Abstract

This article, published in the journal Endoscopy, discusses a new technique called "topflight endoscopic submucosal dissection" (ESD) for the resection of gastric fundus tumors. The technique involves creating a tunnel from the distal esophagus and dissecting the fundus submucosa through the tunnel. The article describes two cases in which this technique was used successfully to resect fundus tumors. The patients were discharged the following day without any symptoms. The article suggests that this technique could be considered as an option for similar cases in the future. [Extracted from the article]
