Objective:

To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a novel closure technique in preventing post-endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PEECS) compared to conventional methods.

Key Findings:
  • The incidence of PEECS was significantly lower in the mucomuscular closure group (2.5%) compared to the conventional closure group (15.0%, P < 0.001).
  • No severe adverse events (SAEs) occurred in the mucomuscular closure group.
  • In the conventional closure group, two patients experienced delayed perforation and two had delayed bleeding.
  • No TTSC-related perforation occurred during defect closure.
Interpretation:

Mucomuscular closure using through-the-scope clips effectively reduces the incidence of PEECS and other postoperative complications following C-ESD.

Limitations:
  • The study was conducted at a single center, which may limit the generalizability of the findings.
  • The sample size for the mucomuscular closure group may not be large enough to fully assess long-term outcomes and potential biases.
Conclusion:

Mucomuscular closure with TTSC is a promising technique for preventing complications associated with C-ESD, warranting further investigation in larger, multi-center studies.
