Use of an endoscopic flexible grasper as a traction tool for excision of polyps: preclinical trial
Abstract Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is challenging in the right colon. Traction devices can make it technically easier. In this study, we evaluated a flexible grasper with articulating tip and elbow-like bending (IgE) through a double-balloon surgical platform (DESP), compared with an ea...
