Service Providers for Video Endoscopy with Polypectomy
Video endoscopy with polypectomy is a procedure that combines the use of a flexible endoscope with the removal of polyps from the gastrointestinal tract. During the procedure, an endoscope with a camera is inserted through the mouth or rectum to visually examine areas like the colon, stomach, or intestines. Once a polyp is located, special instruments are used to remove it safely. This is commonly done to treat or prevent cancer, as polyps can develop into malignant tumors. Preparation typically involves fasting or bowel cleansing. Risks include bleeding, infection, or perforation, though complications are rare. The removed polyp is usually sent for further analysis to determine its nature.
