ASGE Annual Postgraduate Course: Clinical Challenges and Real-Time Decision Making in GI Endoscopy (Live and Virtual)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, a panel of experts discuss various topics related to endoscopic resection strategies for carcinoids and other gastrointestinal lesions. They discuss the challenges of utilizing techniques such as endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and transanal submucosal dissection (TSD), which can often result in positive margins due to desmoplastic reactions. They also explore the role of endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) in smaller lesions, particularly in the duodenum. The speakers also touch upon the pathway for learning third space endoscopy, emphasizing the importance of commitment and ongoing learning. They discuss various aspects of high-quality exams for detecting gastric dysplasia, intestinal metaplasia, and Barrett's esophagus. The video concludes with a Q&A session addressing questions on dilation protocols and biopsy sampling techniques.
