Efficacy of Overtube in Preventing Aspiration Pneumonia During Esophageal Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Aspiration pneumonia is a potential adverse event of esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Using an overtube during esophageal ESD may reduce the amount of fluid refluxing into the oral cavity and prevent aspiration pneumonia. This study aimed to clarify the preventive effects of overtubes on aspiration pneumonia during
