Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the duodenum is technically difficult because of the thinner duodenal wall and poor maneuverability of the endoscope resulting from the sharp angulation of the duodenum. Although well-differentiated nonfunctional duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) that are limited to the mucosa/ submucosa, 10 mm, can be endoscopically removed, the optimal management of duodenal NETs 10 to 19 mm is still controversial. Published studies have reported the utility of ESD for removal of duodenal NETs measuring 10 mm in
