Core Tip

Core Tip: We retrospectively analyzed 375 colorectal laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) at our hospital between January 2016 and December 2023. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors for high-grade dysplasia/carcinoma, submucosal invasion and complications. The novel nomogram incorporated tumor size, location, and morphology for predicting high-grade dysplasia/carcinoma during endoscopic resection for LSTs. Multivariate analysis indicated that LST non-granular pseudo depressed type lesions larger than 20 mm had a significantly higher probability of submucosal invasion. Additionally, tumor size ≥ 30 mm emerged as a critical predictor of complications.
