European guidelines recommend the use of cold snare polypectomy (CSP) for removal of diminutive colorectal polyps (DCP)(5 mm or less). However, for DCP < 4 mm cold biopsy forceps (CBF) may be optional. Moreover, CBF remains the endoscopist's technique of choice for polyp resection and CSP is associated with a failure of specimen retrieval for histology in up to 6.8% of cases. In this study, the investigators aimed to compare the efficacy of CSP with CBF for removal of DCP in routine colonoscopy

| Polypectomy of diminutive colorectal polyps will be performed by CBF | Procedure | All polypectomy procedures will be standardized amongst the study centers. Endoscopists with a minimal experience of at least 50 CBF and CSP performed the polypectomies CBF : The CBF will be performed using a standard biopsy forceps (Gluton Life ® Life Partners). Multiple biopsies bites were taken until complete resection (as many as needed). |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The primary objective of the study is to compare CBF and CSP in terms of efficacy. The primary end-point is the rate of histological complete resection by anatomopathological examination. | Complete histological resection was defined as the absence of visualized residual polyp after saline irrigation as well as negative biopsies of the polypectomy site | through study completion, an average of 2 years. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Specimen retrieval rate (% time of polypectomy) | specimen will be immediately suctioned into the operating channel. | through study completion, an average of 2 years. |
| Procedure time ( overall time between introduction and removal of colonoscope) |
