Analyzing methods for reducing recurrence rates after endoscopic mucosal resection of large non-pedunculated colorectal polyps: An Indirect pairwise comparison
Despite advances in endoscopic mucosal resection techniques (EMR), a high polyp recurrence rate remains a challenge. Due to the scarcity of direct comparisons, we performed an indirect comparsion of conventional EMR (EMR alone), underwater EMR (U-EMR), and EMR+ adjuvant thermal ablation of polypectomy margins to assess polyp recurrence rates.

Cold snare polypectomy compared to cold forceps polypectomy for endoscopic resection of guideline defined diminutive polyps: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials
ConclusionCFP was comparable to CSP for the resection of polyps ≤ 3 mm; however, caution should be taken for DCPs > 3 mm because of the low complete resection rate (< 90%).Graphical abstract (Source: Indian Journal of Gastroenterology)

Gastric lymphangioma. Diagnosis by endoscopic resection of a foreign entity
We present a case of an 82-year-old patient who presented with chronic anemia, with a large gastric polyp detected during the initial gastroscopy. Subsequently, an endoscopic resection was performed, confirming histologically that it was a lymphangioma.PMID:38031914 | DOI:10.17235/reed.2023.10085/2023 (Source: Revista Espanola de Enfermedades Digestivas)

AGA Clinical Practice Update on Appropriate and Tailored Polypectomy: Expert Review
Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2023 Nov 28:S1542-3565(23)00853-4. doi: 10.1016/j.cgh.2023.10.012. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDESCRIPTION: In this Clinical Practice Update (CPU), we provide guidance on the appropriate use of different polypectomy techniques. We focus on polyps <2 cm in size that are most commonly encountered by the practicing endoscopist, including use of classification systems to characterize polyps and various polypectomy methods. We review characteristics of polyps that require complex polypectomy techniques and provide guidance on which types of polyps require more advanced management by a therapeuti...
