Colonic Lipoma Removed by Endoscopic Polypectomy:—A Report of Three Cases—

We report on three cases of colonic lipoma removed by endoscopic polypectomy. Patient 1 was a 46‐year‐old female, Patient 2 a 63‐year‐old male and Patient 3 a 76‐year‐old female, with their afflicted regions being the; ascending colon, ascending colon and transverse colon, respectively. All the three lipomas were pedunculated and smooth on the surface, with the subrnucosal figure presenting yellowish or reddish in color. In Patient 1 and Patient 2, both tumors were totally removed, and in Patient 3, a “half resection” of the polyp was performed by endoscopic polypectomy. The resected specimens were 1.5 cm, 2.6 cm and 1.0 cm, respectively, in size at their maximum diameter and soft tumors with uniformly yellow cut‐surfaces. All were histopathologically diagnosed as being “lipoma”. Because the colonic lipoma is benign, an endoscopic polypectomy should be tried as the treatment of choice in selected patients.
