Experienced operators could safely perform complete en bloc resection in the cases of lesions with F0-1 fibrosis. However, in the cases of lesions with F2 fibrosis, the rate of complete en bloc resection was low and the perforation rate was high even when ESD was performed by an experienced operator.

NBI magnification findings of colorectal lesions were associated with histologic grade and invasion depth.

As for safety, ESD/hybrid ESD is equivalent to EMR/EPMR. ESD/hybrid ESD is a feasible technique for en bloc resection and showed no local recurrence. Although local recurrences associated with EMR/EPMR were seen, which were conducted based on our indication criteria, all local recurrences could obtain complete cure by additional endoscopic treatment.
