Abstract:
Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) has been reported as effective endoscopic treatment for superficial duodenal epithelial tumors (SDETs). However, it has been reported that a notable problem of UEMR for SDETs is that en bloc resection rate is relatively low. Therefore, we proposed a novel technique to improve en bloc resection rate: UEMR combining partial submucosal injection (PI‐UEMR). The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of PI‐UEMR for SDETs by comparing to UEMR. Methods This is a retrospective observational study in a single center. The patients who underwent UEMR or PI‐UEMR from June 2010 to August 2020 were included in this study. Eligible patients were selected from included patients in a 1:1 ratio using propensity score matching. The clinical outcomes of endoscopic resection (procedure time, en bloc resection rate, complication rate [immediate perforation, delayed bleeding, delayed perforation]), and histopathological diagnosis (adenoma/cancer) were compared between each group. Results Two hundred and twenty‐eight patients were included in this study. Of included patients, 47 patients were selected in each group by propensity score matching. There were no statistical differences in procedure time (11 ± 1.2 min vs. 9 ± 1.2 min, P = 0.30), complication rate (immediate perforation [0% vs. 2%, P = 0.12], delayed bleeding [0% vs. 2%, P = 0.12], and no delayed perforation) and histopathological diagnosis (adenoma; 100% vs. 96%, P = 0.14) in each group. However, en bloc resection rate of PI‐UEMR was significantly higher than UEMR (96% vs. 83%, P 〈 0.05). Conclusion Partial submucosal injection UEMR might be superior procedure for en bloc resection in SDETs compare to UEMR.
