[Endoscopic resection with polypectomy snare and argon plasma coagulation in early gastric adenocarcinoma in a patient at high surgical risk]

Abstract

We report a patient at high surgical risk with an early gastric adenocarcinoma. Due to the size of the tumor, endoscopic mucosal resection alone was not feasible and consequently a combination of endoscopic resection with polypectomy snare and argon plasma coagulation was applied. Four years later the patient remains asymptomatic.
