ENDOSCOPIC TECHNIQUES FOR DIVERTICULAR COLON POLYP RESECTION: A CASE PRESENTATION AND EDUCATIONAL OVERVIEW

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the challenges and techniques for removing colorectal polyps located within diverticula. Due to the fragile nature of diverticular walls, there is an increased risk of complications during resection. Various endoscopic techniques such as polyp eversion, band ligation, underwater EMR, and ESD have been developed for safe removal. The Full-Thickness Resection Device (FTRD) is effective for lesions fully within diverticula and reduces the risk of post-resection leakage. A case study of a 46-year-old female with a tubular villus adenoma located within a diverticulum in the sigmoid colon is presented, showcasing the successful use of the FTRD for complete resection without complications.
