Your surgeon is thus able to determine the location and remove the polyps.<\/p><p>This procedure is typically done together with a histology to check if the growths are cancerous or non-cancerous to determine if further treatment is needed. Polyps are usually removed to minimise the chances that they may develop into cancer or other serious conditions.<\/p><p>Polypectomy is a simple and minimally-invasive procedure with a high success rate and a low risk of complication.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/main>\n\t\t\t\t<main class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6dc776e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6dc776e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-327364d\" data-id=\"327364d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e402997 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e402997\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why Is a Polypectomy Done?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d1a1b40 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d1a1b40\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The removal of any polyps that are found in your stomach or colon (large intestine) is strongly encouraged to prevent cancer.
