Abstract
The predominant complication associated with colonoscopic polypectomy is bleeding, the rate ranging from 0.44 % to 2.6 % Iida et al. [3] used a clipping method for endoscopic polypectomy in 40 patients. However, this maneuver might be quite difficult to accomplish with a single-channel endoscope when the endoscopic view of the pedicle is limited. We developed a new and easy clipping technique for double-channel colonoscopic snare resection of large pedunculated polyps in an attempt to reduce the incidence of hemorrhage. The procedure was performed as follows.
