Sa1078 COLORECTAL POLYP FRAGMENTATION AND MARGINAL ASSESSMENT ARE CONCORDANT AMONGST PATHOLOGISTS BUT COMMON BARRIERS TO INTERPRETATION OF RESECTION ADEQUACY IN SNARE POLYPECTOMY

Incomplete resection rates of neoplasia in colonoscopy snare polypectomy is well reported. Pathologist assessment of resection completeness (absence of residual neoplasia), if accurate, could serve as a quality metric. The extent to which pathologists can interpret polypectomy specimens and the specific barriers to assessment of resection adequacy are not well described. We sought to identify to what extent GI pathologists could determine polypectomy resection adequacy.
