Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Surgery - Cold Snare Endoscopic mucosal resection with adjuvant snare tip soft coagulation
Treatment: Surgery - Cold Snare Endoscopic Mucosal Resection

Experimental: Cold EMR with adjuvant STSC to margins - Standard cold EMR technique with adjuvant snare tip soft coagulation to defect margins

Active Comparator: Cold EMR - Standard Cold EMR resection technique


Treatment: Surgery: Cold Snare Endoscopic mucosal resection with adjuvant snare tip soft coagulation
Use of injected chromogelofusine solution to raise a lesion prior to polypectomy. Lesion then removed with a stiff thin-wired snare. Following this defect margins are treated with electrocautery to create a rim of ablated tissue.
