  • Title: Polypoid lesions associated with diverticular disease of the sigmoid colon.
    Author: Franzin G, Fratton A, Manfrini C.
    Journal: Gastrointest Endosc; 1985 Jun; 31(3):196-9. PubMed ID: 4007438.
    Abstract:
    Colonscopy performed in five patients because of narrowing of the sigmoid colon with intramural diverticula revealed several bright red, slightly elevated patches. In three patients, some bright red polypoid structures 1 cm in size and hemispherical in shape were also present. On light microscopy the polyps showed the features of transitional mucosa but revealed a different pattern of mucus secretion.
