AdventHealth
Summary
This registry is to evaluate the procedural and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection. All patients will receive standard of medical care and no experimental interventions will be performed.
Description
The technique of Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) is currently widely used in the US to remove precancerous or cancerous lesions confined to the mucosa of the GI tract. EMR carries lower morbidity and mortality compare to surgery, at the expense of a higher rate of piecemeal removal, incomplete resection and cancer recurrence. Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) is a newer technique developed in Japan that involves en-bloc resection of the entire lesion irrespective of size, allowing for a detailed analysis of the resected margins and depth of invasion and producing a lower local recurren…
