Abstract
Large benign-looking polyps that are not amenable to endoscopic polypectomy may require bowel resection for removal. Although laparoscopic resection of bowel has improved short term outcomes in patients, there are still risks associated with bowel resection. A combined approach using both endoscopy and laparoscopy in carefully selected patients with large benign polyps not amenable to endoscopic removal have been described to as an alternative. Studies have shown that both short term and long term outcomes are safe and effective as a technique to remove such polyps. We present a case report of our initial experience with this technique, a summary of patient’s selection for this technique as well as a review of the outcomes of this technique from available evidence.
