Illustration of the removal of a colorectal polyp. Colorectal polyps are growths on the inner lining of the colon or rectum that have the potential to turn cancerous. They are typically removed by a wire loop attached to an endoscope. An electric current in the loop heats it and cauterises the wound, preventing bleeding. | |
