Abstrakt: This article, published in the journal Endoscopy, examines the endoscopic features associated with the presence of superficial submucosal invasion (SMI) in colorectal laterally spreading tumors (LSTs). The study analyzed 459 LSTs and classified them into three phenotypes: granular (G), granular mixed (GM), and non-granular (NG). The results showed that NG-LSTs had a higher overall risk of SMI compared to GM-LSTs and G-LSTs, regardless of their location. Additionally, the Kudo pit pattern was identified as an independent risk factor for SMI in both NG-LSTs and GM-LSTs. The study emphasizes the importance of accurate optical diagnosis for stratifying SMI risk and selecting appropriate treatment for these lesions. [Extracted from the article]
