The EndoRotor nonthermal powered endoscopic debridement (PED) instrument (Interscope, Inc., Whitinsville, Mass) is a new tissue resection device that can be passed through endoscopes. There is a small window in the tip of the instrument, and when suction is applied, tissue is drawn through the window then removed by a rotating cutting blade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The device was used with 41 lesions, of which 18 were colon polyps and 8 were Barrett\u2019s esophagus lesions. Prior attempts at resection using standard techniques had occurred in 85.4% of the lesions. Using the PED device, technical success was achieved in 40 of the 41 lesions, with lesion eradication in 79% of the 19 lesions with follow-up examinations. There were no perforations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
