Isolated exfoliation method of gastric endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) as a new technique has not yet reached the popularity of the conventional EMR techniques. From the results of a questionnaire about EMR in the stomach, the isolated exfoliation method has the advantage of permitting en bloc and histologically complete resection regardless of lesion size. However, this method has the disadvantage of long performance time and high frequency of complication as well as the need for a high level of technical skill. New devices and ideas are needed for the development of the isolated exfoliation method.
