Oncologic Colorectal Resection, Not Advanced Endoscopic Polypectomy, Is the Best Treatment for Large Dysplastic Adenomas

Abstract

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), and partial circumference resection are used for large benign polyps to avoid an "Oncologic" Colorectal Resection (OCR); polyps with invasive cancer require OCR. This review of polyp patients who had OCR was done to stratify polyps into risk groups to guide treatment.
