An analysis of observations of 68 patients has shown that in certain patients the endoscopic electroexcision of gastric polyps can be fulfilled under conditions of the outpatient clinic. The safety of the operation depends on the patient's state and the preliminary assessment of the following factors: the anatomic shape, polyp size and width of its base. Electroexcisions can not be performed endoscopically for polyps on a false pedicle (due to high risk of bleedings from the vessels of the submucous layer) and plaque-shaped polyps (due to the absence of possibility to put a diathermic loop).

The authors present a clinico-statistical analysis of results of endoscopic polypectomy and dynamic observation of 258 patients with gastric polyps. The aim of the investigation was to determine a true histological diagnosis of gastric polyps using excisional biopsy. An endoscopic investigation has revealed 475 polyps in the stomach of 258 patients.

For the last 15 years endoscopic treatment of early gastric cancer we used in 52 patients. It involved: electroexcision, laser photocoagulation with argon and YAG-Nd lasers. The recurrences, that occurred in 6 patients were also treated with endoscopic methods.

One-year follow-up studies showed that 2 patients with a malignant gastric tumour had recurrence 9 months after the combined treatment; I patient has recurrence in the same terms after similar treatment of creeping benign adenoma. Combined treatment proved to be more effective in 39 patients with large-intestinal tumour, including invasive cancer, with no recurrence during a year.
