ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of knife assisted polypectomy (KAP) in the treatment of colorectal pedicle polyps (Paris type 0-Ⅰp).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 42 patients with colorectal pedicle polyps who were treated with KAP at Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University and Xuhui District Central Hospital from May to September 2019. Procedure time and complication rates were used to assess the effects of KAP.Results:A total of 48 polyps were found in 42 cases. The median diameter of polyps was 2.0 cm(0.8-3.5 cm). The mean operating time was 11.3±1.1 min. All patients had no severe bleeding or perforation during operation and no delayed bleeding, delayed perforation or electrocoagulation syndrome after operation. Postoperative pathology showed that the margins of all cases were negative.Conclusion:KAP operation is safe and efficient, but long-term efficacy still needs further clinical verification.
