The American Surgeon™, 2010
Outpatient colonoscopy has been proven safe but can rarely be associated with serious complications. The addition of polypectomy to the procedure increases the incidence of all complications with hemorrhage accounting for approximately half. The use of electrocautery for hot biopsy or polyp removal can result in a full-thickness burn without ...

The existence of appendiceal inflammation which resolves spontaneously without surgical intervention has long been controversial. This study was undertaken, therefore, to determine the existence and incidence of recurrent appendicitis.The existence of a large database of patients with abdominal pain enabled a retrospective study of the casenotes of the
