Abnormal growths within the intestine can be either cancerous or noncancerous. Cancerous growths are more prevalent in the large intestine, while occurrences in the small intestine are relatively infrequent. Intestinal lymphomas and carcinoid tumors (which can result in carcinoid syndrome) may occasionally arise. Noncancerous growths encompass colon polyps, as well as adenomas, leiomyomas, lipomas, and angiomas in the small intestine.
