Core Tip Cap polyposis is a rare inflammatory colorectal disorder characterized by fibrinopurulent-capped polyps. Clinicians frequently misdiagnose it as inflammatory bowel disease. This study retrospectively analyzed seven patients and established a stepwise management algorithm based on lesion distribution, size, and symptoms. Endoscopic or transanal resection achieved sustained symptomatic relief in all treated patients. Protein-losing enteropathy resolved rapidly after definitive surgical intervention.
