NCT03000868

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the efficacy of small colorectal polyp removal using cold endoscopic mucosal resection with hot endoscopic mucosal resection. Half of the participants will receive cold endoscopic mucosal resection, while the other half will receive hot endoscopic mucosal resection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Complete removal of the colorectal polyp

    The resected specimen will be reviewed microscopically to assess complete resection including the lateral and base margins

    At the time of the procedure (endoscopic mucosal resection)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Procedure time

    At the time of the procedure (endoscopic mucosal resection)

  • Complication after endoscopic mucosal resection

    Within 1 month

Study Arms (2)

Cold EMR group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients who have small colorectal polyps (\<1cm) who receive endoscopic mucosal resection using snare without electrocautery.

Procedure: Cold endoscopic mucosal resection

Hot EMR group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients who have small colorectal polyps (\<1cm) who receive endoscopic mucosal resection using snare with the use of electrocautery.

Procedure: Hot endoscopic mucosal resection

Interventions

Cold endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) means removing small colorectal polyps (\<1cm) with snare without the use of electocautery after injection of normal saline into the submucosa.

Cold EMR group

Hot endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) means removing small colorectalpolyps (\<1cm) with snare without the use of electocautery after injection of normal saline into the submucosa.

Hot EMR group

Eligibility Criteria
