Endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of tumors

Introduction

As in previous years, this topic overlaps with a number of the other topics reviewed in this series. Thus, the focus in this paper will again be gastric tumors, since the esophagus, small and large bowel, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are covered elsewhere.

The vast majority of the presented papers reported on various aspects of gastric endoscopic mucosal resection and submucosal dissection (EMR and ESD), separately or in combination. Although there is still a preponderance of data from the Far East, an increasing number of western centers have taken up these techniques, so the experience reported from eastern experts is increasingly relevant even in Europe. Again, a number of these studies report data from the esophagus and the colon, and are dealt with elsewhere.
