Protruded polyps can usually be treated with conventional polypectomy technique. Slightly elevated lesions without malignant findings are treated with hot biopsy method if they are small enough (less than 5 mm). In order to treat flat or slightly depressed lesions or slightly elevated lesions larger than 5 mm, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) technique has been invented. Cancers confined to the mucosa or those only minimally invading the submucosa can be completely removed with this method. However, if histological analysis of the resected specimen shows that the cancer invades the submucosa massively or permeating the vessels, surgical treatment should be added, because otherwise there would be risk of cancer residue or metastasis. When a lesion is suspected to be a submucosal cancer by endoscopic findings and pit pattern analysis from the beginning, then surgical resection is the treatment of choice. Laterally spreading tumors, especially the homogeneous granular type, are good indication for EMR or endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection (EPMR). It is important to remove the lesion completely confirming that the resection margin is covered with normal pits.
