Summary

The aim is to compare the safety and efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) versus endoscopic intermuscular dissection (EID) for the treatment of rectal neuroendocrine neoplasms (R-NENs), thereby providing guidance for optimizing therapeutic strategies. We retrospectively analyzed consecutive patients with R-NENs who underwent endoscopic resection at our center between January 2020 and February 2026. Patients were assigned to either the ESD group or the EID group. Baseline characteristics and perioperative outcomes were compared, including the number of lesions, maximum lesion diameter, single-lesion procedure time, postoperative complications, positive margin rate, pathological staging, lymphovascular invasion, and the need for additional therapies.

Conditions

  • Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumors
  • ESD
  • EID

Interventions

PROCEDURE

endoscopic intermuscular dissection (EID)

EID:Endoscopic Intermuscular Dissection (EID) is an ultra-minimally invasive technique derived from conventional Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD). Its core principle is not merely to dissect within the submucosal layer, but to "deepen" the dissection plane into the muscularis propria of the rectal wall. Specifically, the surgeon utilizes the natural anatomical plane between the inner circular muscle and the outer longitudinal muscle layers for precise dissection. This procedure involves resecting part of the affected inner circular muscle while preserving the integrity of the outer longitudinal muscle layer.

PROCEDURE

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD)

ESD: A solution is injected beneath the mucosa to create a submucosal cushion, followed by the use of specialized electrosurgical knives to dissect directly within the submucosal layer, thereby achieving en bloc resection of the tumor.
