Randomized Controlled Trial Finds Lower Recurrence Rate With Underwater Versus Conventional Colorectal EMR
Randomized Controlled Trial Finds Lower Recurrence Rate With Underwater Versus Conventional Colorectal EMR
Median Thickness of Submucosa in the Resected Specimen Is Less With Underwater Than Conventional EMR for Polyps <20 mm
Median Thickness of Submucosa in the Resected Specimen Is Less With Underwater Than Conventional EMR for Polyps <20 mm
The thickness of submucosal tissue resection can be important for predicting whether the resection margin and submucosal assessment will be adequate when there is suspicion
For Resection Without Injection, Histologic Study Indicates Underwater Gives Most Complete Resection
For Resection Without Injection, Histologic Study Indicates Underwater Gives Most Complete Resection
Previous studies have indicated that cold snare polypectomy effectively removes colorectal lesions up to 15 mm in size but cuts more superficially than hot snare
Cutting Plane Between Underwater and Conventional EMR Is Similar
Cutting Plane Between Underwater and Conventional EMR Is Similar
Randomized controlled trials (RCT) show that underwater EMR (UEMR) is more likely than conventional EMR (CEMR) to result in en bloc and R0 resection for
Underwater EMR Outperforms Conventional EMR for 20- to 40-mm Nonpedunculated Polyps in Randomized Controlled Trial
Underwater EMR Outperforms Conventional EMR for 20- to 40-mm Nonpedunculated Polyps in Randomized Controlled Trial
In a single-center randomized controlled trial from Germany, 148 nonpedunculated lesions 20 to 40 mm in size were included in a per-protocol analysis and randomized
Removing Duodenal Epithelial Lesions: Does Underwater Endoscopic Resection Work?
Removing Duodenal Epithelial Lesions: Does Underwater Endoscopic Resection Work?
Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) has been increasingly utilized in the resection of colonic and duodenal mucosal lesions. Its use for resection of nonpolypoid superficial
Another Study Supports Underwater Versus Conventional Endoscopic Mucosal Resection for Lesions ≥10 mm
Another Study Supports Underwater Versus Conventional Endoscopic Mucosal Resection for Lesions ≥10 mm
Recent randomized controlled trials found that underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) results in more en bloc resections and faster resection for flat and sessile colorectal
