Our experts perform advanced endoscopy procedures to treat polyps and a wide variety of digestive conditions.
Our Digestive Health Institute experts specialize in advanced care for digestive disorders and digestive diseases.
Advanced endoscopic treatments are minimally invasive procedures doctors do with a small, flexible tube to diagnose, treat or manage conditions inside the body without major surgery. At the USC Advanced Resection and Endoscopy Center, our experts specialize in procedures that treat a full range of digestive conditions, including complex and/or benign polyps, colon cancer, rectal cancer and more.
As an academic medical center, our physicians are at the forefront of technology and research to advance the state of endoscopic treatments while providing the best in comprehensive, personalized care for you. We offer minimally invasive procedures to remove complex or large polyps in your colon. Our physicians pioneered an innovative procedure called combined endo-laparoscopic surgery (CELS), which allows us to remove only a portion of the colon wall that contains the polyp. This procedure helps you recover better and faster compared to traditional laparoscopic colon resections. Since pioneering this procedure, we have performed it more than any other center in the world, giving you access to the most experienced clinicians.
