Core Tip	Endoscopic ablation of precancerous lesions is widely accepted in the luminal gastrointestinal tract. In unresectable gastrointestinal malignancy, the palliative role of endoscopic ablation is growing. Recently, the prospect of endoscopic ablation is expanding to include downstaging previously unresectable disease, as well as contributing to non-surgical complete clinical response as an adjunct therapy. The prospect for synergy in improving overall survival while balancing the quest for organ and function preservation warrants methodical investigations.
