Endoscopic Therapy for Laterally Spreading Tumors (LSTs)

Conventional ESD is the most suitable method for total resection, especially for large lesions. This method can complete the resection of early gastrointestinal cancer and precancerous lesions, while maintaining the integrity of digestive tract anatomy and physiological function.The operation difficulty of this technique is high, the equipment requirements are high, the operation time is long, and the complication rate is closely related to the technical level of the operator.

Hybrid ESD is a better choice, but only can remove the lesion in one piece, but also has a lower technical difficulty than conventional ESD
