| Abstract (English): | Introduction: Any elevation above the normal plane of the colonic mucosa is considered a polypoid projection. As age increases, polyps are more likely to be found; in addition, polyps larger than 1 cm of diameter may potentially lead to a malignant neoplasm. Objective: To establish the frequency, size, location and age groups of colonic polyp lesions in patients who underwent colonoscopy at Hospital Departamental in Villavicencio during 2009-2014. Materials and methods: The results of 411 diagnostic colonoscopies were analyzed. Data collection and statistical description was done using SPPSS 2011 software. Results: 43 (11%) polyps were smaller than 1cm; 16 (4%) were between 1cm and 2cm long; no polyps larger than 2cm were found, and the remaining results did not show any abnormality. Polyps were found in all segments of the colon in the 41-50 age group, but the highest percentage (11%) was observed in the 71-80 age group. 68.7% of polyps larger than 1cm and 67% smaller than 1cm were found in the left colon. Conclusion: In population groups under 40 years of age, the incidence of polyps is low in the left colon and very low in the right colon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | Introducción: Cualquier levantamiento por encima del plano normal de la mucosa colónica es considerada proyección polipoidea. A mayor edad es más probable encontrar pólipos; además, los >1 cm de diámetro tienen mayor potencial de desarrollar neoplasia maligna. Objetivo: Establecer la frecuencia de lesiones polipósicas del colon, su tamaño, su localización y los grupos de edades donde están presentes en pacientes a quienes se les realizó colonoscopia en el Hospital Departamental de Villavicencio en el periodo 2009-2014. Materiales y métodos: Se analizaron los resultados de 411 colonoscopias diagnósticas. La recolección de datos y descripción estadística se hizo con el software SPPSS 2011. Resultados: Del total de la muestra, 43 (10.46%) pólipos fueron ≤1cm de diámetro, 16 (4% 3.89%) estuvieron entre 1cm y 2cm, no se encontraron pólipos >2cm y en el resto de resultados no se hallaron estas anomalías. En el grupo de edad de 41 a 50 años se presentaron pólipos en todos los segmentos del colon, pero el de mayor porcentaje (11%) fue el de 71 a 80 años. En el colon izquierdo se presentó el 69% de los pólipos >1cm y el 67% de los <1cm. Conclusión: En grupos de poblaciones <40 años de edad, los hallazgos de pólipos son bajos en colon izquierdo y muy bajos en colon derecho. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
