Gel immersion endoscopic mucosal resection for a gastric neoplasm with a background of fundic gland polyposis.
概要
Endoscopic submucosal dissection for a gastric neoplasm at the greater curva- ture of the upper gastric body with poly- posis is challenging because of the ease of submersion in water, difficult mucosal incision due to background polyposis, and frequent bleeding during incision. Alternatively, conventional endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is a simple and convenient resection method. However, frequent piecemeal resection is con- cerning [1]. Here, we demonstrate gel immersion EMR for the aforementioned lesion.
