Abstract
We describe an event of sequential change of adenoma-carcinoma in a patient with polyposis of the colon. In which, the interesting arrangement of small adenomatous polyp, larger adenoma and adenocarcinoma from proximal colon to distal colon was presented. Based on the morphologic and pathologic changes from benign adenoma to adenocarcinoma, which were stained by alcian-blue histochemical method, the malignant sequence of adenoma-carcinoma seems to be under a condition of gradual transition of colonic mucosa from the ascending colon and descending colon down to sigmoid and rectum.
