    Yoji Takeuchi et al. Efficacy and safety of intensive downstaging polypectomy (IDP) for multiple duodenal adenomas in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis: a prospective cohort study

    Intensive downstaging polypectomy, including cold snare/forceps polypectomy and underwater mucosal resection, was shown to: significantly downstage Spigelman stages of duodenal adenomas in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis, with acceptable adverse events, in this prospective study.
