Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), and explore the efficacy of endoscopic treatment in patients with esophageal submucosal tumor. Methods Sixty-eight patients with esophageal submucosal tumor were selected, and the tumor was derived from the muscularis mucosa and submucosa according to the common endoscope and endoscopic ultrasonography detection. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) was applied to remove submucosal tumor with diameter less than 1.0 cm, endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection (EPMR) or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was applied to remove submucosal tumor with diameter 1.1 - 1.5 cm, and ESD was applied to remove submucosal tumor bigger than 1.5 cm. Samples were examined by pathology after treatment. Results Tumors in all the patients were completely removed, and the tumor diameter was 0.6-2.3 cm. Forty-one cases were treated with EMR, 9 cases were treated with EPMR and 18 cases were treated with ESD. Four patients had intra-operative bleeding that was stopped by electrocoagulation hemostasis. No perforation occurred in all cases. Postoperative pathology revealed 43 cases had leiomyoma, 23 cases had interstitialoma, and 2 cases had lipoma. Patients were reviewed by gastroscope 3 months after operation. The white scars formed in all patients, and there was no residue or recurrence. Conclusions Different origin layers and property of esophageal submucosal tumor can be diagnosed accurately by EUS, and endoscopic therapy (EMR, EPMR and ESD) is an effective treatment for submucosal tumor from muscularis mucosa and submucosa. Endoscopic therapy is safe and effective. It provides sufficient pathological information.
