Reply to "polyps in rectal cuff"

Thank you all for your responses.

I am awaiting the biopsy results to see if there was any dysplasia or malignancy of the polyps. I am assuming it will not result in any surgeries right away no matter the result. I have a very severe case of FAP and have been told I will undoubtedly end up with an ileostomy eventually. At this point we are trying to prolong it as long as possible.

I have lots of polyps in my stomach and small intestine as well and have had adenomas removed from my ampulla already. My small intestine has no normal tissue present anymore. It seems everywhere they biopsy, even where no polyp is present , still comes back adenomatous. I have been told the Whipple procedure should also be expected within the next 10 years.

I have a three year old daughter that is already being scoped every 4 months to remove adenomas from her small intestine and has been routinely for the last year and a half. It just seems that our gene mutation is very severe. With all that said we do not dwell in what this disease has in store for us, but rather have faith that no matter what happens it is all in God's hands.
