Abstract Background This study aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of endoscopic hand-suturing (EHS) and attainability of sustained closure after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Methods EHS was defined as uninterrupted endoscopic suturing of the mucosal defect after colorectal ESD using an absorbable barbed suture and a through-the-scope needle holder. Following individual EHS training using an ex vivo porcine colonic model, two experienced endoscopists performed EHS. Repeat colonoscopy was performed on the third or fourth day after ESD to examine the EHS site. The primary end point was the complete EHS closure rate, and secondary end points were sustained closure and post-ESD bleeding rates. Results 11 lesions were included. Median size of the mucosal defect was 38 mm (range 25 – 55 mm) and the lesion characteristics were as follows: lower rectum/upper rectum/ascending colon/cecum = 3/3/2/3, and 0-IIa/0-Is + IIa/others = 5/4/2. EHS was not attempted in two patients owing to difficulty in colonoscope reinsertion after ESD and intraoperative perforation, respectively. EHS was performed for nine lesions, and the complete EHS closure rate was 73 %. Median procedure time for suturing was 56 minutes (range 30 – 120 minutes) and median number of stitches was 8 (range 6 – 12). Sustained closure and post-ESD bleeding rates were 64 % and 9 %, respectively. Conclusions EHS achieved complete and sustained closure in the colorectum. However, EHS is not currently clinically applicable given the long procedure time. Further modifications of the technique and devices are desirable.

Abstract Background and study aims Severe fibrosis poses a challenge in colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Recently, the pocket-creation method (PCM) has been developed for overcoming various difficulties of ESD. A specific tapered hood is used for adequate traction in the PCM, and endoscopic operability becomes stable in the pocket. In this study, we investigated the efficacy of the PCM in ESD for cases with severe fibrosis. Patients and methods We retrospectively reviewed 1000 consecutive colorectal ESD cases (April 2006 to January 2017). Since 2016, the PCM was performed in 58 cases. The indications for ESD included (1) tumors ≥ 20 mm in size diagnosed as intramucosal cancer or high-grade dysplasia and part of T1a cancer using magnifying endoscopic examinations and (2) tumors that appeared impossible to resect with endoscopic mucosal resection because of suspected fibrosis. We identified 120 cases with severe fibrosis and compared them to cases without severe fibrosis. Additionally, the 120 severe fibrosis cases were divided into the PCM and non-PCM groups. En bloc resection, procedure time, discontinuation, and complications were analyzed between these 2 groups. Results Among all 1000 ESDs, severe fibrosis and discontinuation rates were 12.0 % (120 cases) and 1.8 % (18 cases), respectively. Regarding the comparison between cases with severe fibrosis and with no severe fibrosis, there were significant differences about en bloc resection rate (78.3 % vs. 95.7 %, P < 0.001), discontinuance rate (12.5 % vs. 0.3 %, P < 0.001), and perforation rate (8.3 % vs. 2.6 %, P = 0.001). Among the 120 cases with severe fibrosis, 21 and 99 cases were in the PCM and non-PCM groups, respectively. The PCM group had a higher en bloc resection rate (95.2 vs. 74.7, P =  0.03), a shorter mean procedure time (min) (79.6 ± 26.5 vs. 118.8 ± 71.0, P = 0.001), and no cases of discontinuation. An analysis of the interobserver agreement for the diagnosis of severe fibrosis among the 3 endoscopists showed kappa values of > 0.6. Conclusions In cases with severe fibrosis, the PCM with ESD improved en bloc resection rates and shortened the procedure time compared to the conventional non-PCM method. Additionally, the PCM reduced the discontinuation rate.

Abstract Background and study aims Colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is technically challenging owing to submucosal fibrosis and difficult endoscope manipulation. Therefore, various traction methods have been reported. We often use a simple looped nylon thread attached to a clip to assist with dissection. We assessed the feasibility of mentor-guided colorectal ESD using this traction device (TD). Patients and methods From December 2017 to March 2018, we retrospectively reviewed outcomes of 101 colorectal ESDs performed by two groups of endoscopists (A, 5 endoscopists with colorectal ESD experience of < 50 cases; B, 5 endoscopists with experience of > 300 cases). Group A was further divided into two subgroups that performed ESD with or without TD. Results No significant difference was observed in ESD completion rates (86.1 % [62/72] vs. 96.6 % [28/29]; odds ratio [OR], 0.22; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 0.005 – 1.71; P = 0.17) or procedure times (52.0 min vs. 40.0 min; P = 0.27) and adverse event rates between groups A and B. The rate of TD use was significantly higher in group A than in group B (44.4 % [32/72] vs. 20.7 % [6/29]; OR, 3.03; CI, 1.04 – 10.23; P = 0.03). The completion rate was not different between the two subgroups of group A (with vs. without TD) (81.2 % [26/32] vs. 90.0 % [36/40]; OR, 0.49; CI, 0.09 – 2.29; P = 0.32); however, the proportion of fibrosis cases was significantly higher in the TD-use group (46.8 % [15/32] vs. 22.5 % [9/40]; OR, 2.99; CI, 0.98 – 9.59; P = 0.03). Conclusion Mentor-guided colorectal ESD using TD was performed efficiently, safely, and in a manner comparable to that of experts.
