Abstract
AIM: To investigate whether out-patient based endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for colon polyps ≤ 10 mm is safe. METHODS: Between January 2004 and December 2012, a total of 3015 EMR cases conducted in 1320 patients were retrospectively reviewed. The factors contributing delayed hemorrhage were analyzed. We calculated the probability of delayed bleeding after stratifying conditions of specific risk factors. RESULTS: The size of the polyp (95%CI: 1.096-1.164, P < 0.001) and patients with chronic renal failure (95%CI: 1.856-45.106, P = 0.007) were identified as independent risk factors for delayed bleeding in multivariate analysis. 95%CI for percent of delayed bleeding according to polyp size was determined for the following conditions: size ≤ 10 mm, 0.05%-0.43%; 20 mm ≥ size > 10 mm, 0.54%-2.08%; size > 20 mm, 4.22%-11.41%. 95%CI was determined for the risk of serious immediate bleeding for a polyp ≤ 10 mm was 0.10%-0.56%. Finally, 95%CI for percent of incomplete resection was 0.07%-0.49% in polyps ≤ 10 mm. CONCLUSION: It seems acceptable to perform outpatient-based EMR for colon polyps ≤ 10 mm.
