Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is technically one of the most complicated endoscopic procedures. Traction methods have been reported to be effective for ESD. A recent study revealed that the S-O clip allowed faster and safer colonic ESD. We assessed the efficacy and safety of gastric ESD with the S-O clip for gastric epithelial neoplasm.

Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients treated for gastric ESD using the S-O clip between September and November 2016 (SO group, n = 48). The subjects were matched with patients treated with conventional gastric ESD from September 2015 to August 2016 (control group, n = 258) at Sendai Kousei Hospital, a tertiary endoscopic center. The primary outcome was procedure time. Multivariate logistic regression and propensity score matching analyses were performed to reduce the effects of selection bias for potential confounding factors differences like age, sex, lesion location, lesion position, presence of ulcer scarring, resected specimen size, and operator experiences.

Results: Forty-eight pairs were created after propensity score matching. The mean procedure time (including the S-O clip attachment time) was significantly shorter in the SO group (47.2 ± 24.6 vs. 69.2 ± 67.1 min, p = 0.035). The mean clip attachment time was 4.4 (range 2-15) min. There were no significant differences in other treatment outcomes (en-bloc resection rate: 100 vs. 100%, p = 1.000; perforation rate: 0 vs. 2.1%, p = 0.315; delayed bleeding rate: 2.1 vs. 4.3%, p = 0.558).

Conclusions: The S-O clip improved the speed of gastric ESD by approximately 25%, without increasing adverse events.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assessed the effectiveness of the spring-and-loop with clip (S-O clip) in gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) by comparing outcomes in 290 patients with early gastric neoplasms who did and did not use the clip.
  • Results indicated that patients using the S-O clip had significantly shorter procedure times (44.4 minutes vs. 61.1 minutes) and higher complete resection rates (97.9% vs. 92.6%) compared to those without the clip.
  • The findings suggest that the S-O clip enhances efficiency and outcomes in ESD, particularly benefiting less experienced endoscopists during procedures.

Background/aims: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for superficial non-ampullary duodenal tumors (SNADETs) is associated with a high rate of en bloc resection. However, the technique for ESD remains challenging. Recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of S-O clips in colonic and gastric ESD.

Introduction: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) allows the en bloc resection of colorectal epithelial tumors regardless of size. Although ESD is minimally invasive and yields favorable outcomes, it is technically difficult and requires a long procedure time. In addition, colorectal ESD is associated with a particularly high risk of complications, due to the thin bowel wall, bowel flexion, and peristalsis.
