Adenoma types and risk of colorectal cancer:- Does the risk of colorectal cancer depend on the type of adenoma?
Any explanatory notes
(if applicable)
Why this is important:- There is no high quality evidence on the association between risk of colorectal cancer and some adenoma types (sessile, hyperplastic non-adenomatous). Research should be undertaken to determine if the level of risk of colorectal cancer depends on the adenoma type.
