Evaluation of recurrence and surgical complementation rates after endoscopic resection of large colorectal non-pedunculated lesions

Response to: Endoscopic Shielding With Platelet-rich Plasma After Resection of Large Colorectal Lesions

“…No patient presented recurrence after 4 weeks, and after a revision of medical records; no recurrence was found after follow-up colonoscopy at 6 months. Local recurrence is not worrisome because it can be managed endoscopically with a high success rates, but should be monitored with care in advanced adenomas 5. Obviously, we need further studies to elucidate the role of PRP in the risk of adenoma recurrence and how should be the most appropriate follow-up colonoscopy in patients with high-risk of incomplete resection in which you plan to use PRP as a coverage agent or submucosal injection to prevent delayed bleeding or perforation.…”
