Safe Endoscopic Polypectomy in Ghaziabad

Endoscopic Polypectomy is a minimally invasive procedure performed to remove polyps from the stomach or intestine. Polyps are small tissue growths that can sometimes turn into cancer if not removed early. At Kak Liver and Gut Center, Ghaziabad, Dr. Manish C Kak routinely performs polypectomy during colonoscopy or upper GI endoscopy, ensuring early cancer prevention and accurate diagnosis.

Polypectomy is prescribed when polyps are found on imaging, during routine screening, or when patients experience unexplained bleeding or anemia. Most polyps are detected during colonoscopy, especially in individuals above 45 years or those with a family history of colon cancer. The procedure is painless because it is performed under sedation. A snare loop or electrocautery device is used to gently cut and seal the polyp. Larger polyps may require advanced techniques such as EMR (Endoscopic Mucosal Resection). Removed polyps are sent for biopsy to determine if they are benign or precancerous.

Polypectomy is a day-care procedure, and recovery is quick. Patients can resume normal diet the same day, avoiding heavy or oily meals for the first 24 hours. Mild abdominal discomfort or gas is common. Serious complications are extremely rare when performed by an expert like Dr. Kak. As one of the most trusted centers for endoscopic polyp removal in Ghaziabad and Delhi NCR, Kak Liver and Gut Center uses high-definition scopes and advanced safety techniques, ensuring maximum accuracy and patient comfort.
