Guide for use:![]() | CODE 1 Yes To be recorded when colorectal polyps are found in a person's colon. This means there are abnormalities in a person's colon. As most bowel cancers are known to initiate from polyps (Cappell 2005), more tests and potential removal may be necessary. CODE 2 No To be recorded when no colorectal polyps are found in a person's colon. This means there are no abnormalities in a person's colon and the person is unlikely to have bowel cancer. |
