Development of a Swine Benign Esophageal Stricture Model: Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection and Radiofrequency Ablation

초록

Background / aims: Benign esophageal stricture (BES) is a challenging disease frequently encountered in clinical practice and various endoscopic treatments are being tried and developed. Therefore, a large animal BES model is needed for developing new device and endoscopic treatment. The purpose of this study is to develop swine BES model using radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) and to compare two methods.
