Never start a polypectomy unless you have all equipment and senior back up #FGDebate

Top tips for budding therapeutic endoscopists #FGDebate

@medical_mule for large rectal lesions I tell them they will have some discomfort and discharge for several days and that normal #FGDebate

@medical_mule if complex EMR or ESD I describe like having an operation from inside - it has risks! #FGDebate

@pelicanhere then you know roughly where the post-polypectomy bleed has come from! #FGDebate

@pelicanhere will vary according to endoscopist stamina. If many polyps I tend to clear proximal first #FGDebate

@BottProf consider hybrid ESD/EMR making a circumferential cut. Use a stiffer snare - Olympus spiral #FGDebate

@jaevansgastro not a problem in exophytic lesions but don't biopsy flat lesions #FGDebate

@tomjwlee if you continue diathermy you will perforate - current goes down cord to bowel wall #FGDebate
