Video Tip: Traction Wire Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection-Tips and Techniques from 4 Institutions

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video sponsored by Braintree, introduces the traction wire for ESD procedures. The wire retracts and lifts mucosa to expose submucosa during procedures like rectal and esophageal ESDs. Different teaching points are highlighted like the importance of a full circumferential incision, proper placement of anchoring clips, and avoiding overstretching the wire. Examples include rectal ESDs performed by Dr. Ahmed Batt and Dr. Neil Sharma and esophageal ESD by Dr. Ju-Ha Wang. Lastly, a gastric ESD by Dr. Waxman is shown to emphasize the significance of changing the angle of retraction by adjusting the positioning of anchoring clips. Overall, the traction wire aids in effective retraction throughout the ESD procedure.
