The mechanisms that might cause these polyps are discussed. The mechanisms that might cause these polyps are discussed. The presence of adenomatous tissue in one of the patients may be a step of the polyp cancer sequence at the level of ureteral implantation in the colon. The authors make a plea for a call-up and close follow-up of all patients who have a ureterosigmoidostomy.
