Abstract

Videos are presented showing the technique of endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of large and difficult polyps carried out by the authors at their center, which is also a referral center for EMR of large and flat polyps, difficult polyps, and partially removed polyps. Most of the procedures are done in an outpatient setting under monitored sedation. The center has a large database of polyps removed by EMR. Its faculties are active in EMR-related research and have many recent publications in this area. The purpose of this instructional video is to teach EMR of large and difficult polyps to gastroenterologists. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
