Key clinical point: In patients with early gastric cancer or gastric adenoma, the curative resection rate with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for lesions sized ≥5 cm is approximately two-thirds of that for lesions <5 cm; however, delayed perforation is more common in the former.
Major finding: In patients with ≥5 and <5 cm lesions, the curative resection rates were 65.6% and 91.5%, respectively, with the rate of delayed perforation being significantly higher in the former (1.6% and 0.1%, respectively; P = .019).
Study details: This multicenter retrospective study included 3410 ESD-treated gastric lesions in patients aged ≥20 years with early gastric cancer or gastric adenoma and categorized them according to lesion size: <5 cm (n = 3282) and ≥5 cm (n = 128).
Disclosures: This study received no external funding. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
