Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with a knife is a technically demanding procedure that is associated with a high complication rate. The shortcoming of this method is the difficulty in fixing the knife to the target lesion. This difficulty can lead to unexpected incision, resulting in major complications such as perforation and bleeding. To reduce the risk of complications related to ESD, we developed a new grasping type scissors forceps (GSF), which can grasp and incise the targeted tissue using an electrosurgical current. The ESD procedure using the GSF was carried out in an animal model (resected porcine stomachs in vitro). After marking the lesion and injecting a solution into the submucosa, the lesion was separated from the surrounding normal mucosa following complete incision around the lesion using the GSF. A piece of submucosal tissue was grasped and cut with the GSF using an electrosurgical current to achieve submucosal exfoliation. ESD using the GSF was carried out safely and easily without unintentional incision. ESD using GSF appears to be an easy, safe, and technically efficient method for resecting gastrointestinal neoplasms.
