Tumors located in the pylorus are technically more complex to resect by endoscopic resection, as the anatomical characteristics of this region can affect the adequate assessment of margins and performance of the procedure. We reported the results of underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) of benign mucosal neoplasms located in the pyloric ring.
