Localized giant pseudopolyposis is an interesting but unuusal manifestation of both ulcerative colitis and Crohn``s disease. It is not regarded as being premalignant, but it may mimic villous adenoma or adenocarcinoma by radiographic and endoscopic picture. and also, it may precipitate obstrucrion by stricture formation or give rise to major hemorrhage.
