Sessile polyps in the stomach are typically caused by abnormal growth of the gastric mucosa, which can result from factors such as chronic inflammation, infection (like H. pylori), or genetic predispositions. They may also arise from conditions like familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or sporadic mutations. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as diet and smoking can contribute to their development. Regular monitoring is essential, as some sessile polyps may have the potential to become cancerous.
What else can I help you with?
Is a sessile polyp common?
Yes, sessile polyps are common and typically found in the colon. Unlike pedunculated polyps, which are attached to the intestinal wall by a stalk, sessile polyps have a flat base, making them more challenging to detect during screenings. While many sessile polyps are benign, some can be precursors to colorectal cancer, so regular screening and monitoring are important.
Are sessile colon polyps cancer?
Sessile colon polyps are not inherently cancerous, but they can be precursors to colorectal cancer. These polyps are flat and attached directly to the colon wall, and certain types, like sessile serrated adenomas, have a higher risk of becoming cancerous over time. Regular screening and removal of polyps are important for preventing cancer development.
How do polyps swim?
polyps are sessile, therefore they do not move
Which term includes sessile and pedunculated types of growths?
The term is "polyp". Polyps can be classified as either sessile (without a stalk) or pedunculated (with a stalk) growths.
What are the different types of rectal polyps?
Rectal polyps can be classified into several types, primarily including adenomatous polyps, hyperplastic polyps, and sessile serrated adenomas. Adenomatous polyps are precancerous and can develop into colorectal cancer if left untreated. Hyperplastic polyps are generally benign and have a low risk of cancer, while sessile serrated adenomas have a higher potential for malignancy and may require closer monitoring. Other less common types include inflammatory polyps and juvenile polyps, which are typically found in children and also have a low risk of cancer.
Two main forms of life for the cnidarians?
Polyps, which are Sessile or stationary, and Medusa which move.
Are cnidaria symmetrical?
Cnidaria have two basic body forms: swimming Medusae and sessile Polyps, and they are both radially symmetrical.
Are soft polyps and hard polyps the same?
Soft polyps and hard polyps are not the same. Soft polyps, also known as pedunculated polyps, have a stalk and typically have a softer consistency. Hard polyps, also known as sessile polyps, do not have a stalk and are firmly attached to the tissue. Both types of polyps can be precancerous or cancerous and require medical evaluation and possibly removal.
What percentage of stomach polyps are cancer?
10%

What illness causes white polyps in the?
