Tip 12: Tips for Resecting Ileocecal Valve Lesions | March 2021-Tips for Resecting Ileocecal Valve Lesions

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses tips for successful resection of lesions on the ileocecal valve. It emphasizes the use of a soft, plastic cap on the end of the colonoscope to improve visualization of the lesion. Injection of the margin closest to the ileum is recommended to push the lesion away from the ileum and make it easier to access. The video also highlights the presence of a transitional zone of mucosa around the ileocecal valve, which can make it difficult to determine the margin of the lesion. Techniques such as snaring, snare tip soft COAG, and clip placement are demonstrated. The video concludes by mentioning that retroflexion and water floating are additional tools that can be used for accessing lesions on the ileocecal valve. No credits were mentioned. The video is from the ASGE SuTab tip of the week series.
