No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Endoscopic submucosal tumor resection using biopsy forceps was performed for 11 consecutive patients who had clinical indications for lesion removal. Following the injection around a submucosal tumor, the adjacent mucosa or submucosa was grasped with the forceps and pulled away to form a "tent". The tissue was dissected using an electrocoagulating current. In brief, the tumor was dissected from the muscularis propria layer and then carefully removed using forceps. Demographic data, indication for intervention, safety of the procedure and follow-up will be assessed.
