Abstract
Extensive endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for gastric adenoma or early cancer can lead to post-ESD stenosis. This may cause a decrease in quality of life and an increase in medical issues. Therefore, this study examined the safety and effectiveness of gastric open peroral endoscopic myotomy (GO-POEM) in preventing stenosis following ESD. A retrospective investigation was carried out on 31 patients who underwent gastric ESD for > 75% of the lumen in the antrum or pylorus at the Presbyterian Medical Center in Korea between December 2004 and October 2022. The patients were divided into GO-POEM (n = 11) and non-GO-POEM groups (n = 20). The average age of the 31 patients was 73.23 years, and 18 were male. There were no differences in age, sex, location, gross findings, or procedure time between the 2 groups. In the GO-POEM group, only 1 patient (9 %) developed stenosis, compared to 11 patients (55 %) in the control group (P = .02). Multivariate analysis showed that the GO-POEM group had a significantly lower risk of post-ESD stenosis (P < .05). Stenosis symptoms resolved with a single endoscopic balloon dilatation (EBD) in 1 patient in the GO-POEM group. In contrast, 5 of 11 patients with stenosis in the non-GO-POEM group required a median of 2 EBD sessions (range, 1-8). GO-POEM may be an effective and reliable method for preventing stenosis post extensive gastric ESD. Further investigations are necessary to establish its efficacy and safety.

Abstract
ESGE suggests conventional endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD; marking and mucosal incision followed by circumferential incision and stepwise submucosal dissection) for most esophageal and gastric lesions. ESGE suggests tunneling ESD for esophageal lesions involving more than two-thirds of the esophageal circumference. ESGE recommends the pocket-creation method for colorectal ESD, at least if traction devices are not used. The use of dedicated ESD knives with size adequate to the location/thickness of the gastrointestinal wall is recommended. It is suggested that isotonic saline or viscous solutions can be used for submucosal injection. ESGE recommends traction methods in esophageal and colorectal ESD and in selected gastric lesions. After gastric ESD, coagulation of visible vessels is recommended, and post-procedural high dose proton pump inhibitor (PPI) (or vonoprazan). ESGE recommends against routine closure of the ESD defect, except in duodenal ESD. ESGE recommends corticosteroids after resection of > 50 % of the esophageal circumference. The use of carbon dioxide when performing ESD is recommended. ESGE recommends against the performance of second-look endoscopy after ESD. ESGE recommends endoscopy/colonoscopy in the case of significant bleeding (hemodynamic instability, drop in hemoglobin > 2 g/dL, severe ongoing bleeding) to perform endoscopic hemostasis with thermal methods or clipping; hemostatic powders represent rescue therapies. ESGE recommends closure of immediate perforations with clips (through-the-scope or cap-mounted, depending on the size and shape of the perforation), as soon as possible but ideally after securing a good plane for further dissection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although lesions occupying a large circumference are associated with the risk of post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) strictures, the corresponding data for duodenal lesions are unknown. We aimed to analyze the incidence of post-ESD strictures after wide-field duodenal ESD. METHODS In this retrospective study of duodenal lesions treated with ESD between July 2010 and August 2021, we included lesions that resulted in mucosal defects occupying more than half of the circumference and excluded lesions located in bulbs and involving Vater's papilla. We analyzed the incidence rates of stricture and luminal narrowing, in addition to bleeding and perforation as the outcomes in this study. Stricture was defined as the inability of the endoscope to pass through the lumen. A single endoscopist reviewed all endoscopic images and judged the degree of luminal narrowing. RESULTS Eighty lesions were included, of which 2 involved mucosal defects occupying more than 90% of the circumference. The wound was closed, at least partially, in 90% in all lesions and in 86% of lesions with a mucosal defect occupying more than 75% of the circumference. None of the lesions caused delayed perforation and stricture, whereas 2 lesions caused delayed bleeding. Only 6 lesions caused luminal narrowing. When examined by the degree of closure, the rate of luminal narrowing increased with complete closure, incomplete closure, and nonclosure (4.9%, 9.1%, and 25.0%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Suturing may prevent post-ESD bleeding and perforation as well as stricture formation in cases of duodenal tumors, with mucosal defects occupying a large circumference.

Recent approach for preventing complications in upper gastrointestinal endoscopic submucosal dissection. DEN OPEN 2022; 2:e60.

Abstract
Although endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive treatment method for upper gastrointestinal (GI) tumors, patients undergoing upper GI ESD sometimes fall into a serious condition from complications. Thus, it is important to fully understand how to prevent complications when performing upper GI ESD. One of the major complications in esophageal and gastric ESD is intraoperative perforation. To prevent this complication, blind dissection should be avoided. Traction-assisted ESD is a useful technique for maintaining good endoscopic view. This method was proven to reduce the incidence of intraoperative perforation, which would become a standard technique in esophageal and gastric ESD. In gastric ESD, delayed bleeding is the most common complication. Recently, a novel prediction model (BEST-J score) consisting of 10 factors with four risk categories for delayed bleeding in gastric ESD was established, and a free mobile application is now available. For reducing delayed bleeding in gastric ESD, vonoprazan ≥20 mg/day is the sole reliable method in the current status. Duodenal ESD is still challenging with a much higher frequency of complications, such as perforation and delayed bleeding, than ESD in other organs. However, with the development of improved devices and techniques, the frequency of complications in duodenal ESD has been decreasing. To prevent intraoperative perforation, some ESD techniques, such as using the distal tips of the Clutch Cutter, were developed. An endoscopic mucosal defect closure technique would be mandatory for preventing delayed complications. However, several unresolved issues, including standardization of duodenal ESD, remain and further studies are demanded.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endoscopic resection of over 3/4 of the lumen of the antrum or pylorus is a known risk factor for post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) stenosis. Local or systemic steroids may reduce the risk of stenosis, but their overall role in stenosis prevention remains controversial. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic gastric open peroral endoscopic myotomy (GO-POEM) in preventing post-ESD stenosis. METHODS Ten patients who underwent GO-POEM during or immediately after ESD in the Presbyterian Medical Center between June 2017 and November 2020 were included. All patients underwent excision of over 3/4 of the lumen of the antrum or pylorus. GO-POEM was performed without submucosal tunneling. RESULTS Well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma, tubulovillous adenoma with high-grade dysplasia, and tubular adenoma with low-grade dysplasia were diagnosed in three, one, and six patients, respectively. GO-POEM was performed successfully in all the 10 patients. Stenosis could not be evaluated in one patient, whereas one of the remaining nine patients developed post-ESD stenosis. GO-POEM decreased the risk of post-ESD stenosis in the other eight patients. Two patients presented with intraprocedural bleeding, both of whom were managed endoscopically successfully. CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic GO-POEM may be a novel, effective and safe treatment modality for preventing post-ESD stenosis in the stomach. Well-designed, multicenter studies with large sample sizes are needed to confirm our results.

Abstract
We report on two patients with stasis symptoms, including vomiting and nausea that were caused by deformity, stenosis, and decreased gastric peristalsis associated with artificial ulcers after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). In both cases, the symptoms remained unresolved despite repetitive endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD). Therefore, laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy was performed. Soon after the procedure, their food intake was improved. Laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy can be an option for the treatment of gastric outlet obstruction induced by a large field of gastric ESD that is refractory to EBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM There have been studies on risk factors for stenosis after pyloric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). However, the most appropriate strategies for the management of cases with these risk factors have not been established. This study aimed to investigate post-ESD management by evaluating the timing of stenosis and the effectiveness of endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) after pyloric ESD. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed cases of pyloric ESD. We first reassessed risk factors for stenosis in multivariate analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve and defined patients with the identified risk factors as the risk group. The primary outcome was the timing of stenosis in the risk group assessed by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS We reviewed 159 cases with pyloric ESD and observed pyloric stenosis in 25 cases. Cases with circumferential mucosal defect ≥ 76% were identified as the risk group. The stenosis-free probability in the risk group was 97% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 79-100%), 94% (95% CI: 76-98%), and 85% (95% CI: 66-93%) on days 7, 14, and 21, respectively. It decreased every week thereafter and did not significantly change after day 56. Twenty-three stenosis cases, except for conservative improvement, including six whole circumferential pyloric ESD cases, were improved by EBD without complications. CONCLUSIONS Post-ESD stenosis often developed from the third to the eighth week. In all pyloric ESD cases, including whole circumferential pyloric ESD cases, pyloric stenosis was improved following EBD without complications.

Abstract
Gastric cancer accounts for a significant proportion of worldwide cancer-related morbidity and mortality. The well documented precancerous cascade provides an opportunity for clinicians to detect and treat gastric cancers at an endoscopically curable stage. In high prevalence regions such as Japan and Korea, this has led to the implementation of population screening programs. However, guidelines remain ambiguous in lower prevalence regions. In recent years, there have been many advances in the endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early gastric cancer and precancerous lesions. More advanced endoscopic imaging has led to improved detection and characterization of gastric lesions as well as superior accuracy for delineation of margins prior to resection. In addition, promising early data on artificial intelligence in gastroscopy suggests a future role for this technology in maximizing the yield of advanced endoscopic imaging. Data on endoscopic resection (ER) are particularly robust in Japan and Korea, with high rates of curative ER and markedly reduced procedural morbidity. However, there is a shortage of data in other regions to support the applicability of protocols from these high prevalence countries. Future advances in endoscopic therapeutics will likely lead to further expansion of the current indications for ER, as both technology and proceduralist expertise continue to grow.

Abstract
AIMS Early gastric cardiac cancer (EGCC) has a low risk of lymph node metastasis with the potential for endoscopic therapy. We aimed to evaluate the short- and long-term outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)-resected EGCCs in a large cohort of Chinese patients and compare endoscopic and clinicopathologic features between EGCC and early gastric non-cardiac cancer (EGNC). METHODS We retrospectively studied 512 EGCCs in 499 consecutive patients and 621 EGNCs in 555 consecutive patients between January 2011 and March 2018 at our center. We investigated clinicopathological characteristics of EGCC tumors, ESD treatment results, adverse events, and postresection patient survival. RESULTS Compared with EGNC patients, EGCC patients were significantly older (average age: 66 years versus 62 years, p < 0.001). The percentage of the gross 0-IIc pattern was higher in EGCCs (46.1%) than in EGNCs (41.5%), while the frequency of the 0-IIa pattern was lower in EGCCs (14.9%) than in EGNCs (22.4%) (p = 0.001). Compared with EGNCs, EGCCs showed smaller size, deeper invasion, fewer ulcerated or poorly differentiated tumors, but more cases with gastritis cystica profunda. The prevalence of ESD-related complications was higher in EGCCs (6.1%) than in EGNCs (2.3%) (p = 0.001). In EGCCs, the disease-specific survival rate was significantly higher in patients of the noncurative resection group with surgery (100%), compared with that (93.9%) without surgery (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Clinicopathological characteristics were significantly different between EGCCs and EGNCs. ESD is a safe and effective treatment option with favorable outcomes for patients with EGCC. Additional surgery improved survival in patients with noncurative ESD resection.

Abstract
Prevention therapy is recommended for lesions >1/2 of the esophageal circumference. Locoregional steroid injection is recommended for lesions >1/2-3/4 of the esophageal circumference and oral steroids are recommended for lesions >1/2 of the subtotal circumference. For lesions of the entire circumference, oral steroid combined with injection steroid is considered. Endoscopic balloon dilatation (EBD) is the first choice of treatment for stricture after esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Radical incision and cutting or self-expandable metallic stent can be considered for refractory stricture after EBD. In case of intraoperative perforation during esophageal ESD, endoscopic clip closure should be initially attempted. Surgery is considered for treatment of delayed perforation. Current standard practice for prevention of delayed bleeding after gastric ESD includes prophylactic coagulation of vessels on post-ESD ulcers and giving proton pump inhibitors. Chronic kidney disease stage 4 or 5, multiple antithrombotic drug use, anticoagulant use, and heparin bridging therapy are high-risk factors for delayed bleeding after gastric ESD. Intraoperative perforation during gastric ESD is initially managed by endoscopic clip closure. If endoscopic clip closure is difficult, other methods such as over-the-scope clip (OTSC), polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheet shielding etc. are attempted. Delayed perforation usually requires surgical intervention, but endoscopic closure by OTSC or PGA sheet may be considered. Resection of three-quarters of the circumference is a risk factor for stenosis after gastric ESD. Giving prophylactic local steroid injection and/or oral steroid is reported, but effectiveness has not been fully verified as has been done for esophageal stricture. The main management method for gastric stenosis is EBD but it may cause perforation.
