Submucosal injection polypectomy (SIP) is a preferred technique for removing flat colonic polyps. This method allows for safe and effective polyp removal throughout the colon.
Area of Science:
- Gastroenterology
- Endoscopic Surgery
Background:
- Flat colonic polyps present a challenge for endoscopic removal.
- Existing techniques like endoscopic mucosal resection may require specialized equipment.
Purpose of the Study:
- To introduce and detail the submucosal injection polypectomy (SIP) technique.
- To advocate for SIP as a superior method for flat colonic polyp removal.
Main Methods:
- Detailed description of the submucosal injection polypectomy (SIP) procedure.
- Application of SIP for flat polyp removal in various colonic locations.
Main Results:
- SIP enables safe and effective removal of most flat colonic polyps.
- The technique is adaptable to polyps throughout the colon.
Conclusions:
- Submucosal injection polypectomy (SIP) is an accurate and preferred term for this technique.
- SIP is within the skill set of most colonoscopists and facilitates safe polyp removal.
