Abstract
RODRIGUEZ-WULLF, Erika; VARGAS, Francisco; CANTON, Carmela and CABALLERO, José. Unusual report of a polipo sesil: deep cystic colitis. Gen [online]. 2017, vol.71, n.2, pp.87-89. ISSN 2477-975X.
Deep cystic colitis is a rare condition characterized by the presence of mucous cysts located in the submucosa of the colon and rectum that can be localized, segmental or diffuse. Deep cystic colitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of polypoid lesions, the diagnosis is histopathological; treatment is controversial and the prognosis is excellent. We describe a patient with a colonoscopy finding of sessile polyp which was resected, reporting biopsy as deep cystic colitis.
