Summary

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an endoscopic technique that allows the removal of lesions of the gastrointestinal tract. The European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) suggests to consider ESD for the removal of colorectal lesions that cannot be removed enbloc with standard polypectomy or endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and for lesions that are \> 20 mm in diameter, with a high probability of having a limited submucosal invasion.

ESD is a technically difficult and time-consuming procedure that is very difficult to learn and to perform, but it allows higher enbloc resection rates compared to other endoscopic techniques and is less invasive than surgery requiring less length of hospital stay.

Recently, several new techniques and devices have been developed to facilitate ESD and to overcome difficulties related to challenging situations. The main difficulties are related to the instability of the operating field, due to the physiologic peristalsis, and to the loss of traction, due to the single operating channel.
