Abstract

The present letter to editor is related to endoscopic mucosal ablation (EMA). EMA is safe and effective in the treatment of colonic polyps when endoscopic resection is not possible or available, but the indication of EMA should be determined for a further large number of studies. EMA should be used with caution for larger lesions.<br />Competing Interests: Conflict-of-interest statement: All the authors report no relevant conflicts of interest for this article.<br /> (©The Author(s) 2022.
