Conditions

Registration Number
NCT05825664
Lead Sponsor
University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City
Brief Summary

A prospective, randomized, controlled study to compare the efficacy and safety of underwater endoscopic mucosal resection and conventional endoscopic mucosal resection in removal of non-pedunculated colorectal polyps

Detailed Description

* Patients are undergone colonoscopy at the Endoscopy department of Ho Chi Minh City University Medical Center.

* Randomize patients with non-pedunculated polyp of 10mm or larger in size into 2 interventional groups based on Random function of Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 20.0, including (1) Group 1: Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) and (2) Group 2: Conventional endoscopic mucosal resection (CEMR).

* The time of local recurrence assessment depends on the histopathology of polyps. Polyps with low grade dysplasia are followed up at 6 months, while polyps with high grade dysplasia are followed at 3 months.

* Collecting variables which consist of primary and secodary outcomes.
