Abstract:Objective To study the therapeutic effect of rectal neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) under different endoscopy surgeries.Methods From January 2014 to January 2020, 86 patients diagnosed as rectal NEN by white light enteroscopy and pathological biopsy were collected for retrospective clinical analysis. Among them, 23 patients were resected by endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), 49 patients by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), and 14 patients by endoscopic full thickness resection (EFR). The size of lesion, resection area, preoperative ultrasound depth, duration of surgery, resection size of lesion, length of hospital stay, one-time lump-resection rate, one-time R0 complete resection rate, positive rate of lateral resection margin and basal resection margin, incidence of concurrent bleeding and perforation, and 3-year survival rate were recorded and evaluated in 3 groups.Results The lesion resection area of EMR group, ESD group and EFR group (100.00 mm2, 240.00 mm2 and 320.00 mm2, P < 0.05)significantly increased. Operation time [(20.04 ± 6.44) min, (46.35 ± 8.76) min and (54.21 ± 7.65) min, P < 0.05] significantly increased. The postoperative hospital stay [(2.17 ± 0.42) d, (4.40 ± 0.90) d and (5.07 ± 0.68) d, P < 0.05] significantly increased. However, there were no significant differences in R0 resection, vascular infiltration, lymphatic infiltration, nerve invasion, vertical resection margin, CD56 expression, CgA expression and postoperative complications (P > 0.05).Conclusion For NEN patients with no lymph node metastasis less than 10 mm in diameter located in rectum, it can be safely resected by endoscopy. The resection methods can be EMR, ESD and EFR. EMR is relatively simple, and the operation time and postoperative hospital stay are significantly shorter than ESD and EFR. EFR has a successful overall resection and histological resection rate, which may be superior to traditional EMR and ESD, but the operation time and postoperative hospital stay are significantly higher than ESD and EMR. However, there is no significant difference in the curative resection (R0 resection), postoperative complications and follow-up survival rate among the three methods.
