1 Filiform polyposis associated with sigmoid diverticulitis in a patient without inflammatory bowel disease  Hyun-Soo Kim, Kil Yeon Lee, Youn Wha Kim  Journal of Crohn's and Colitis  Volume 4, Issue 6, Pages (December 2010) DOI: /j.crohns Copyright © 2010 European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 (A) Distal to the diverticular orifice (arrow), numerous filiform polyps involving an 8-cm segment of the sigmoid colon are noted. (B) The polyps consist of submucosal fibrovascular cores lined with normal mucosa (hematoxylin and eosin staining, ×12.5). (C) No epithelial dysplasia is identified, and chronic inflammatory cells in the lamina propria are normal in number to minimally increased (hematoxylin and eosin staining, ×40). (D) The specimen obtained at colostomy take-down also shows filiform polyps that involve a 5-cm segment of the distal descending colon.
