A 69-year-old female complained of epigastric pain of 6 months' duration. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a transversal submucosal tumor (SMT) in the lower esophagus. Subsequently, endoscopic ultrasonography showed a hypoechoic lesion (25 mm x 12 mm) originating from the muscularis propria layer.

Background: Ultra-low rectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) presents technical challenges due to anatomical features. The objective of this research was to determine the risk factors linked to unsuccessful curative resections and to create a nomogram predictive model to assess the likelihood of encountering technical challenges.
Methods: Patients with ultra-low rectal tumors received ESD form June 2017 to December 2022 were retrospectively enrolled.

The term "gossypiboma" or "textiloma" is used to describe a mass of retained cotton matrix and the surrounding inflammatory response inside a body cavity following surgical intervention. The precise incidence of this phenomenon is uncertain, as cases are frequently underreported due to concerns related to medical malpractice. This rare complication poses a diagnostic dilemma due to the non-specific clinical and radiological features, which can result in significant morbidity and mortality.
