Colon Polyps/Cancer, Peds GI Flashcards
inflammatory polyp
benign
hamartoma
benign
adenoma
neoplastic
hyperplastic polyp
benign, non-neoplastic
sessile serrated adenoma/polyp
neoplastic
traditional serrated adenoma
neoplastic
hamartomatous polyp examples
juvenile polyps (AD, mostly rectum)
peutz-jeghers syndrome (AD, colon/SI/Stomach)
oral and lip pigmentation
peutz-jeghers syndrome
more villous component –> greater
cancer risk
serrated polyps, which locations are usually non-neoplastic?
rectum and colon
usu hyperplastic
serrated polyps, which locations are usually neoplastic?
proximal to sigmoid, especially R colon (cecum, as colon, transverse colon)
(usu sessile serrated)
HNPCC
aka Lynch syndrome
AD
small #polyps, early age
mut in DNA repair genes –> microsat instability
Amsterdam II criteria
HNPCC
3+ relatives w/ HNPCC cancer
2+ generations w/ cancer
1+ cancers dx <50
familial adenomatous polyposis sundrome (FAP)
AD
APC mut
100% progression to CA by age 30
attenuated FAP syndrome
~30 polyps, most proximal
50% lifetime risk for CA
Gardener syndrome
FAP w/ osteomas, epidermal cysts, fibromatosis (desmoid tumors)
FAP tx
prophylactic colectomy
chromosomal instability
(adenoma-carcinoma sequence)
location
histo type
L colon, rectum, sigmoid, descending
- tubular adenomas, tubulovillous, villous
- sessile or pedunculated,
