A non-malignant sigmoid polyp is a noncancerous but abnormal cell that is present in the sigmoid colon (near rectum). Polyps are abnormal cells in the colon and some of them have the tendency to turn in to cancer with the passage of time. It is highly recommended to remove the non-malignant polyps.
