Topical endoscopic methods for the removal of laterally spreading tumors - LST of the colon; [Актуальные эндоскопические методы удаления латерально распространяющихся (стелющихся) опухолей - LST (laterally spreading tumor) толстой кишки]

The aim: to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic removal of laterally spreading tumors - LST of the colon by pEMR. Materials and methods: analysis of data obtained during endoscopic treatment of colon LST and dynamic observation of patients. Results: after analyzing and systematizing the data obtained, the advantages and disadvantages of pEMR for colon LST removal are clarified. Conclusion: if the correct technique of performing pEMR is observed, visual assessment of the completeness of resection and subsequent careful dynamic observation, removal of LST of the colon by pEMR is effective and safe, and can be used in conditions of unavailability of the ESD technique. © 2022 Global Media Technologies.
