Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • complete resection rate

    complete resection rate is defined as a complete en bloc resection of a lesion with tumor-free lateral and vertical margins.

    7 days

  • En bloc resection rate

    En bloc resection rate was defined as the entire lesion could be removed in 1 piece instead of piecemeal resection.

    immediately

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Adverse event rate

    14 days

  • Procedure time

    24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Underwater EMR

EXPERIMENTAL

The patients who are randomized to the " Underwater EMR" arm polypectomy with water will be performed under full water emersion without the use of submucosal injection.

Behavioral: Underwater EMR

Traditional EMR

NO INTERVENTION

The patients who are randomized to the " Traditional EMR" arm polypectomy will be performed with selective saline injection to the layer of tissue underneath the polyp in order to create a "safety cushion" for resection.

Interventions

Underwater EMRBEHAVIORAL

Polypectomy is performed under full water emersion without the use of submucosal injection.
