Dear [Patient's Name],

I hope you're doing well after your recent procedure. I wanted to share the results of your colonoscopy with you. During the examination, we found and removed a small polyp known as a tubular adenoma.

What This Means:

• Tubular Adenoma Explained: A tubular adenoma is a common type of colon polyp. These are generally benign (non-cancerous), but they are considered precancerous because they have the potential to develop into colorectal cancer over time if left untreated.

• Good News: The polyp was removed completely during your colonoscopy, which reduces any immediate risk.

Next Steps:

• Follow-Up Colonoscopy: Because tubular adenomas can increase the risk of developing additional polyps in the future, it's important to monitor your colon health. I recommend scheduling a follow-up colonoscopy in [insert recommended time frame, e.g., 3 to 5 years].

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns about these findings or the recommended follow-up. We're here to support you in maintaining your health.

Warm regards,
