Endoscopic submucosal dissection for early esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after ligation and sclerotherapy of esophageal and gastric varices.

Esophageal cancer ranked ten of the most common cancers in China. With the advancement of high-quality endoscopy and chromoendoscopic technique, early esophageal cancer can be diagnosed more easily, even combined with esophageal-gastric fundal varices. Endoscopic resection of early esophageal cancer is a minimally invasive treatment method for early esophageal cancer, and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is one of the standard treatments for early esophageal cancer in view of the risk of bleeding, the patient in this study successfully received ESD treatment after using endoscopic variceal ligation and endoscopic injection of tissue glue and sclerosing agent before ESD surgery. ESD treatment is safe and feasible for early esophageal cancer patients with cirrhosis of esophageal-gastric fundal varices.
