Aims of the Course

Colonoscopic polypectomy is often viewed as part of the armamentarium of every endoscopist.  But evidence shows that there is unacceptable and unwarranted variation in outcomes.

In this starter course we will introduce the concepts of polypectomy and intermediate EMR (10-30mm) through multiple cases and:

• An evidence based approach

• Focus on the newly released ESGE Curriculum in Polypectomy 2023

• Deconstructing the technique of polypectomy with multiple trainers

• provide an approach for what to do when things get difficult

When?
