Evaluation of gastrointestinal polyps according to their size, localization and histopathologic types

Öz

Background and Aims: We aimed to document upper and lower gastrointestinal system polyps in our center according to their types. Materials and Methods:271 gastrointestinal polyps that were histopathologically diagnosed at Çankırı State Hospital during the period 2011-2012 were included in the study. Polyps were noted according to their localization and histopathologic types.Results:69.4% of the patients were males and 30.6% were females, and their mean age was 61.7 years. The mean diameter of the polyps was 8 mm. 233 of the polyps were located in the colon and the remainder in the stomach. Colonic polyps were most commonly seen in the rectum (36.2%), while gastric polyps were most commonly seen in the antrum (6.3%). Colonic polyps were most common in males, while gastric polyps were most common in females. Conclusions:In this study, in which we evaluated upper and lower gastrointestinal polyps separately, our results were found to be similar to those reported in the literature

Amaç:Çalışmadaki amacımız merkezimizde tanı alan üst ve alt gastrointestinal sisteme ait polipektomi materyallerinin histopatolojik tipleri ile birlikte dökümante edilmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem:Çalışmada Çankırı Devlet Hastanesi Patoloji Laboratuvarında 2011- 2012 yılları arasında histopatolojik tanı verilen 271 adet gastrointestinal polip olgusu retrospektif olarak incelendi. Yerleşim özellikleri ve histopatolojik tiplerine göre polipler kaydedildi. Bulgular: Hastaların %69,4'ü erkek, %30,6'sı kadındı. Yaş dağılımı 2-91 yıl arasında değişmekte olup, yaş ortalaması 61,7 yıl, ortalama boyut 8 mm olarak saptandı. Gastrointestinal sistem polipleri yerleşim bölgeleri açısından değerlendirildiğinde 271 olgunun 233'ü kolon, 38'i mide yerleşimliydi. Kolon yerleşimli poliplerin büyük kısmının rektumda (%36,2), mide yerleşimli poliplerin ise büyük kısmının antrumda (%6,3) oldukları saptandı. Gastrointestinal sistem poliplerinde histopatolojik tipler açısından en büyük hasta grubunu 161 (%59,4) olgu ile tübüler adenom oluştururken, bunu 63 (%23,2) olgu ile hiperplastik polipler takip etmekteydi. Kolondaki polipler erkeklerde daha sık görülürken, mide lokalizasyonlu polipler kadınlarda daha sık saptandı. Tartışma:Üst ve alt gastrointestinal sisteme ait polipleri ayrı ayrı değerlendirdiğimiz çalışmamızda genel olarak tüm sonuçlarımızın literatür ile uyumluluk halinde olduğu görüldü
