Prophylactic appendiceal retrograde intraluminal stent placement (PARIS)
EMR or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) are highly effective methods for resecting colonic polyps1-4 but are ineffective when removing polyps arising from the appendiceal orifice. Endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) using the full-thickness resection device (FTRD; Ovesco, Tuebingen, Germany) is a favorable approach for the management of such lesions because it overcomes the potential risk of perforation or incomplete resection by deployment of an over-the-scope clip (OTSC) beneath the polyp before resection.
