Endoscopic resection of large sessile colonic polyps by specialist and non‐specialist endoscopists

Patients with large sessile colonic polyps for which endoscopic resection might be feasible are often referred directly for operation. The aim of this study was to determine the outcome of patients with such polyps diagnosed by specialist and non‐specialist colonoscopists.
