Diagnostic Yield of Tissue Sampling Using a Bite-On-Bite Technique for Incidental Subepithelial Lesions

Abstract

The bite-on-bite technique for subepithelial lesions is an effective and safe method in selected cases. This technique may be useful for incidental subepithelial lesions, especially those of the esophagus, except for ones with a high risk of bleeding or thick overlying epithelium.
