Abstract:Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in patients with early gastric cancers (EGCs) in the remnant stomach is technically difficult, owing to the limited space and fibrosis under the suture lines and anastomoses. Conversely, ESD for patients with EGCs in the remnant stomach is less invasive and provides better quality of life than completion total gastrectomy. To clarify the effectiveness and safety of ESD, we reviewed the medical records of patients with EGCs in the remnant stomach who underwent ESD between … Show more
