      An 82-year-old man who underwent colonoscopy for iron-deficiency anemia was found to have a 15-mm polyp (Paris 0-IIa, type II NICE classification) involving the entire circumferential of the diverticulum in the distal descending colon. Biopsy specimens from this polyp revealed tubular adenoma with high-grade dysplasia. He was referred for endoscopic resection of this polyp (Video 1, available online at www.VideoGIE.org).
      Colonoscopy showed a polyp in the area of severe diverticulosis (Figure 1, Figure 2). Endoscopic full-thickness resection of the polyp by use of a telescoping cap and a 14-mm-diameter over-the-scope clip (OTSC) was performed (Fig. 3). The margin of the polyp was marked with argon plasma coagulation (APC).

      A 14-mm OTSC (14/6t) was mounted over the 4-mm-long distal attachment on the tip of the endoscope. The endoscope was advanced to the polyp. The polyp was grasped with a raptor forceps and was pulled into the cap. Minimal suction was applied to avoid entrapping adjacent organs.
      Once the APC markers were seen within the cap, the OTSC was deployed to capture all APC markers around the polyp above the OTSC (Fig. 4). Full-thickness resection of the tissue above the OTSC was performed with a needle-knife. Muscle and pericolonic fat were seen at the resection site, which suggested that full-thickness resection had been achieved (Fig. 5). Histopathologic analysis revealed tubular adenoma with negative margins and the presence of muscle fibers and pericolonic fat (Figure 6, Figure 7).
