An ileocecal polyp is a growth that occurs in the ileocecal region, which is where the small intestine (ileum) meets the large intestine (cecum). These polyps can be benign or precursors to cancer, and they may vary in size and number. While often asymptomatic, they can sometimes cause abdominal pain, bleeding, or obstruction. Regular monitoring and removal may be recommended, especially if there is a concern for malignancy.
