Abstract
An alternative to transcolonic polypectomy, transabdominally directed, transanal colonoscopic polypectomy, for patients who require polyp removal but in whose cases standard colonoscopic approach has failed is presented. The early results are excellent, and the method also can be applied to other patients who have colonic polyps who undergo procedures such as hysterectomy and cholecystectomy.Keywords
