Polyp, Sigmoid Colon, Polypectomy:
- Colonic mucosa with ulceration, acute inflammation and granulation tissue.
- NEGATIVE for dysplasia.
Comment:
This may represent a polyp seen in the context of diverticular disease. Other
considerations include ischemia, idiopathic inflammation and infections.
Clinical correlation is suggested.

The sections show a fragment of colorectal mucosa with focal ulceration, acute inflammation and a well-vascularized stroma with plump stromal cells.  Occasional stromal cells have nuclear hyperchromasia.

====Alternate====
The sections show a fragment of tissue with scant benign epithelium, acute and chronic
inflammation (neutrophils and plasma cells predominantly), abundant blood vessels with
reactive endothelial cells and plump stromal cells. Occasional stromal cells have nuclear hyperchromasia but do not show significant atypia.
