On the basis of the endoscopic appearance, 71 rectal polyps were assessed as adenomata or non-neoplastic polyps, after which the endoscopic diagnosis was compared with the results of histological examination. The diagnosis based on macroscopic examination of the polyps proved correct in only 62% of the cases. It is concluded that the diagnosis of adenoma cannot be established solely on the proctoscopic appearance of a polyp and, as adenomata are premalignant, removal of all polyps found at proctoscopy is recommended.
