How Endoscopic EMR/ESD (Early Cancer/Intramucosal) is performed
This procedure is for endoscopically resectable mucosal or superficial submucosal lesions. Mucosal resection (EMR) or submucosal dissection (ESD) can be selected, as determined by specialist evaluation. The procedure is usually performed under sedation or anesthesia. The lesion is marked via colonoscopy, submucosal fluid is injected to lift the lesion, and a snare or electrocautery is used to resect it, followed by hemostasis and wound management, with clipping if necessary. The resected specimen is sent for pathological evaluation. Postoperative monitoring includes abdominal pain and bleeding. The goal is to completely resect the lesion while preserving intestinal function as much as possible. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
