Retrospective comparison of precutting endoscopic band ligation and endoscopic submucosal dissection for small gastric muscularis propria tumors

Figure 3 Procedure for endoscopic submucosal dissection and precutting endoscopic band ligation. A: Preoperative endoscopic view of submucosal tumors originating from the muscularis propria (black arrow); B: Endoscopic ultrasonography view (orange arrow); C: The “clipping closure” procedure in endoscopic submucosal dissection; D: Specimen resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection; E: Five-year endoscopic follow-up after endoscopic submucosal dissection under standard endoscopy; F: Preoperative endoscopic view (black arrow); G: A hypoechoic submucosal tumors originating from the muscularis propria in the gastric fundus (orange arrow) detected by endoscopic ultrasonography; H: The exposed tumor was fully aspirated into the cap; I: The exposed tumor was ligated by band ligation; J: Endoscopic follow-up.
