ASGE Endoscopy Live: Colonoscopy Symposium | September 2022-Endoscopy Live Case Demonstration 7

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In the video, Dr. Gregory Haber from NYU discusses a case involving a 65-year-old woman with a previous colonoscopy. The patient had a 2.5-centimeter descending colon polyp that was tattooed on the opposite wall and was referred to Dr. Haber for evaluation and resection. Dr. Haber explains the endoscopic evaluation, pathology findings, and follow-up colonoscopy results. He then discusses the full thickness resection (FTRD) procedure to remove the lesion. The procedure involves using a large cap attached to the endoscope to pull the tissue in and a snare to cut and remove the lesion. Dr. Haber demonstrates the procedure and shows the resected tissue. He also addresses questions about potential complications such as bleeding and stenosis, and discusses what steps would be taken if the resection was not complete. Finally, Dr. Haber thanks his team for their support during the procedure.
