Background: Albeit, effective for treatment of early neoplasm, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) can be technically demanding and time consuming. Furthermore, use of multiple instruments if often mandatory for performing various steps associated with the procedure. Hence, we aimed to design, create and evaluate a new instrument for ESD, the "Endo-Dissector".
