Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Rex presents a case of a 47-year-old male who had a screening colonoscopy. A large polyp in the hepatic flexure was discovered, and Dr. Rex discusses the approach to its removal. He mentions the importance of photos from referring doctors in determining the likelihood of cancer. He demonstrates the use of retroflexion to access the lesion and injects the area. He then proceeds to resect the polyp using a snare and discusses the use of snare-tip soft coagulation to reduce recurrence rates. The video also includes discussions with other physicians about stabilizing the scope, the cost of using multiple clips for closure, and defining complete closure. The video ends with Dr. Rex demonstrating the closure of the wound using Boston clips. <br /><br />No credits were given in the transcript.
