Question 10

what is the difference between a benign colon polyp and an adenomatous colon polyp?

Accepted Answer

Sort of the same: An adenomatous polyp is not cancer so by definition is "benign" although it harbors the potential of becoming malignant with time. Not all benign polyps are adenomatous.  Some are just plain polyps with little or no malignant potential.  So, adenomatous polyps are benign but not all benign polyps are adenomatous.
