Core Tip
Core Tip: This meta-analysis compares Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) and Transanal Endoscopic Surgery (TES) for rectal tumours, focusing on recurrence rates, resection efficacies, and procedural outcomes. Our findings reveal no significant differences in recurrence or resection rates between ESD and TES, highlighting their comparable efficacies. However, the methods differ in anaesthesia requirements, impacting patient experience and recovery. With substantial heterogeneity in study designs and patient populations, our analysis underscores the need for standardized multicentric studies. This comprehensive comparison provides crucial insights for clinicians in selecting the most appropriate surgical technique based on tumour characteristics, patient profiles, and institutional resources.
