Abstract

Background & Aims: Surgery is the standard treatments for neoplasms located on squamous-columner junction (SCJ), and recently endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and/or photodynamic therapy (PDT) are also used for early stage neoplasms located on SCJ. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a newly developed technique in the field of endoscopic treatment for gastrointestinal neoplasms because of its high rate of en-bloc resection. We applied ESD for superficial neoplasm located on SCJ. Methods: Twenty-four lesions of superficial adenocarcinoma located on SCJ from 23 patients were treated with ESD between June 2001 and January 2006 at NCCH.
