Tissue resection bander and related methods of use

A resection device comprising:

• a first part defining a resection device channel, wherein the first part includes a distal end having a first opening;
• a second part configured to receive at least a portion of the first part, wherein the second part includes an outside surface and a distal end having a second opening, wherein a distal portion of the first part and a distal portion of the second part cooperate to define a resection device track for receiving a resection device;
• at least one ligation band positioned on the outside surface of the second part;
• and
• a trigger line for deploying said at least one ligation band from the distal end of the second part.

A method of resecting tissue comprising:

• attaching a cap assembly to the distal end of an elongated medical device having a working channel, the cap assembly comprising:
• a cap structure comprising a proximal end, a distal end, an outside surface, and a working channel extending from the proximal end to the distal end;
• at least one ligation band positioned on the outside surface of cap structure;
• and
• a trigger line for deploying said at least one ligation band from the distal end of the cap structure;
• wherein the cap structure further comprises a resection device channel;
• and
• wherein a proximal end of the resection device channel is adapted for communication with the working channel of the elongated medical device;
• positioning the cap assembly adjacent tissue to be resected;
• drawing tissue within the cap assembly;
• actuating the trigger line to deploy a ligation band around the tissue;
• and
• actuating a resection device to cut the tissue.
