Tubular adenoma is denominated as a neoplastic polyp associated with low grade epithelial dysplasia. Preponderantly emerging within colon, tubular adenoma may configure as a precursor to invasive adenocarcinoma of colorectal region. Singular tubular adenoma is characteristically associated with an estimated < 25% villous component. Tumefaction may be incidentally discerned upon colonoscopy [1,2]. Enhanced consumption of fruits, dietary fibre or folate decimates proportionate metamorphosis of tubular adenoma or possible emergence of conventional colorectal adenoma [1,2]. Tubular adenoma is commonly encountered in individuals >50 years wherein disease incidence is enhanced in elderly individuals. A male predominance is observed. Generally, lesions are common within left colon comprising of left half of transverse colon, splenic flexure, descending colon and sigmoid colon along with rectum [1,2]. Tubular adenoma exhibits a distinctive spectrum of metamorphosis from adenoma to carcinoma comprised of genetic mutations within KRAS, TP53 and APC genes besides β-catenin. Genetic mutations of KRAS appear preponderant in tubular adenomas [1,2].
