ASGE DDW Videos from Around the World | 2023-CAP UEMR FOR INTRA-APPENDICEAL LESIONS

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the use of cap suction underwater endoscopic mucosal resection for managing intrapendicular lesions. This technique involves applying suction underwater to create enfolding of the lesion, making snaring easier. Two video cases are presented, showing successful resection and blocking of intrapendicular lesions using this method. The procedures were performed under deep sedation with Propofol, using a colonoscope with a conic-shaped cap. The video emphasizes the importance of maintaining an underwater environment to keep the muscularis propria away from the resection plane. Both patients were discharged on the same day with no complications. This technique offers a simple and safe alternative to other complex treatments.
