The efficacy and safety of argon plasma coagulation (APC) in the management of polyp remnants in stomach and colon.
PURPOSE Endoscopic treatment of sessile and semipedunculated polyps remains controversial. Residual tissue remains frequently after endoscopic snare polypectomy. The aim of the study was to assess the outcome and safety of argon plasma coagulation (APC) in the management of gastric and colorectal polyp remnants after polypectomy, and to search for clinical parameters useful in predicting the ef...
متن کاملArgon plasma coagulation
Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC) is an application of gas discharges in argon in electrosurgery, which is increasingly used especially in endoscopy. The major application fields are haemostasis, tissue devitalization and tissue reduction.This review describes the physics and technology of electrosurgery and APC. Some characteristics of the argon discharge are shown and discussed, and thermal effe...
متن کاملColonic injury from electric arcing: a significant complication of argon plasma coagulation.
Argon plasma coagulation is increasingly used in endoscopic haemostasis. This case report illustrates the potential for thermal injury at a staple line remote from the area of argon plasma coagulation treatment as a result of electrical arcing. Increasing numbers of colorectal anastomosis and reconstruction procedures are now being performed using stapling techniques and the use of argon plasma...
متن کاملArgon plasma coagulation: Clinical applications in Gastroenterology
sue and most importantly in a non-conduct mode. APC has revealed a remarkable spectrum of clinical applications, raising questions as to whether it should replace laser in clinical practice. The more gastroenterologists familiarize themselves with this technique, the more they appreciate its usefulness. Among its many advantages, the following should be borne in mind: effective and safe coagula...
متن کاملargon plasma coagulation in treatment of post intubation tracheal stenosis
introduction: acquired tracheal stenosis can be created by various malignant or benign causes. the most common cause of acquired non-malignant tracheal stenosis is endotracheal intubation, even for a short period. argon plasma coagulation is a non-contact method of thermal hemostasis. argon plasma coagulation can be used easily and fast and has low depth of penetration. methods: this study is ...
