Résumé

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is challenging because of the limited ability of conventional endoscopic tools to achieve adequate traction. We have recently used a novel steerable grasper (SG; ANUBIS grasper, Karl Storz, Tüttlingen, Germany) with intuitive manipulating handles to lift up the mucosa. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the assistance of the SG in a porcine acute model.
