Combined endoscopic and robotic-assisted transcolonic polypectomy as a novel technique for challenging polyp resection
This case demonstrates that combined endoscopic and robotic-assisted transcolonic polypectomy is a safe, feasible, minimally invasive alternative for select complex, benign colonic polyps. This novel technique may reduce the need for partial colectomy and associated morbidity, offering a promising option for managing challenging lesions, especially in patients with multiple comorbidities and high operative risk.
