The Role of Endoscopic Resection in the Treatment of Gastrointestinal Neoplasms

Abstract

Endoskopska mukozna resekcija i submukozna disekcija pripadaju naprednim terapijskim metodama u gastrointestinalnoj endoskopiji. Danas su se ove tehnike etablirale kao prva linija liječenja ranih novotvorina probavne cijevi i time potpuno zamijenile potrebu za kirurškim zahvatom kod ovih bolesnika. Poput drugih tehnika u gastrointestinalnoj endoskopiji i ove metode imaju rizik od komplikacija poput krvarenja, perforacije i postproceduralnih striktura. U tom kontekstu u ovom će se članku prikazat mjesto i uloga endoskopske resekcije u liječenju novotvorina probavne cijevi.Endoscopic mucosal resection and submucosal dissection are advanced therapeutic techniques in gastrointestinal endoscopy. Nowadays, these techniques are fully established as a first-line treatment in early gastrointestinal neoplasms, replacing the need for any major surgical interventions. However, these novel endoscopic techniques also come with a risk of complications, such as bleeding, perforations and post-treatment strictures. The role of endoscopic resection in the treatment of early gastrointestinal neoplasms is discussed in this context
