Safety and feasibility of same-day discharge after esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection
Endoscopic submucosal dissection is used for treating early luminal GI cancers. SDD is the standard of care in Asia, where it results in multiday admissions for observation. Of 96 patients undergoing a total of 140 ESDs, 85 were SDD versus 55 admissions. An experienced endoscopist can determine if SDD can be considered.
