Risk factors associated with adenoma recurrence following cold snare endoscopic mucosal resection of polyps ≥20mm: a retrospective chart review

Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is a technique to remove larger lesions in the digestive tract that have not invaded into the submucosal space. EMR generally involves submucosal injection with en bloc or piecemeal snare resection of a polyp, although the non-injection lift technique of underwater EMR has more recently been described [1]. Traditionally hot snare polypectomy has been recommended for removal of larger polyps [2]; however, in 2017, the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy updated guidelines recommending that there may be a role for piecemeal cold snare polypectomy in polyps between 10 to 19mm to decrease risk of deep mural injury [3].
