Abstract
A 27-year-old woman underwent colonoscopy because of chronic constipation and a family history of colon cancer. Colonoscopy revealed a 1.2-cm yellowish sessile lesion with transparent overlying mucosa, at the descending colon (Figure [1 a]). The mass was firm in consistency. After a mucosal defect was created using a biopsy forceps, a yellowish mass was extruded that spontaneously separated into two fragments (Figure [1 b]). Endoscopic mucosal resection was done to remove residual mucosa.
