ENDOSCOPIC RESECTION OF A GIANT PEDUNCULATED COLONIC POLYP USING A DETACHABLE SNARE AND SCISSOR-TYPE KNIFE

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video describes the endoscopic resection of a large pedunculated colonic polyp using a detachable snare and a scissor-type knife to reduce bleeding risk. A 60-year-old male patient with intermittent abdominal pain had a 5 cm polyp in the sigmoid colon. During colonoscopy, the giant polyp's head and thick stalk posed challenges for snare placement and resection. After altering the patient's position, the detachable snare was successfully placed and tightened. The scissor-type knife was used to make a precise cut, and the specimen was retrieved using a clip-with-line traction method. This successful procedure highlights the importance of proper technique in managing large polyps.
