Abstract

A retrospective descriptive and observational study was made for the 503 patients who were treated with endoscopies of the lower gastrointestinal tract in the “Octavio de la Conception y de la Pedraja, Pediatric Hospital in Holguin province, the objective was to  describe the epidemiological characteristics of rectal polyps in pediatric patients. To select the samples the inclusion and exclusion criteria were taken into account, with 234 patients with rectal polyps. The variables used were the prevalence of rectal polyps, clinical diagnostic impression of endoscopy, histological diagnosis and the age group. The data were gathered from a model made by the authors. It was concluded that 234 patients had rectal polyps. The presumptive diagnosis which motivated the prescription of endoscopy was rectorrhagia and rectal polyps also; the histopathology diagnosis was conformed by the juvenile polyp group. The most affected group was about 2 to 6 years old, the size of polyps was 0.5 to 0.9 cm and the sesils showed a greater representation.
