polypectomy

It has been well established that the vast majority of colorectal adenocarcinomas derive from precursor lesions such as colorectal adenomas and colorectal mucosal dysplasia.

Residual adenoma is a common finding in colorectal adenocarcinomas.

Endoscopic polypectomy decreases the incidence of colorectal cancers in treated population and prevents death from colorectal cancer.
