Abstract
The experience of removal of small benign epithelial formations of the large intestine by the cold method during screening colonoscopy is described. This method of active secondary prevention of colorectal cancer without the use of electrosurgical excision has become generally accepted in the detection of polyps during the initial examination of patients. The criteria for deciding on cold polypectomy are outlined. It is concluded that its use in an outpatient setting is a safe intervention with minimal risk of complications.
