Abstract
For resection of SMTs from muscularis propria, the conventional surgery or endoscopic snared resection carries a high risk of perforation that breaks the barrier between the digestive lumen and the extraluminal cavity, which can make intraluminal contents enter outside into the extraluminal cavity. This is the immediate cause of death in patients. And tunnel technique is created to solve the problem of perforation for resection of SMTs. In this chapter, anatomy of the esophageal and the gastric wall and classification and growth pattern of SMTs from muscularis propria are first described and then detailed application of tunnel technique for resection of SMTs from muscularis propria are introduced.
