Abstract

Endoscopic laser treatment has been tried for hemostasis, relief of stenosis and reduction of tumor volume in advanced upper gastrointestinal cancer. This form of treatment was found to be effective for each purpose, but success was usually only temporary. Thus, it was considered that endoscopic laser therapy for problems of advanced upper GI cancer could perhaps be improved by modifying the technique and/or developing new methods, such as the combination of the laser with other therapies.
