Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of resection (EMR) of gastrointestinal tumors by EUS assisted with high-frequency probe EUS (HFPE). Methods EMR assisted with HFPE was attempted in 30 patients with gastrointestinal tumors with 0. 5 - 3. 5 cm in diameter. Complications such as bleeding and perforation were carefully monitored. The entire resected specimen received histopathological examination. Follow-up was regularly taken in outpatient clinic. Results In 28 (93. 3% )out of 30 patients tumors were successfully resected by EMR. 95. 2% cancerous and 85. 7% tumorous lesions were resected satisfactorily. No severe bleeding or perforation occurred nor had any recurrences be observed when follow-up of 2 ~ 13 months. Conclusion EMR assisted with HFPE is a safe and desired measure in the treatment of early small gastrointestinal tumors.
