Comparison between interrupted closure technique and traditional closure technique in endoscopic full-thickness resection for treating gastric subepithelial lesions

Figure 1 Resection of gastric submucosal lesions by interrupted closure in endoscopic full-thickness resection. A: The gastric subepithelial lesion in the gastric body was initially detected by endoscopy; B: A full-thickness incision around two-thirds circumferential of the lesion; C: The metallic clips closure were performed at the proximal of the wound surface; D: The wound was completely sutured with metal clips.
