  • Title: Giant hyperplastic polyp of the colon simulating adenocarcinoma.
    Author: Whittle TS, Varner W, Brown FM.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1978 Jan; 69(1):105-7. PubMed ID: 645684.
    Abstract:
    Hyperplastic polyps of the colon have been previously reported as frequent incidental asymptomatic lesions limited to 1 cm. in size. To our knowledge, this is the first recorded case of a hyperplastic polyp of such magnitude as to cause obstructive symptoms and clinically simulate adenocarcinoma of the colon.
