Recurrence Rate After Endoscopic Resection of , Laterally Spreading Tumor Granular Type (LST-G) of the Colon and Rectum: Endoscopic Mucosal Resection Vs. Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

atients assigned to this arm will undergo Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR), a standard endoscopic technique that involves the resection of colorectal Laterally Spreading Tumors - Granular type (LST-G) using a diathermic snare with submucosal injection. The procedure may be performed en bloc or in a piecemeal fashion, depending on lesion size and characteristics. EMR is widely accepted for lesions with low submucosal invasion risk but has a higher recurrence rate than ESD.

Patients assigned to this arm will undergo Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD), an advanced endoscopic technique that allows for en bloc resection of large colorectal Laterally Spreading Tumors - Granular type (LST-G). The procedure involves the use of specialized knives to dissect the submucosal layer, ensuring complete resection with histologically clear margins (R0 resection). ESD has been associated with lower recurrence rates but requires a high level of expertise, longer procedural times, and carries a higher risk of complications.
