We are now finding more malignancies in their early stages than previously. Attempts to ablate these lesions are difficult and do not provide the histological information required to decide on further treatment. Surgery is difficult to justify, as only a minority of lesions are associated with lymph node metastases and lesions may not become clinically

Endoscopic Mucosal Resection [PDF]
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is a promising therapeutic option for removal of superficial carcinomas or premalignant lesions throughout the gastrointestinal tract. This review discusses indications and the several techniques of EMR in early tumors of esophagus, stomach, duodenum, and colon. EMR is not yet widely utilized in the West.

Endoscopic mucosal resection [PDF]
EMR has become an established therapeutic option for premalignant and early-stage GI malignancies, particularly in the esophagus and colon. EMR can also aid in the diagnosis and therapy of subepithelial lesions localized to the muscularis mucosa or submucosa. Several dedicated EMR devices are available to facilitate these procedures.
