Before and after gel immersion endoscopic mucosal resection (GI-EMR) for the removal of Brunner’s gland hyperplasia. a On the day of GI-EMR, a 30-mm pedunculated submucosal tumor of the duodenal bulb was identified near the pylorus. b 100 mL of gel filled the lumen and retention was good. c The gel in the duodenal bulb made the tumor float, allowing snaring while checking the origin of the stem. d The gel filling also facilitated clipping by floating the wound edges. e The size of the resected specimen was approximately 30 mm. The pathological finding was Brunner’s gland hyperplasia with no malignancy.
