Clinical Trial Summary

Colonoscopy has been shown to reduce the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer, through the recognition and removal of pre-cancerous lesions, which in most cases evolve with a sequence that goes through formation of high-grade dysplasia (HGD).

The probability of HGD increases with the increase of the lesion of the polyp itself. Lesions> 2 cm are present in 1% of colonoscopy screening. The resection of these lesions presents a greater technical difficulty and consequently a decrease in the efficiency. The rate of incomplete resection reported in the literature reaches 10% while that of recurrence / residual adenoma 16.4 / 31.7%.

The aim of the study SCALP is to evaluate the incidence of complications, efficacy and cost of endoscopic resection of colic lesions> 2cm in a setting of clinical practice in an unselected population
