Abstract
Since 1980, when the first description of hyperplastic polyposis of the colon appeared, 18 cases of hyperplastic polyposis have been reported in the literature. Only two of them bore colonic cancer. Here we add two cases of hyperplastic polyposis accompanying rectal carcinoma following cancer resection, in which residual hyperplastic polyps disappeared after resection.
