Effectiveness of Cold Biopsy Forceps With Pre-lift for Complete Resection of Colonic Polyps ≤7mm in Size

"Polyps ≤7mm will be included in the study if deemed appropriate by the colonoscopist..~These polyps will be resected with cold forceps after pre injection into the submucosa with a few millilitres of pre injection solution (19 ml gelofusine, 1ml 1:10000 adrenaline and 1ml indigo carmine). Polyps are grasped with the cold forceps and pulled away from the rest of the colonic mucosa. Attempt will be made to remove polyps with single attempt with the forceps however several grasps may be required for complete visual resection of the polyp.~The polypectomy site and a 5mm rim of normal appearing tissue will then be resected with endomucosal resection (EMR) using conventional snare method. This is to ascertain if there is any residual polyp tissue."
