Ileal inflammatory fibroid polyp causing chronic ileocolic intussusception and mimicking cecal carcinoma.

abstract：:It is well established that colorectal cancer develops from a series of precursor epithelial polyps, including tubular adenomas, villous/tubulovillous adenomas (VA/TVA), sessile serrated adenomas (SSA) and traditional serrated adenomas (TSA). Of these, TSAs are least common and account for only 5% of all serrated poly...
