Extremely Rare Isolated Small-Intestinal Polyp Diagnosed by Double-Balloon Endoscopy in an Asymptomatic Adult Patient

Clin Case Rep. 2025 Mar 10;13(3):e70255. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.70255. eCollection 2025 Mar.

Abstract

We present the first reported case of an isolated small-bowel intestinal juvenile polyp in an adult. This case is particularly noteworthy as it was asymptomatic, detected via computed tomography, localized by capsule endoscopy, and successfully resected via double-balloon endoscopy before the development of acute symptoms.
