Abstract

Objective: Colorectal cancers are in third place in terms of incidence and second in terms of mortality. This study aims to type the polyps detected during colonoscopy according to the Paris classification, perform polypectomy with the appropriate technique, classify them as histopathological, determine the presence of dysplasia, and review the risk status of colorectal cancer. Materials and methods: Our study is a retrospective study presented as a one-year review of 124 patients who were found to have colonic polyps due to colonoscopy, who underwent polypectomy with the appropriate technique, and whose histopathological determination was completed. Results: The study was conducted between 2021 and 2022 with a total of 124 cases, 37.9% female and 62.1% male. The mean age of the cases was 58.58±14.40 years.
