Ligation-assisted endoscopic submucosal resection with circumferential mucosal incision for duodenal carcinoid tumor

Here we present the case of a 64-year-old female with a duodenal carcinoid tumor treated by ligation-assisted endoscopic submucosal resection(ESMR-L) with circumferential mucosal incision(CMI). Band ligation was effective in resecting the duodenal carcinoid tumor after CMI,with an uneventful post-pr...

Description
Summary:Here we present the case of a 64-year-old female with a duodenal carcinoid tumor treated by ligation-assisted endoscopic submucosal resection(ESMR-L) with circumferential mucosal incision(CMI). Band ligation was effective in resecting the duodenal carcinoid tumor after CMI,with an uneventful post-procedural course. Histopathological examination showed clear tumor margins at deeper tissue levels. Thus,in the present case,ESMR-L with CMI was useful for the treatment of duodenal carcinoid tumor.
