Core Tip	This report describes a case of delayed intramural hematoma occurring on the fourth day after endoscopic submucosal dissection of a rectal laterally spreading tumor. The intramural hematoma was successfully treated non-surgically, resulting in complete recovery. In contrast to previously reported fatal outcomes, this case provides valuable clinical evidence that careful non-surgical management can achieve excellent results, highlighting an important strategy for endoscopists to avoid unnecessary invasive interventions.
