Case description

Although endoscopic resection is feasible in early superficially invasive adenoncarcinoma of the colon, it is not possible when the cancer goes deeper as evidenced by non-lifting sign after submucosal injection of saline. Another feature of deep submucosal invasion is broadening of the colon folds adjacent to the polyp.
