Summary

Study Objective: To compare the hospital costs between the standard surgical procedure and the Laparascopic Assisted Colonoscopic Polypectomy (LACP) technique for patients with advanced polyps in the colon.

Detailed description

All patients being referred for possible LACP to the Division of Colorectal Surgery at Stony Brook University Medical Center will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion using a computer generated system to undergo either partial colectomy (performed by means of laparoscopy when possible), or LACP for the treatment of advanced polyp(s). Our research assistant will be present in the operating room to record the data.Patients will then undergo standard clinical management while hospitalized at Stony Brook according to the procedure performed.
