Laparoscopic excision of polyps
Laparoscopic excision of polyps is a minimally invasive surgical approach used to remove selected gastrointestinal polyps or polyp-like lesions when endoscopic removal is not appropriate or when additional surgical treatment is required.
The exact procedure depends on the location, size, appearance, pathology, and depth of the lesion. In many cases, gastrointestinal polyps can be removed endoscopically; laparoscopic surgery is considered when a surgical approach offers greater safety or completeness
What Is a Gastrointestinal Polyp?
A polyp is a growth that develops from the lining of the gastrointestinal tract. Polyps can occur in the colon, small intestine, stomach, or other areas of the digestive system.
Some polyps are benign, while others may contain precancerous or cancerous changes.
