Core Tip	Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was developed in Japan for curative resection of early cancer. But Western countries take very long without tutoring to establish ESD on a professional level. A two-fold, sequential learning curve is necessary for endoscopic staging, and for endoluminal surgery of early neoplasias. This will need a sequential strategy: (1) education for diagnostic skills in routine endoscopy and in educational programs; and (2) endoscopists proficient in endoscopic snaring techniques must train for ESD and pass an untutored learning curve to become proficient. Then, Western ESD experts must instruct endoscopists from referral centers in their country.
