| Core Tip |
This study compares endoscopic submucosal dissection, submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection, and laparoscopic wedge resection for submucosal tumors originating from the muscularis propria at the esophagogastric junction and cardia. Despite technical challenges, all methods demonstrated safety, practicality, and high en bloc resection rates, with laparoscopic wedge resection showing superior microscopic complete resection. Recurrence rates were comparable across methods, even for high-risk gastrointestinal stromal tumors. These findings underscore the feasibility of minimally invasive approaches for treating submucosal tumors in challenging anatomical locations, advancing diagnostic precision and treatment efficacy while minimizing patient burden. |
