Abstract
Objective: The objective of the study was to compare the effects of endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of early oesophageal cancer.
Subjects and methods: Eighty-six patients with early oesophageal cancer and precancerous lesions admitted to our hospital from November 2021 to December 2023 were randomly divided into a treatment group (ESD: 43 cases) and control group (EMR: 43 cases). The efficacy and safety of the two methods were compared.
Results: The operation time of ESD was 117.65 ± 19.98, which was longer than that of EMR group (P < 0.05). The hospitalization time of patients in the ESD group was shorter than that in the EMR group (7.51 ± 1.30 vs. 9.16 ± 2.01 days, P < 0.05). Comparable en bloc resection rate, complete resection rate, and curative resection rate of patients in the ESD group (100.0%, 95.35%, and 93.02%) and EMR group (100.0%, 93.02%, and 90.70%) were observed (P > 0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications in the ESD group was 4.65%, which was lower than 13.95% in the EMR group (P > 0.05). No recurrence or metastasis of the primary lesions occurred in both groups. Both groups were displaying better postoperative life quality comparing to that of pre-operation. The quality of life in the ESD group was significantly better than that of the EMR group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Compared with EMR, ESD showed better clinical effects, fewer postoperative complications and higher safety in treating early oesophageal cancer and precancerous lesions. However, the diameter of the lesion should be considered for an optimal surgical plan.
