ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Proper traction allows safer and easier endoscopic submucosal dissection; however, single-point traction may not be sufficient. In this study we assessed the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of our newly developed multipoint traction device.METHODS:
During an ex vivo study using a Konjac training model, two experts and two trainees resected 80 mock lesions of 20-mm diameter by performing endoscopic submucosal dissection with and without multipoint traction. The primary outcome was the success rate of the procedure involving traction. The secondary outcomes were the submucosal dissection time, dissection speed, and perforation during endoscopic submucosal dissection. During the in vivo study, to clarify the initial clinical outcomes, we used data from the electronic medical record of patients at our institution who underwent gastric and colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection, which was performed by experts with our newly developed multipoint traction device, from March to December 2022.RESULTS:
The ex vivo study indicated that all traction procedures were successful. Higher resection speeds were observed with endoscopic submucosal dissection with traction than without traction (P < 0.001). Perforations were not observed. During the first in vivo clinical study, traction was feasible during 20 gastric and colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection procedures. No adverse events occurred.CONCLUSIONS:
Our multitraction device can increase the submucosal dissection speed and simplify endoscopic submucosal dissection techniques, thus safely reducing technical challenges. The application of this device for endoscopic submucosal dissection could lead to safer and more efficient procedures.
