The Cecum is the first portion of the large bowel and is joined to the small bowel. A polyp in the Cecum would have to be removed surgically, as polyps can become cancerous.

A cecal polyp is basically a growth at the top of the large intestine. Most of the time, these are benign but they can transform and become cancerous.
