Endoscopic Mucosal Resection Versus Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Colorectal Laterally Spreading Lesions.
Endoscopic Mucosal Resection Versus Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Laterally Spreading Lesions Non Granular-Flat Elevated Type (LSL-NG-FE) ≥ 20 mm and LSLs-Granular Mixed Type ≥ 30 mm. A Randomized, Non-inferiority Trial.

Conditions
Summary
EMR and ESD are both effective and safe and are associated with a very low risk of procedure related mortality when performed for colorectal laterally spreading lesions (LSL). Some kind of LSLs have a low risk of submucosal invasive carcinoma (SMIC) or these foci are found in well demarcated areas of the tumor. This is the case of the non-granular flat elevated (LSN-NG-FE) and the LSLs-G mixed subtypes. The investigators aim to assess if piecemeal EMR (the older technique) for LSLs-G mixed type \> 30 mm and LSLs-NG FE type \> 20 mm is not inferior to ESD (the new treatment) for the need of additional surgery in the mid-term.

Interventions
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is an endoscopic resection technique that allows the removal of large colorectal lesions using a conventional "lift-and-cut" procedure or an underwater technique
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an endoscopic procedure that allows dissection of larger colorectal lesions in one piece using endoknives. The procedure is technically more difficult, much more time-consuming than EMR, mandates multiday hospital admission and has an increased risk of perforation.
