Overall Comment
This case highlights the value of TXI and NBI-TXI for the detection and characterization of a diminutive colorectal adenoma. On white-light imaging, the lesion showed only subtle loss of vascular transparency and faint erythema. TXI enhanced these changes and improved lesion recognition. NBI identified the lesion as a brownish area, and NBI-TXI further increased its visibility. Magnifying observation demonstrated a regular vascular pattern and a Kudo type IIIL pit pattern, findings consistent with JNET Type 2A adenoma. Histopathology confirmed a tubular adenoma with moderate atypia.
