Long-term outcomes and surveillance timing of patients with large non-pedunculated colorectal polyps with histologically incomplete resection in endoscopic resection.

During the long-term follow-up, the only factor that was significantly associated with recurrence was ≥3 piecemeal resections, and most recurrences occurred after ≥12 months. Thus, a histologically incomplete resection with ≤2 piecemeal resections and no findings of suspected submucosal cancer may be considered as complete resection, and these patients may undergo first surveillance colonoscopy after 1-2 years.
