Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a gastrointestinal malignancy that seriously threatens human life and health, resulting in a heavy disease burden. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used in clinical practice and is an effective treatment for early CRC (ECC). Colorectal ESD is a challenging operation, and the incidence of postoperative complications is relatively high because of the thin intestinal wall and limited space for endoscopic operations. Systematic reports on the postoperative complications of colorectal ESD, such as fever, bleeding and perforation, from both China and elsewhere are lacking. In the present review, progress in research on postoperative complications after ESD for ECC is summarized.
