A 50-year-old male was referred to a Gastroenterology appointment after a screening colonoscopy with a 25mm exophytic lesion, with a depressed central area, on the transverse colon. Histologic examination of the biopsy specimen showed low-grade dysplasia. The patient was submitted to a new colonoscopy and what was seen was a flat lesion with central depression, with no lift-sign (Figure 1a and 1b) and, therefore, endoscopic resection was not performed. New endoscopic biopsies were taken and showed no dysplasia.
