Key Words	Superficial esophageal cancer; Endoscopic mucosal resection; Endoscopic submucosal dissection; Meta-analysis
Core Tip	This meta-analysis was performed on the basis of previously published reports aiming to compare endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) in treating superficial esophageal cancer. Eight studies involving 1081 patients were analyzed. Of those, 448 lesions were treated by ESD and 744 were treated by EMR. Compared with EMR, ESD had significantly higher overall en bloc and curative resection rates, and lower local recurrence rate. There was no significant difference in the complication rate between the two methods.
