Descripción
Sumario:Endoscopic full-thickness resection device (FTRD) is a new and promising device for endoscopic full-thickness resection of gastrointestinal lesions. Limited data is available regarding its role in endoscopic full-thickness resection of upper gastrointestinal lesions compared with its well-studied role in colorectal lesions. Colonic FTRD is a preloaded device with a large cap which limits peroral insertion. A 49-year-old woman was referred to us for submucosal gastric lesion resection. Gradual dilatation of the upper esophagus was performed before successful advancement of the endoscope mounted with a FTRD system into the stomach. The lesion was successfully resected with no complications.
