5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to verify if the ablation of lesions (polyps, adenomas) in the large (and small) intestine can be facilitated by using a traction on the lesions.
Detailed Description
We want to facilitate the ablation of lesions (polyps, adenomas) in the large (and small) intestine by using a traction assisted technique. The traction will be performed by using a haemoclip connected to surgical suture materials. The haemoclip will be fixed to the intestinal mucosa next to the lesion and a loop will be mounted to perform an endoscopic mucosal resection. The aim of the study is to show the feasibility of this technique.
