Ina B. Pedersen et al. Incomplete endoscopic resection of colorectal polyps: a prospective quality assurance study

This study shows that endoscopic resection of polyps 5–19 mm in size was incomplete in 1 out of 6 polypectomies, especially in those with a proximal location and for serrated lesions. Interestingly, no difference in incomplete resection rates was found between board-certified and trainee gastroenterologists.
