Abstract
Esophagogastric cancer accounts for the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Significant efforts have been made to detect these malignancies at an earlier stage through the implementation of screening programs in high-risk individuals using advanced diagnostic techniques. Endoscopic management techniques, such as endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection, have consistently demonstrated excellent outcomes in the management of these lesions. These techniques are associated with a lower risk of morbidity and mortality when compared with traditional surgical management.Entities:
