What is the Prognosis for Patients with Colon Polyps?
The prognosis for patients with colon polyps is generally good, especially if the polyps are detected and removed early. Regular follow-up screenings are essential to monitor for new polyps and prevent the progression to colorectal cancer. For individuals with hereditary conditions like FAP or Lynch Syndrome, more frequent monitoring and preventive measures may be necessary to manage their higher risk.
