This is contrary to study conducted by Jose Tony, [9] in which high-grade dysplasia was seen in 47% of sessile polyps and 6% of pedunculated polyps. Sessile polyp has increased chance of high-grade dysplasia and malignancy, because the pathway of invasion of neoplastic cells from the surface of polyp into the submucosal layer is short.
