ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of argon plasma coagulation (APC) by gastrointestinal endoscopy in the treatment of gastrointestinal polyps. MethodsThe clinical data of 51 patients with gastrointestinal polyps were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into study group (23 cases) and control group (28 cases) according to the treatment methods. The control group was treated with high frequency electrotomy (HFE) by gastrointestinal endoscopy, while the study group was treated with APC by gastrointestinal endoscopy. The operation effect, clinical efficacy, complications and recurrence were compared between the two groups. ResultsThe study group yielded shorter operation time, a lower numeric rating scale (NRS) score, a higher total effective rate (95.65% vs. 71.43%), and a lower total incidence of complications (4.35% vs. 28.57%) in comparison with the control group (all P＜0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the one-time operation success rate of patients with broad-based polyps, flat polyps and pedicle polyps between the two groups (all P＞0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the recurrence rate of half a year and one year between the two groups (all P＞0.05). ConclusionCompared with conducting HFE by gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients, the operation effect is improved, the clinical efficacy is greatly promoted, the complications are reduced, and the safety is enhanced in patients with gastrointestinal polyps conducted APC by gastrointestinal endoscopy.
