In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) have both been reported to be two effective treatment methods for small rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NET). However, there is no consensus on the best method for the endoscopic resection of rectal NET. Therefore, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of UEMR and ESD for the treatment of small rectal NET.
