Can a colonoscopy cut out polyps on the spot?

Bowel polyps found by colonoscopy are first judged and a decision is made whether or not to remove them. Smaller polyps can be removed directly, while larger ones should be biopsied. Because intestinal polyps have a certain degree of malignancy, generally for smaller intestinal polyps, the doctor needs to remove through the colonoscopy after the biopsy to detect the nature of intestinal polyps. If it is determined to be a malignant tumor, further anti-tumor treatment is required. For larger size, or has caused intestinal obstruction, can be considered for traditional surgery or laparoscopic surgery. In recent years, the incidence of colorectal polyps is getting higher and higher, so if you have abdominal pain, diarrhea, often unshaped stools or blood in stools, or have a family history of colon polyps or intestinal cancer, it is recommended that you undergo colonoscopy as early as possible and on a regular basis to clarify your condition.
