Excision and Extraction
Chapter 30
Jan Brooks RN, BSN, CGRN
1. Describe techniques and precautions
taken when removing foreign bodies.
 2. Explain indications, contraindications,
procedures and potential complications
with polypectomy
 3. Describe indications, contraindications
and procedure of endoscopic
sphincterotomy

Objectives
Foreign bodies may be in the esophagus,
stomach, duodenum or colon
 It may be accidental or deliberately
swallowed or introduced into the rectum
 Most frequent victims are children 6
months to 4 years, persons with dentures,
inebriated or mentally impaired

Foreign Body Removal

Most occur at an anatomical or
physiological narrowing
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Cricopharyngeal area
Lower esophageal sphincter (LES)
Pylorus
Duodenal C Loop
Ligament of Treitz—suspensory muscle from
diaphragm that follows the duodenum to jejunum
◦ Ileocecal valve
◦ Anus
Foreign Body Removal

Types of items ingested:
◦ Coins, toys, crayons, buttons, other small
objects
◦ Meats
◦ Lower GI tract-may be accidental or as a result
of criminal assault
◦ Iatrogenic (medical or dental) devices
◦ Small bowel video capsule
Foreign Body Removal
80-90% pass through without incident,
usually within 48 hours
 10-20% require endoscopic removal
 1% require surgical intervention


Most involve the esophagus, especially
with a benign or malignant stricture, web
or ring
Foreign Body Removal
Most ingested objects that get into the
stomach will eventually pass.
 Conservative management is usual
 Surgical removal is generally not
considered unless a week has gone by
 Children—size dependent objects

Foreign Body Removal

Endoscopic removal considered when:
◦ Food Boluses
◦ Lead or mercury containing items such as
batteries
◦ Sharp pointed objects-needles, pins, toothpicks
◦ Long narrow objects, such as wires
◦ Item is greater than 2 cm in diameter
◦ Ingestion of illicit drugs
Foreign Body Removal

Contraindications:
◦ Risk of removing the object is greater than the
risk posed by the object
◦ Uncooperative patient
◦ Patients with known or suspected perforated
viscus

Foreign Body Removal

Tools utilized:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Laryngoscopes and curved forceps
Rat tooth, alligator forceps
Three or four pronged forceps
Snare wire, biopsy forceps
Nets
Baskets
Overtubes and Endoscopic hoods
Foreign Body Removal

Use of the Overtube
◦ When object has sharp edges
◦ Multiple passages are required
◦ Protection of the airway
◦ Sharp objects must be removed with the
Pointed end down or covered if both ends are
pointed
Foreign Body Removal
Patient is sedated
 Glucagon available to decrease motility
 Monitoring equipment utilized
 Protect airway to prevent aspiration

Foreign Body Removal
Beer cap
Bravo
Meat impaction
Examples
Ring

Concretion of food or foreign matter that
have undergone digestive changes
◦ Trichobezoars—matted hair
◦ Phytobezoars—plant material
Treatment:
physical disruption –liquid diet, suction and lavage,
endoscopic fragmentation
Chemical attack with papain, acetycysteine or
cellulose
Surgical removal
Bezoar Removal

Types:
◦ Pedunculated—have a stalk
◦ Sessile—attached by broad base to the mucosa
Want to remove them to remove the potential of
becoming malignant
Polypectomy
Use of Electro surgical Units (Cautery)
 Requires use of grounding pad

◦
◦
◦
◦
Apply to flank or thigh
Avoid boney prominences
Avoid Adipose tissue
Tattoos-especially those with colors, metallic
inks
◦ No lotions or oils on skin for adequate contact
◦ Document skin after removal
Polypectomy

Contraindications
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Use of ASA, NSAIDs, or anticoagulants
Coagulopathy
Polyps that appear malignant and invasive
Inadequate bowel prep
Uncooperative patients
Polypectomy

Can be done with:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Cold or Hot biopsy forceps
Cold Snares
Injection Snare
Snare wire utilizing cautery
May require normal saline injection at base for ease
in removal
◦ Communication is essential between physician and
GI assistants
Polypectomy

May require epineprine injected at the
base for vasoconstriction
• Use of the Polyloop to ligate the stalk
◦ Be careful not to cut through the stalk
Snare wire is used to lasso stalk, note
blanching prior to cutting
 May require segmental resection if too
large

Pedunculated Polyps
If less than 8 mm, hot or cold biopsy
forceps may be utilized
 Less than 1 cm, snare wire used
 May require segmental resection if too
large
 May require Normal saline injected at the
base to raise the base of the polyp for
resection

Sessile Polyps

Retrieval of polypoid tissue is important
so that the specimen may have complete
histological determination.
◦ May be done with removing the tissue from
biopsy forceps
◦ Caught in specimen trap utilizing suction
◦ Use of the snare wire or net to bring it to
outside the body
◦ Direct suction applied to the polyp
◦ Bolus of water used to dislodge tissue
Polypectomy

Complications:
◦ Bleeding –immediate or up to 21 or more days post
polypectomy
◦ Adverse reactions to sedation
◦ Vasavagal response from pain or abdominal
distention
◦ Transmural burns
◦ Perforation
◦ Explosion of flammable gases methane and
hydrogen
◦ Thermal injury from cautery malfunction
Polypectomy
Utilizing tattooing when area is too large
to remove or mass
 May require resection
 Gastric Polyps

◦ Recommendations depend on pathology
◦ Glucagon may be used to decrease peristalsis
◦ Use of H2 blockers and PPI due to ulcer
formation with removal
Other Considerations
Examples
Polyp and post polypectomy
Injection
Then
snaring
Tattooing
Also known as papillotomy
Is the electrosurgical incision of the
papilla of Vatar and fibers of the sphincter
of Oddi
 Utilized to assist passage of bile and/or
common bile duct stones
 Utilize both radiological and direct
visualization
 Communication is essential between
physician and assistant

Recent MI or severe pulmonary disease
Allergy to contrast medium
Presence of extremely large stone >20-25
mm
 Inability to properly position the
sphinctertome
 Increased risk with periampullary
diverticula

Contraindications
Assessment of patient, labs, history

Prep for ERCP and
Sphincterotomy

Successful sphincterotomy is usually
signaled by
◦ Gush of bile, sludge and stones
◦ Balloons, dilators and baskets may be used for
stone removal
◦ If stones are too large, may use lithotripsy to
break stones for passage
◦ Placement of stents
ERCP and Sphincterotomy
Ampulla
Sludge
Sphincterotomy
Cholesterol Stones
Biliary Stent
Double pigtail stent
Pancreatic stent

Indications:
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Symptomatic pancreatic obstruction
Pancreatic calculi
Pancreatic duct strictures, leaks or pseudocysts
Pancreas divism

Complications

Dissolving agents—
◦ Ursodeoxycholic acid orally –stop after 6 months
◦ Direct contact solutions




Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) cholesterol dissolution
EDTA –enhances calcium solubility
N-acetylcysterine –promotes mucin solubility
Can be delivered during ERCP with nasobiliary tube or
transhepatic
Extracorporeal shock wave Lithotripsy
◦ Utilizes sound waves to fragment stones
◦ Is non invasive
Additional Treatments

Pulsed-Dye Laser Lithotripsy
◦ Stones are destroyed with a pulsed-dye laser
beam
◦ Allows for precise targeting against stone
◦ Highly effective and safe for fragmentation
◦ Limited usage due to cost of the laser
lithotriptors
◦ Can be done at the time of ERCP or
percutaneously
