Abstract
Background and Aims
In the past, endoscopic resection of gastric subepithelial lesions (SELs) was restricted to small lesions confined to the submucosa. Larger and deeper lesions were resected surgically. Recent innovations in endoscopy have yielded multiple techniques for extending the boundaries and providing minimally invasive resection of larger and deeper lesions.
Methods
This article presents the different endoscopic modalities for resecting gastric SELs. The video illustrates, through clinical examples, how to choose the appropriate resection method and provides technical tips for these techniques.
Results
In this case series, we implemented different endoscopic resection modalities on the basis of endoscopic and endosonographic evaluation of the tumor and patient anatomical factors. Successful en bloc resection of gastric SELs was achieved in all patients without adverse events.
Conclusions
Multiple techniques made endoscopic resection of larger and deeper gastric SELs feasible. Successful resection requires familiarity with these techniques' tips and tricks.
期刊介绍:
VideoGIE, an official video journal of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, is an Open Access, online-only journal to serve patients with digestive diseases. VideoGIE publishes original, single-blinded peer-reviewed video case reports and case series of endoscopic procedures used in the study, diagnosis, and treatment of digestive diseases. Videos demonstrate use of endoscopic systems, devices, and techniques; report outcomes of endoscopic interventions; and educate physicians and patients about gastrointestinal endoscopy. VideoGIE serves the educational needs of endoscopists in training as well as advanced endoscopists, endoscopy staff and industry, and patients. VideoGIE brings video commentaries from experts, legends, committees, and leadership of the society. Careful adherence to submission guidelines will avoid unnecessary delays, as incomplete submissions may be returned to the authors before initiation of the peer review process.
