Resumo

This article discusses the proper handling of the malignant colon polyp, that is, polypoid lesions that appear endoscopically to represent adenomas and histologically reveal an invasive carcinoma component, from the time of endoscopy to the pathologic diagnosis. Prognostically important pathologic features and a paradigm to guide treatment decisions are presented.
