Video Tip: Diagnosing Lymphoid Hyperplasia of the Colon | October 2022-Diagnosing Lymphoid Hyperplasia of the Colon

Video Transcription

This ASG video tip is brought to you by an educational grant from Braintree, a part of Cibela Pharmaceuticals, makers of SUTAB.  This video was recorded from a 32-year-old man undergoing colonoscopy because of a strong  family history of colorectal cancer, and we're examining these areas now in white light using near focus and now in narrow band imaging.  The correct diagnosis is lymphoid hyperplasia of the colon. The keys to recognition are the uniform size and spacing of the little nodules and the clear centers.  You can see the clear centers either with white light or in narrow band imaging, perhaps even a little bit more clearly.  The pits around the clear centers are normal in size and shape. When it's extensive like this, it's more common, at least seen in young people, but you can  see isolated enlarged lymphoid follicles with these features at any age.
