Abstract:
Endoscopic resection, including polypectomy, endoscopic mucosal resection, and endoscopic submucosal dissection, is the preferred treatment method of large colorectal polyps. Its safety and efficacy have been shown. Endoscopic removal techniques are important because they provide a resection specimen for precise histopathologic staging to further direct diagnosis, prognosis, and management decisions. Used according to its indications, it provides curative resection and obviates the higher morbidity, mortality, and cost associated with alternative surgical treatment.
