Incidental colorectal polyps in positron emission tomography
A 55-year-old lady from Norway was referred to our department for evaluation of Caecal lesion detected by PET/CT [Figures and ]. She had previously undergone surgery 4 years before presentation for carcinoma cheek. A PET/CT 2 years after the first surgery showed local recurrence and a radical hemimandibulectomy was done. She had no family history of colon, breast or uterine cancer. Colonoscopy showed a 1.5 cm flat polyp in the caecum [] which on narrow band imaging and chromoendoscopy with indigo carmine had pit pattern suggestive of adenomatous polyp []. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of the lesion was done. Histopathology showed tubular adenoma.
