Three children, 30 to 36 months of age, had solitary juvenile polyps in the sigmoid colon and rectal bleeding of varying severity, In all three patients, the polyps were removed without the use of general anesthesia through a standard 100-cm colonoscope used to examine adult patients. No untoward effects were encountered. Colonoscopic polypectomy is an effective therapeutic procedure and obviates the need for either anxious waiting in the mildly symptomatic patient or colotomy and polypectomy in the child with profuse rectal bleeding.
三名年龄在30至36个月的儿童，在乙状结肠有单个幼年性息肉，并伴有不同程度的直肠出血。在所有三名患者中，均通过用于检查成年患者的标准100厘米结肠镜，在未使用全身麻醉的情况下切除了息肉。未遇到不良影响。结肠镜息肉切除术是一种有效的治疗方法，对于症状较轻的患者无需焦虑等待，对于直肠大量出血的儿童也无需进行结肠切开术和息肉切除术。
