Abstract
We present a previously healthy 63-year-old female with incidental polyps in the colon that were detected during a surveillance endoscopy. Clinical examination and imaging studies did not detect any lymphadenopathy or organomegaly. Histopathologic evaluation of polyps revealed a low-grade follicular lymphoma. We suggest that follicular lymphoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis of polypoid lesions of the colon.
