Updates in the Treatment of Superficial Gastric Neoplasms by Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

Abstract

ReviewESD is currently the first-line of treatment in the eradication of the pre-malignant and early malignant neoplasms, demonstrating in most studies, mainly from Asia, high rates of efficiency and safety in expert hands. This also reinforces the concept of early detection of pre-malignant and malignant lesions using virtual chromoendoscopy/endoscopic magnification techniques associated with a systematic and sequential revision, based on an endoluminal endoscopic anatomy [1][2][3].
