Integrated Large Complex Polyp Referral Pathway

The referring doctor will use a standardized template to send the referral along with its associated video or high-resolution photographs. Referrals will be reviewed in a consensus fashion by at least 2 expert physicians at St. Michael's Hospital (SMH) on a bi-weekly basis. Polyps will be scored using a standardized evaluation form that documents relevant polyp features to assist the determination of whether a lesion is amenable to curative endoscopic resection. Cases will be triaged as being: (1) a standard polyp suitable for local removal in the community; (2) a complex polyp requiring expert removal at SMH with priority assigned based on the suspected risk of invasive disease; (3) a polyp that is not amenable to endoscopic resection or that is suspicious for cancer will that be recommended for surgical resection.
