Conventional techniques effectively manage previously partially resected colorectal lesions

Findings indicate that conventional endoscopic resection techniques can safely and effectively handle previously partially resected colorectal polyps. Out of 220 such lesions, all were successfully resected with similar recurrence rates (8.2%) compared to lesions without prior resection (7.8%). Notably, previously resected lesions required more advanced methods such as electrocautery and avulsion. Despite trends toward recommending specialized techniques, this study confirms that traditional methods remain viable for experts treating these complex cases.
