Polypectomy is a medical procedure performed to remove polyps from the inner lining of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, typically during a colonoscopy. Polyps are abnormal growths that can develop on the mucosal surface of the colon or rectum and may vary in size and shape. While most polyps are benign, some have the potential to become cancerous over time if left untreated. The procedure involves inserting a colonoscope, a flexible tube with a camera and light, through the rectum and into the colon to locate and visualize the polyps. Using specialized instruments passed through the colonoscope, such as snares or forceps, the polyps are carefully grasped and removed from the colon wall. Polypectomy is a vital diagnostic and therapeutic procedure because it allows for the removal and examination of polyps to determine their type (e.g., adenomatous, hyperplastic) and assess the risk of malignancy. Removing precancerous polyps during colonoscopy can significantly reduce the likelihood of developing colorectal cancer. The procedure is generally safe and well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort. However, there is a small risk of bleeding or perforation of the colon, which is carefully monitored and managed by healthcare providers. Post-polypectomy care involves monitoring for any signs of complications and ensuring the patient's comfort during recovery.
