Abstract

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for gastric cancer is widely performed in worldwide, and the ulcers developed after ESD are usually treated with proton pump inhibitor (PPI). Several studies have been reported regarding use period of PPI for these ulcers, however 2 weeks (w) PPI administration has not been well studied yet. Esomeprazole (EPZ) is enantiomer of omeprazole. The treatment effect of EPZ for artificial ulcer is unclear. We aimed to clarify the effect of EPZ for the ulcer healing after ESD, and we compared healing effect between 2 w and 4w EPZ treatment for the artificial ulcer.
