hypokalemia [wikidoc.org]

    Rectal bleeding is usually intermittent, with a small amount of dark blood mixed with the stool. A palpable mass in the left side of the abdomen. [surgwiki.com]

Colonoscopy

    Adenomatous tubulo-villous polyp, pedunculated (colon). [pathologyatlas.ro]

    Not all polyps will turn into cancer, and it may take many years for a polyp to become cancerous. [uofmhealth.org]

    A polyp is a lump projecting above the surface of the intestinal lining. The term is no more specific than that and therefore must be preceded by another term identifying the type of polyp, such as adenomatous polyp or hyperplastic polyp. [pezimclinic.com]

Treatment

[…] commonly in rectum or rectosigmoid Less frequent than tubular adenoma ( eMedicine ) May invade directly into colon wall since no stalk is present to serve as buffer zone Higher risk of malignancy than tubular adenoma; 40% risk if sessile and > 4 cm Treatment [pathologyoutlines.com]

Treatment is required only for uncontrollable bleeding or intussusception. Inflammatory polyps and pseudopolyps occur in chronic ulcerative colitis and in Crohn disease of the colon. [merckmanuals.com]

Colonoscopy ( confirmatory test ) References: [1] Treatment Treatment depends on the etiology and nature of the polyp or polyps. References: [1] [2] [amboss.com]

It is currently believed that hyperplastic polyps have no potential to become cancers and hence require no treatment nor follow-up. [pezimclinic.com]

All 4 are effective in catching cancers in the early stages, when treatment is most beneficial. [stlukes-stl.com]

Prognosis

Epidemiology Occurs in one in 10,000–30,000 live births < 1% of colorectal cancers in the U.S. are due to FAP Both sexes equally affected Polyposis typically develops within the third decade of life Clinical features Diagnosis Treatment Prognosis : The [amboss.com]

[15] Prognosis becomes poor with malignant transformation of the lesion. [wikidoc.org]

Villous adenomas have a worse prognosis and warrant closer follow-up. One needs only to remember the criteria for tubular adenomas and villous adenomas, as tubulovillous adenomas are what is left over. [librepathology.org]

Based on the fact that the ascending colon resection showed cancer at regional stage (a positive lymph node), that tumor has a worse prognosis and should be sequence 01. Turn to the colon histology coding rules in your preferred format. [training.seer.cancer.gov]

Etiology

Colonoscopy ( confirmatory test ) References: [1] Treatment Treatment depends on the etiology and nature of the polyp or polyps. References: [1] [2] [amboss.com]
