ABSTRACT Objectives The reported rate of delayed bleeding (DB) after hot snare polypectomy (HSP) for 10–19‐mm polyps is 2.1%–2.8%, which is non‐negligible. We hypothesized that a low‐power pure‐cut current (LPPC) yields a lower risk of DB than a coagulation current, and we evaluated the safety of LPPC HSP for colorectal polyps.

Feasibility Study of Modified Underwater Endoscopic Mucosal Resection for Colorectal Polyps
ABSTRACT Objectives Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) is widely performed for colorectal tumors. However, in our experience, it is sometimes difficult to keep a clear endoscopic view underwater, due to dirty fluid inflow or insufficient water pooling after grasping the polyp, or bleeding just after endoscopic resection.

Colonic Malakoplakia With an Adenomatous Appearance on Magnification Endoscopy: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Malakoplakia is a rare chronic granulomatous disease associated with impaired macrophage phagocytosis of bacteria. Because colonic malakoplakia presents with varied endoscopic appearances, its characteristic features have not been clearly defined, and differentiation from colorectal neoplasms during endoscopy may be difficult. We report a case
