Strategies to successfully complete complex ESD in the colon
Introduction
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is challenging in the colon. Lesions with fibrosis and located in diverticular areas add extra technical difficulty [1] [2] [3].
We describe the case of a 71-year-old woman with a sigma 20-mm nongranular, laterally spreading tumor (LST NG) with a type Vi pit pattern and NICE 2, surrounded by diverticula and in contact with a tattoo ([Fig. 1] and [Fig. 2]). A tattoo close to a lesion can make its resection even harder [4].
