A granulation polyp is a small piece of tissue that protrudes from the walls of internal organs (for example, the intestines). It can be caused by various factors and cause discomfort and problems when it occurs. In this article we will look in more detail at what a granulation polyp is, its causes, symptoms and treatment.
Granulation polyps are benign formations and generally have a smooth and dense surface. They can appear inside the stomach, colon, and also in the lungs.
The causes of granulation polyps are infectious intestinal diseases, poor diet, inflammatory processes in body tissues, genetic predisposition and other factors. Polyps are the result of tissue changes that do not resolve after the damage has healed. Because of this, they appear on the walls of organs and can be eliminated through surgical removal.
