| Core Tip |
This study compares endoscopic mucosal resection and argon plasma coagulation (APC) in elderly (≥ 50 years) colon polyp patients. APC demonstrated superior outcomes, including shorter operative time (10.63 minutes vs 13.27 minutes, P < 0.001), reduced intraoperative bleeding (39.00% vs 52.42%, P = 0.031), and lower inflammatory markers (procalcitonin and C-reactive protein, P < 0.001) compared to endoscopic mucosal resection. While both techniques showed similar overall efficacy, APC had a lower recurrence rate (2.00% vs 8.06%, P = 0.045). These findings suggest APC may be preferable for small polyps (< 1.5 cm) in elderly patients due to faster recovery and reduced complications. |
