Heat sink effect of underwater polypectomy in a porcine colon model
Abstract
Underwater polypectomy without the need for submucosal injection has been reported. A heat-sink effect by immersing the polyp in water was proposed but no such experiment has been performed to support the claim. We compared the temperature rise on the serosal side during polypectomy between air- and water-filled colon.Freshly harvested porcine colons were placed in a metal tray with cautery electrode pad attached to its bottom. An upper...
