Abstract

ESD was a safe and effective endoscopic treatment for rectal and gastric carcinoid tumors, although other treatment modalities were desirable for duodenal carcinoid tumors.

“…In most cases, with small lesions (up to 1 cm), endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is conducted, in different versions, as well as endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD) [29][30][31][32]. The latter is considered the method of choice.…”

“…Endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD) is the optimal treatment method because it is associated with the highest R0 resection rate [40][41][42][43][44].…”

Review: Screening, Diagnosis and Management of Gastric Carcinoid

“…Although these lesions are typically benign and treated with conservative management and surveillance, one can argue that patients with gastric carcinoid secondary to chronic atrophic gastritis remain at risk for development of adenocarcinoma, with conversion rate of up to 10% per year; therefore, warranting resection of any and all polyps [36,37,40].…”
