Abstract

Background and study aims Mapping of pathologic specimens after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is common practice in Asian countries, especially in Japan. However, there is a lack of awareness for this technique in Europe. In this report, we demonstrate the feasibility and benefits of topographic mapping in a Western setting.
