Endoscopic mucosal resection for early gastric cancer

Abstract: There is a lack of randomised controlled trials in which endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is compared with gastrectomy for early gastric cancer. There is, therefore, a need for well-designed randomised controlled trials to determine the effects of EMR compared to gastrectomy.

“…[6][7][8][9][10] Moreover, different adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (with or without with radiotherapy) regimens have been shown to provide significant survival advantage to patients with advanced gastric cancer. [11][12][13][14][15] These strategies require reliable staging procedures to ensure the most appropriate (ie, with the highest therapeutic index, the ratio between efficacy and toxicity) treatment for each patient, according to the principles of personalized medicine.…”

“…ESD was initially developed in Japan [1] for the treatment of early gastric cancer confined to the mucosa or submucosa without the presence of lymph node metastasis. Since its development, this type of treatment has been applied in different clinical situations and has been developed on a large scale in the East.…”

“…Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a type of endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). ESD has become the treatment of choice for early gastric cancer and flat precancerous lesions in the oesophagus and stomach since its invention in 1996 in Japan [1]. This type of procedure can be successfully used in the diagnosis and even treatment of submucosal lesions (radical treatment can be applied only for submucosal lesions arising from the lamina muscularis mucosae).…”

“…The value of EMR and ESD has been proven effective in the management of early gastric cancer in several retrospective and prospective cohort studies but lack of high quality randomized controlled trial remains a challenge before routine use of this approach worldwide (52)(53)(54)(55)(56)(57). Considering that bleeding risk does not differ between ESD and EMR and that the perforation risk does not usually lead to life-threatening disease, therefore the benefit of ESD can outweigh the overall harm when compared with EMR with the proviso that that the ESD is performed by experienced practitioners (58).…”
