Complete Removal of Neoplastic Large Colorectal Polyps: a Prospective Randomized Comparison of Endoscopic Mucosal Resection or Conventional Polypectomy

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Colorectal Polyps
Registration Number
NCT01950117
Lead Sponsor
Showa Inan General Hospital
Brief Summary

Recently, it was reported that the incomplete resection rate of neoplastic large polyps after conventional polypectomy was markedly high in clinical practice. The incomplete resection rate of neoplastic large polyps after endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is not known.

The aim of this study is to compare the incomplete resection rate of neoplastic large polyps after EMR or conventional polypectomy. The EMR technique is preferable to conventional polypectomy for the complete resection of the large polyps (\>15 mm in diameter)
