With technical advances in endoscopic submucosal dissection ( ESD ), several variations of endoscopic procedure derived from ESD and fusion procedures of endoscopy and laparoscopy for upper gastrointestinal submucosal tumor and cancer have recently been developed. The former includes endoscopic muscularis dissection ( EMD ), submucosal endoscopic tumor resection ( SET ), endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection ( ESTD ) and endoscopic full‐thickness resection ( EFTR ), and the latter includes laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery ( LECS ), laparoscopy‐assisted endoscopic full‐thickness resection ( LAEFR ), and laparoscopic lymphadenectomy without gastrectomy following ESD . In the present article, recent developments in gastric ESD and advanced procedures derived from ESD are discussed.
