[Endoscopic treatment of polyps of the large intestine: authors' experience with 250 cases of polypectomy]
Abstract
The Authors report their experience of endoscopic polipectomy. This technique represents a gold standard treatment for polyps of the colon-rectum because it is safe and effective, being correlated with low-risk of complications as perforation and hemorrhage. Hospitality stay was only 24-48 hours. The polyps were histologically examined and grade of dysplasia was determined. The patients underwent surgical resection of the colon when an invasive carcinoma was found.
