GI clinic

You may qualify if:

  • Polyp spanning 2 or more colonic folds
  • Polyp \> 20mm
  • Polyp spanning greater than 50% of the colonic circumference
  • Positive "lift sign" following submucosal injection of saline beneath the polyp
  • Difficult location or position of the polyp, thus preventing assurance of complete endoscopic resection.

You may not qualify if:

  • Polyps with histological evidence of adenocarcinoma
  • Polyps in the rectum (\<15cm from anal verge)
  • Patients with known inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
  • Patients with known familiar adenomatous polyposis (FAP) syndrome
  • Polyps without known histology (i.e. not previously biopsied)
  • Polyps with large ulcerations, or those that demonstrate a "non-lift sign" during submucosal injection at the time of colonoscopy; as these are indicators of adenocarcinoma .
  • Severe cardio-pulmonary disease, or irreversible coagulopathy, preventing abdominal surgery at an acceptable risk.
  • POSSUM predicted mortality score greater than 2%
  • Inability to obtain informed consent
  • Patients under the age of 18
  • Pregnant patients
