Resection rates and safety profile of cold vs. hot snare polypectomy in polyps sized 5–10 mm and 11–20 mm

Hot snare (HS) is widely used for the resection of adenomas >5 mm. The cold snare (CS) has a better safety profile and is more cost- effective. The aims of this study were to evaluate effectiveness and safety of CS polypectomy (CSP) compared to HS polypectomy (HSP) for adenomas sized 5–10 mm and 11–20 mm.
