| Core Tip |
We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the predominance of cold and hot polypectomy for removing colon polyps. The patients’ demographics, endoscopic procedures, No. of examined lesions, lesion size, macroscopic and histologic findings, rates of incomplete resection, bleeding, and perforation, and length of procedure were extracted from six randomized controlled studies. The rates of complete resection and adverse events did not markedly differ between cold and hot polypectomy. However, the procedural time was significantly shorter in the cold polypectomy group. These results suggest that cold polypectomy is a time-saving procedure for removing small polyps with similar curability and safety to hot polypectomy.
