Real-world topographical efficacy, procedural outcome and safety of endoscopic full thickness resection in colon segments

Figure 1 Description of the full-thickness resection device and its application[10]. Schematic description of the full-thickness resection device (FTRD) technique (https://ovesco.com/ftrd-system/). A: Components of the FTRD: The clip is mounted on the tip of the endoscope. The snare is integrated in the tip of the cap. A grasping forceps is advanced through the working channel of the endoscope; B: The target lesion is grasped with the forceps; C: The target lesion is pulled into the cap; D: The over-the-scope-clip is deployed and creates a full-thickness duplication of the colonic wall; E: The pseudopolyp above the clip is resected using the preloaded snare.
