Clip closure
Patients will be randomized to either closing the mucosal defect after polyp removal or not closing the mucosal defect using clips (main intervention and comparison). The resection margins will be approximated using clips. Complete closure is defined as approximated margins with less than 1cm gap between clips. All patients will further be randomized to two different settings of electrocautery (EndoCut or Coagulation) to standardize otherwise variable electrocautery practice, and for explorative analysis.
