CASTRO, Denny J et al. Endoscopic submucosal dissection in early gastric cancer: Initial experience. Gen [online]. 2016, vol.70, n.3, pp.76-79. ISSN 2477-975X.
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a new endoluminal endoscopic procedure that allowed resection for early gastric cancer(EGC) in one bloc. In this paper we present 21 cases of EGC and one case of flat adenoma treated by ESD in our institution.Median age of our patients was 67 years.Macroscopically 11 cases were Tipe IIC, 9 case was Tipe IIa and the other case was Tipe IIa+IIc. According to localization 14 cases were located in the proximal antrum and 8 cases were located in gastric body .there was one perforation that it was solved by surgical procedure and we observed 7 cases with bleeding that were endosc opically treated.
