Summary

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of cold snare EMR versus hot snare EMR for non-pedunculated polyps 10-20mm in size with respect to complete resection rates and adverse events.

DESIGN : A Randomised interventional study. Sample size: 330

Conditions

  • Polyps of Colon
  • Polyps
  • Polyp Intestine

Interventions

PROCEDURE

cold snare endoscopic mucosal resection (C-EMR)

All procedures will be performed by experienced endoscopists (\>3 years of experience/\>1000 polypectomies) with the patient in the left lateral position under propofol sedation. The polyp size will be assessed by boston biopsy forceps (open jaws -7mm) or boston jumbo biopsy forceps (open jaws 10mm) or submucosal injection needle (Olympus (4mm)). A standard snare will be used . submucosal injection of saline mixed with methylene blue will be used (no epinephrine) followed by resection using snare without using electrocautery in C-EMR group.After polypectomy, the area is inspected for residual polyp using NBI and if present, will be resected using biopsy forceps. Bleeding will be assessed for 2 mins to decide upon requirement of immediate hemostatic methods in the form of clipping or electrocoagulation.

A standard snare will be used.submucosal injection of saline mixed with methylene blue will be used.Using ERBE electrosurgical unit - EndoCut Q mode (effect interval duration) and forced coagulation mode in H-EMR group. After polypectomy, the area is inspected for residual polyp using NBI and if present, will be resected using biopsy forceps.
