Hi, Just wanted toss in my two cents. My daughter had a lump in her side and so she was sent to a GI doc who did a colonoscopy and found that my 24 year old daughter had atypical precancerous polyps but he couldn't determine what the lump was and thought she had thickening of the cecum,but didn't know why she had the polyps at such a young age. Many specialists and much pain later, we have found out that she has a fallen kidney on the right side. We believe that the reason the polyps are connected to the nephroptosis is because the kidney when it has fallen (or in my daughters case anyway) was sitting on the Colon and caused chronic constipation and a blockage of blood flow.
