Abstract
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an established technique for the treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC). ESD has an advantage over endoscopic mucosal resection as it allows the removal of larger lesions in an en bloc fashion. Liver cirrhosis has been associated with an increased incidence of bleeding with surgical intervention. In this meta-analysis, we aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of ESD for EGC when performed in patients with concomitant liver cirrhosis.
