Endoscopic submucosal dissection, though technically challenging, yields high resection rates in the management of colorectal neoplasms, according to a Gastroenterology & Endoscopy News report.
Here are 18 things to know about ESD efficacy and safety, according two studies presented at Digestive Disease Week in Chicago.
Long-term outcomes for ESD in colorectal cancer
A group of curative resection patients had outcomes including:
• Three-year recurrence-free survival: 100 percent
• Three-year overall survival: 98 percent
• Five-year recurrence-free survival: 100 percent
• Five-year overall survival: 96.8 percent
A group of patients with non-curative resection and additional surgery patients had outcomes including:
• Three-year recurrence-free survival: 96.2 percent
• Three-year overall survival: 98 percent
• Five-year recurrence-free survival: 96.2 percent
• Five-year overall survival: 98 percent
A group of patients with non-curative resection and no additional surgery had outcomes including:
• Three-year recurrence-free survival: 97.9 percent
• Three-year overall survival: 100 percent
• Five-year recurrence-free survival: 89.5 percent
• Five-year overall survival: 100 percent
Independent predictors of en bloc resection failure or perforation
• Endoscopist: Experienced vs. inexperienced
• Location: Right side vs. rectum and left side vs. rectum
• Macroscopic type: Protruding vs. LST-G
• On semilunar fold: Present vs. absent
• Fold convergence: Present vs. absent
• Scope operability: Poor vs. good
