What is Third Space Endoscopy?
Third space endoscopy (TSE) is a rapidly evolving and advancing area in the field of gastroenterology allowing for new minimally invasive treatment options for various gastrointestinal diseases including achalasia, refractory gastroparesis, subepithelial tumors and esophageal strictures.
Peroral endoscopic myotomy was the initial procedure performed utilising submucosal space in patients with achalasia. Subsequently, this kind of technique has been used successfully for removal of subepithelial tumors from the esophagus and the stomach.
What is the procedure ?
All TSE procedures use a similar technique. A submucosal tunnel is created, and then a myotomy is performed or a subepithelial tumor is dissected away from the initial site of the mucosal incision.
