In the process of colonoscopy, if intestinal polyps are found, biopsy, timely treatment and regular review are required.
1. Biopsy
of suspected polyps for biopsy tissue sampling in order to further pathological diagnosis.
2. Timely treatment
Most intestinal polyps can be removed directly under colonoscopy. If surgery is needed, it should be carried out as soon as possible to prevent the disease from continuing to deteriorate.
3. Regular review
Due to the different nature of intestinal polyps, their recurrence and malignant rate are also different. Therefore, regular review should be carried out to observe the changes of polyps and understand the physical condition.
