Polypectomy in Shingatalur, Gadag, Karnataka

Why Polypectomy Is Needed

Polypectomy is performed to remove polyps, abnormal tissue growths found during a colonoscopy or upper endoscopy, that could potentially become cancerous over time if left in place, particularly adenomatous polyps in the colon. It is also done to relieve symptoms caused by larger polyps or to obtain tissue for diagnosis when a growth's nature is uncertain.
