Abstract

Intestinal metaplasia of the urinary bladder can occur within the surface urothelium due to chronic irritation in repaired exstrophic urinary bladder. Colonic villous adenomas and tubulovillous adenomas with high-grade dysplasia and associated adenocarcinoma have been reported in adult patients with a history of augmented exstrophic bladder. To our knowledge, we report the first example of a nonadenomatous serrated hyperplastic colonic polyp in an elderly patient with a history of exstrophic bladder.
