Predicting and managing complications following colonoscopy: risk factors and management of advanced interventional endoscopy with a focus on colorectal ESD.

Predicting and managing complications following colonoscopy: risk factors and management of advanced interventional endoscopy with a focus on colorectal ESD. Expert Rev Med Devices. 2020 Sep 09;: Authors: Takamaru H, Goto R, Yamada M, Sakamoto T, Matsuda T, Saito Y Abstract INTRODUCTION: Colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been introduced widely in Western and Asian countries. The management of the perforation during ESD is crucial. AREAS COVERED: The rate of intraprocedural perforation, risk factors, prevention, and management of perforation during ESD and EMR were discussed in this review. The perforation rate in ESD and EMR depending on the lesion size is also discussed. EXPERT COMMENTARY: The knowledge regarding the risk factor and techniques to manage perforation is important during colorectal ESD and EMR. The development of novel suturing techniques devices is key for colorectal ESD in the future. PMID: 32901531 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
