NCT ID NCT03962868

First seen Jan 23, 2026 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study compared two procedures for removing large, flat colon polyps (over 25 mm) in 360 adults. One method, ESD, removes the polyp in one piece but has higher risks and costs. The other, EMR, removes it in pieces but is safer and cheaper. The goal was to see which leads to fewer polyps coming back and which is more cost-effective over 3 years.
