dc.description.abstract	Endoscopic polypectomy is commonly performed in human medicine, with large-scale studies reported.However, few reports have described its use in veterinary medicine and, specifically, the procedure in thecase of duodenal polyps in cats has not been reported. A 7 kg 14-year-old cat presented with recurrent vom-iting for several months. Gastroduodenoscopy revealed a pedunculated polyp at the pyloric antrum andanother in the duodenum, with its head protruding into the pylorus. Endoscopic polypectomy was per-formed using an electrosurgical snare with no recurrence of clinical signs after six months. Duodenal poly-pectomy in cats may be difficult because of space limitation but it can be safe, minimally invasive, andsuccessful, thus avoiding more invasive surgical techniques. Endoscopic polypectomy may be a viable alter-native to surgery in cats with gastric and duodenal polyps.	es
