Barium Report: several sessile polypoid lesions

Barium Report: several sessile polypoid lesions

I cannot speculate on what the lesion is without seeing the study.  

Normally, a colonoscopy would be required to definitively diagnose the lesion.  This obviously can't be done in your case.  

Another option would be a virtual colonoscopy to visualize the lesion.  If it is a polyp, and a colonoscopy cannot be performed, surgery can be considered to remove and biopsy the lesion.

These options can be discussed with your personal physician - preferably at a major academic medical center.  

Followup with your personal physician is essential.
