In the first case, a 43-year-old male with ongoing dysphagia symptoms underwent a posterior poem procedure after a previous treatment. Dr. Sherma explains the importance of assessing the tunnel before proceeding with the procedure and shares tips on creating a wide tunnel for better maneuverability. He also discusses the challenges involved in entering the tunnel and highlights the use of a dry cut technique and the importance of hemostasis. In the second case, Dr. Sherma performs a submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STIR) for a 4.8 cm gist. He demonstrates the steps involved in creating a tunnel, dissecting around the lesion, and achieving adequate hemostasis. He concludes by mentioning the closure of the tunnel and the success of the procedure for this particular patient. No credits were granted in the video.
