Description

Tomohiro Shimada and co-authors report an endoscopy case from 2026. A 74-year-old man had two early cancers in his esophagus. Both were removed in one session by endoscopic dissection.

After the second removal, the team found a large tear at the first site. Records showed a sudden rise in blood pressure, likely from coughing. The tear was closed from inside using a reopenable clip over a line. The report walks through the steps and the figures. Readers, mainly clinicians, learn a rescue method for a rare and dangerous tear during cancer removal.
