The management of tubular adenoma primarily involves endoscopic resection and surgical resection, but the appropriate treatment modality should be selected based on the specific location and size of the tumor. After tubular adenoma is discovered on colonoscopy, doctors typically formulate a personalized treatment plan according to factors such as the size, morphology, and location of the lesion.

First, for tubular adenomas with a diameter less than 2 cm, endoscopic resection is usually the chosen method. Endoscopic resection is a relatively minimally invasive treatment. It involves completely removing the lesion via colonoscopy, then extracting the pathological tissue for pathological examination to confirm the possibility of malignant transformation.

Next, for tubular adenomas with a diameter larger than 2 cm or those that cannot be removed endoscopically, surgical resection may be necessary. Surgical resection is a relatively traditional treatment approach, typically requiring general anesthesia and carrying relatively higher surgical risks, but it can completely remove the tumor, reducing the likelihood of recurrence.

Regardless of which treatment method is chosen, patients should follow their doctor’s guidance and undergo regular follow-up examinations to monitor changes in the tumor and promptly detect and manage any potential complications.
