Cold- versus hot-snare endoscopic mucosal resection of colorectal polyps: meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Post written by Aamir Saeed, MD, from Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, USA. We aimed to conduct a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to compare cold EMR versus hot EMR for colorectal polyps. Interest in cold EMR for colorectal polyps has been growing, and cold EMR has gained popularity owing to its lower risk of …
