Colonic polyps are abnormal tissue growths that arise on the mucosal surface of the colon. Some of these polyps are benign (hyperplastic polyps) and others carry a risk of becoming cancerous (adenomatous polyps). The development of colonic polyps is influenced by genetic factors, age, lifestyle, and dietary habits. Early detection through routine screening procedures, such as colonoscopy, is vital for identifying and removing polyps before they can progress to colorectal cancer.
