The 32 patients who suffered from rectal polyps and 49 healthy adults were quantified the circulate protein P53 and CEA which showed that the circular protein P53 increased in the elderly healthy persons compared with younger persons. In rectal polyp’s patients, the circular P53 noticeable changes than control group. The concentration of the P53 protein is more related to the polyp diameter. The concentration of the circular CEA related less to the age, the lesion of the polyp and to the early rectal cancer.

A study on 29 patients was laparoscopic diagnosed as gallbladder polyp has shown that gallbladder monopolyp (27.6%) and gallbladder multipolyps (72.4%). Polyps diameter of 5 mm, 5-10 mm and more than 10 mm were 55.2%, 34.5% and 10.3%, respectively. Polyps in the gallbladder cervix, gallbladder stem and gallbladder basal were 31%, 55.2% and 13.8%. Polyps type of increased sound (58.6%), type less sound (34.5%) and reduced sound (6.9%). The pedicular polyp (41.4%) and nonpedicular polyp (58.6%).

30 patients diagnosed as gallbladder polyps by laparoscopic ultrasound of which 12 patients received operations have shown that the male/female was 1/1; the disease occurred most frequently in ages of 40-50. The gallbladder multipolyps occurred more frequently than gallbladder polyp and rate of pedicular polyps was higher than nonpedicular polyp. 36.8% of patients accompanying with other diseases such as gallbladder stone, cancer, hepatic angioma. The laparoscopic ultrasound was high precise technique for diagnosis of gallbladder polyp (11/12).

A retrospective study on 20 operated patients with gallbladder polyp and a prospective study on 2 patients with gallbladder polyp of which 10 patient operated were carried out. Results were compared with results of diagnostic ultrasound and histological tests in 30 operated patients. They have shown that the ultrasound sensitivity was 73.3%, 50% of polyps were cholesterol polyps. 9/11 cholesterol polyps were small, with diameter less than 5 mm.

Cap polyposis is a rare intestinal disease that is characterized by the presence of inflammatory polyps consisting of elongated, tortuous and distended crypts that are covered by a 'cap' of granulation tissue. The pathogenesis and proper treatment of cap polyposis are still unclear. We experienced a case of cap polyposis, that was treated successfully by conservative management without the need for a pharmacotherapy or resection.

Patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome often suffer from complications of polyps, such as intussusception, bowel obstruction, and bleeding. Another major problem of these patients is malignancy through the hamartoma-adenoma-carcinoma sequence. If the complications and the cancer risk of small intestinal polyps are to be reduced, early detection of these polyps and a polypectomy are important. Traditionally, a small bowel series, small bowel enteroclysis, and conventional endoscopy have been used for the proper evaluation, and management of polyps. Recently, several reports showed the advantages of enteroscopy and intraoperative endoscopy for achieving a more complete polypectomy of the small intestine. However, CT enteroclysis, which has been introduced as a reliable, less invasive, and tolerable diagnostic tool for small intestinal disease, may be useful for the evaluation of patients with gastrointestinal polyposis. We report the case of a patient with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome who had small-bowel polyposis and a rectal adenocarcinoma and who underwent preoperative CT enteroclysis and intraoperative endoscopy.

Acolonic polyp is a circumscribed mass of tissue that projects above the surface of the intestinal mucosa, which may be classified as either pedunculated or sessile, depending on whether or not it contains a discrete stalk, and according to the size and type. It has been believed that colorectal cancer evolves from a precursor lesion, the adenomatous polyp. The introduction of colonoscopy in the early 1970s, followed by the demonstration of the feasibility of colonoscopic polypectomy, provided the technology for the application of this concept to clinical practice. Colorectal cancer can be prevented through examination of the entire colon and identification of a polyp to be resected. According to the National Polyp Study in the USA, the incidence of colorectal cancer is reduced by 76~90% following colonoscopic polypectomy. Colonoscopy and polypectomy, when performed by adequately trained physicians, is a safe and effective procedure that can decrease deaths resulting from colorectal cancer.
