Retrospective comparison of precutting endoscopic band ligation and endoscopic submucosal dissection for small gastric muscularis propria tumors
Key Points
Precutting endoscopic band ligation significantly reduced operative time compared to endoscopic submucosal dissection.
No adverse events were reported with precutting endoscopic band ligation methodology used.
Retrospective analysis examined outcomes related to two different surgical techniques in gastric tumor treatment.
Future randomized controlled studies are essential to confirm the effectiveness and safety of precutting endoscopic band ligation.
Abstract
Precutting EBL had a shorter operative time than ESD and was associated with no AEs. Future randomized controlled studies are required to confirm the feasibility of this approach.
