Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a promising method for achieving complete resection of large superficial duodenal lesions [1]. However, post-ESD wound management is crucial for patient outcomes. If left open, the wound may lead to delayed bleeding, perforation, or infection due to gastric acid, bile, and pancreatic juice. For large wounds, endoscopic metal clip closure or hand-suturing closure alone is often ineffective, while laparoscopic closure increases trauma. This study introduces a novel method combining endoscopic hand suturing with metal clip closure ([Video 1]).
Demonstration of endoscopic hand-suturing combined with clip closure for the large duodenal descending wound.Video 1The case involves a high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia in the duodenal descending part, situated just below the papilla and predominantly involving the posterior and both lateral walls ([Fig. 1] a). After obtaining informed consent, ESD was performed ([Fig. 1] b). Post-ESD, the wound measured approximately 8 cm × 6 cm ([Fig. 1] c). The resected specimen measured 8 cm × 5.7 cm ([Fig. 1] d). Initially, endoscopic hand-suturing was used to reduce the wound size to a manageable dimension for metal clip closure ([Fig. 1] e–g). Subsequently, metal clips were applied to reinforce the closure, effectively reducing tension and achieving secure wound closure ([Fig. 1] h). The resected specimen’s pathology confirmed R0 resection. The ESD procedure took 158 minutes, the endoscopic suturing took 58 minutes, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 14 without complications.


This study is the first to report the use of endoscopic hand-suturing combined with metal clip closure for a large duodenal descending part wound post-ESD. This approach offers a feasible alternative to laparoscopic closure, reducing surgical time and trauma while avoiding excessive.
