Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) is the procedure of removal of abnormal tissues and lesions in the mucosa (the innermost lining of the oesophagus which extends through the gastrointestinal tract).
Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) is a procedure in which an endoscope is guided through the digestive tract to remove the abnormal tissues and lesions in the mucosa (the innermost lining of the oesophagus which extends through the gastro intestinal tract).
This technique enables location, removal and examination of these tissues with minimal invasion. EMR may be also be used to detect precancerous or early cancer lesions and determine whether mucosa is invaded by cancer lesions.

Your doctor will ask the following:
Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) is generally carried out as an outpatient procedure by an experience surgical gastroenterologist.
Commoly following is the approach:
Clear liquids are given on the day of the surgery. Gradually semi solid diet will be introduced. For next 1 to 2 days you may have a sore throat or cramps.
There is risk of excessive bleeding during the procedure. The wall of the digestive tract may get perforated during resection, especially when the lesion is a large one. Scarring may occur, which narrows the oesophagus and causes difficulty in swallowing.
If the lesion fails to elevate above the surrounding mucosa, it is a clear indicator of sub mucosal invasion of cancerous cells.
