Differential diagnosis

The difference between anal papillary hypertrophy and rectal polyps:

The part connecting the anal canal and the rectal column has a triangular papillary bulge called an anal papilla. The main physiological function of the rectal anal canal is defecation. Rectal polyps generally refer to the bulging lesions protruding from the surface of the rectal mucosa to the intestinal lumen. Pathologically, the nature is different, there are benign tumors, and there are inflammatory changes. It is generally believed that colorectal cancer is derived from polyps, so polyps are precancerous. Early removal of polyps can reduce the incidence of cancer.
