Observational Study of Colon Serrated Polyps
This study is looking at information from people who have had serrated polyps (a type of growth in the colon) removed at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Researchers are reviewing existing medical records and endoscopy procedure reports to understand more about these polyps, including their features, how they are removed, and the long-term outcomes after removal. The goal is to learn more about how these polyps develop, improve removal techniques, and identify areas for better care. This study is not testing a new treatment, but rather collecting and analyzing data that has already been gathered during routine medical care. There are no specific age limits, and both men and women can be included if they have had a serrated polyp.

What this trial measures
- Data Review of Colonoscopic Resection of Serrated Colon Polyps1 day
Descriptive tables presented for demographics, polyp counts, colonoscopy experiences, polyp removals and findings. Proportions presented with 95% confidence intervals. Continuous values such as age and times presented with median, minimum and maximum. Comparisons among patient subgroups made with chi-square tests for categorical data and t-tests or the non-parametric alternative, Wilcoxon tests, to compare continuous measures. Graphics such as box plots, trellis plots, bar graphs, or stacked bar graphs used to describe distributions overall and among subgroups.
