%X Aim: In our study we scanned the polyps detected during the colonoscopic procedures performed in our endoscopy unit. We aimed to compare the polypectomy results with the literature. Material and Method: In Aksaray University Training and Research Hospital Gastroenterology Endoscopy Unit 1806 colonoscopies performed between January 2016 and June 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients¡¯ gender, age and indications for colonoscopy were recorded. In addition, localization, size, number and histopathological features of polyps were recorded. Results: A total of 341 polyps were detected in 224 (12.4%) of 1806 patients who underwent colonoscopy in our study. 95 of the patients were female (42.4%) and the mean age was 59.2 ¡À 11.9, while 195 were male (57.6%) and the mean age of the male was 57.4 ¡À 13.0. The most frequent indication for colonoscopy was constipation (35.7%). 74.3% of polyps were in the left colon. 77.4% of polyps were adenomatosis. Of 224 patients, 60 (26.7%) were in the high-risk group. Our rate of detection of adenocarcinoma was 4.9%. Conclusion: In our study, we found that findings related to polyps detected as a result of endoscopic unit operations were generally consistent with the literature. Unlike previous studies, there was no statistically significant difference between the ages of high and low risk patients
