“…A S A NEW minimally invasive therapeutic approach, EFTR has been used in a few elite endoscopic clinics by endoscopists skilled in ESD. 3 Because of the novelty and the relative difficulty of the procedure, there are no guidelines or consensus that can be regarded as definitive for it. These are proposed indications and contraindications for free-hand EFTR in the treatment of SMTs.…”

Minimally invasive surgery has emerged as the dominant theme of modern surgery, in which endoscopic surgery plays a key role. The technique of endoscopic surgery has evolved continuously with extensive research, improving the treatment modalities as well as expanding the indications for its use. As an active perforation endoscopic technique, endoscopic fullthickness resection (EFTR) is mainly used in the treatment of submucosal tumors (SMTs) of the gastrointestinal tract. With decades of evolution, EFTR has gradually developed into a mature endoscopic operation. Based on clinical experience and current research, indications, techniques, clinical outcomes and future perspectives for EFTR are discussed in this paper. We performed a bibliometric study on EFTR literature and showed robust data through a brief meta-analysis on the topic.
