WHAT TO KNOW
Polyp Removal
Assessment
Removal depends on the size, shape, location and clinical assessment.
Pathology
Removed tissue may be examined to guide the next recommendation.
Recovery
Diet, activity and medication instructions depend on the treatment performed.
The plan depends on the finding
Not every polyp is managed in the same way. The physician determines whether removal is appropriate during the examination or whether referral or another treatment setting is safer.
- Share anticoagulant and antiplatelet medicine use before the procedure.
- Follow the specific post-treatment diet and activity instructions.
- Complete the pathology and follow-up review when requested.
Know when to seek help
