Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses the use of a modified semicosal tunneling endoscopic resection technique for the successful removal of a large semicosal leiomyoma in the gastric fundus. The procedure involves combining parallel endoscopic myotomy and semicosal dissection techniques to remove gastrointestinal subepithelial lesions. The modified technique includes making proximal and distal mucosal incisions to facilitate dissection and retrieval of the lesion, addressing challenges faced with conventional STIR procedures. The case presentation highlights the advantages of the modified STIR technique in achieving complete excision and closure of the defect. This technique offers a promising alternative for challenging anatomical locations like the gastric fundus.
