Core Tip
Core Tip: This study examined how endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) influences postoperative recovery and complications in early gastric cancer (EGC) or precancerous lesions (PCLs). Compared with laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, performing ESD for treating EGC and PCLs led to superior en bloc resection, shortened surgical incision length, intraoperative bleeding reduction, and shorter operative duration. Moreover, it effectively accelerated postoperative recovery, lowered complications, and improved serum tumor marker expression.
