Abstract: A 60-year-old man with a history of adenomatous colon polyps presented to our institution for surveillance colonoscopy. Initial colonoscopy revealed a carpet-like, 40-mm, laterally spreading tumor granular type lesion in the sigmoid colon on high-definition white-light endoscopy (Fig. 1A). Further examination of the lesion via image-enhanced endoscopy with blue light imaging and chromoendoscopy with indigo carmine revealed a Japan NBI Expert Team Type 2A lesion and Kudo type IV pit pattern, respectively (Fig. 1B and C).
