[Endoscopic And Therapeutic Aspects Of The Colo-Rectal Polyps At The Gabriel Toure Hospital And At The "Promenade Des
Introduction:
The term polyp refers to any relief formation on the digestive mucosa.The therapeutic endoscopic polypectomy is an effective method to colorectal polyp resection.
Objective:
The maingoal of this work is to study the endoscopic aspects of colo-rectal polyps and to bring our experience on their treatment with endoscopic polypectomy.
Patients And Method:
Our study was retrospective and descriptive from January 2013 to December 2017 in the endoscopic centers of hepato-gastroenterology department of CHU Gabriel Touré and clinic of "Promenade des angevins". The study concerned in whom polypectomy was performed.
Results:
A total of 49 patients were included in our study. The main age of our patients was 26.2 2±1.7 years and the sex-ratio was 3.9. The sessile polyps were more frequents with 53.1%. The average size of polyps was 8.7±3.7 mm. The rectum localization was more reported (40.8%). All polyps(100%) were resected in monoblock and we used diathermol cove in 57.1% patients and the cold clamp in 42.9%. Histologically, we had 18 cases of hyperplasia (36.7%), 8 cases of tubulous adenoma (16.3%), 2 cases of tubulo-vilous adenoma (4.1%) and 2 cases of juvenil adenoma (4.1%). One patient was died by perforation five days after the polypectomy.
Conclusion:
The frequency of colorectal polyps is not negligible in our context.Endoscopic colorectal polypectomy is effective therapeutic method for resection of colorectal polyps.
