RESUMO
After six years experience in the anatomopathological study and having checked 33.452 histological cases 772 corresponded to colon tumoral pathology. It was then decided to proceed with the epidemiological analysis of the polyps, it's anatomical distribution according to sex and age, it's histolopathological characteristics and the possible relationship with malignant transformation. We found a clear predominance mainly of adenomatosic neoplasic polyps, followed by hyperplasic polyps. 65% of the patients were male and more than half of the cases were between the ages of 50 and 70. Coincitentally, 86% of the atypical polyps were found within this age group.

During a period of six years, 33.452 histopathological studies were reviewed among which were found 285 cases with malignant neoplasm of the colon. 69% of the patients were between fifty and sixty years of age. The diagnosis of colonic adenocarcinoma was positive in 90.17% of the cases. 58.9% of the tumors were localized in the rectum and sigmoid. The remaining 41.06% of the tumors were not subject to rectosigmoidoscopy. The epidemiological analysis was made. Most of the patients were found with locally advanced cancer with a predominance of poor differentiated tumours, which represents a complex challenge to the surgeon.
