Water pressure method for endoscopic submucosal dissection of a rectal tumor on the gravitational side close to the dentate line
Science and Technology Development Special Project of Jiangsu Provincial Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Adequate submucosal exposure and visibility are vital for effective and safe endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) [1]. For lesions located on the gravitational side, the mucosal flap tends to collapse as the dissection proceeds which hinders subsequent operation [2]. Position change for gravity assistance is usually preferred in this circumstance, but not always applicable [3]. In this case, we present use of the water pressure method (WPM) to facilitate ESD of a rectal tumor on the gravitational side close to the dentate line ([Video 1]).
