It was reported to boston scientific corporation that orise gel was used as a lifting agent during an endoscopic submucosal dissection (esd) procedure on an unknown date.During the procedure, 6 ml of orise gel was used as a lifting agent for a 3.5 cm rectal lesion.Resection was not attempted, and biopsies were taken, which showed tubular adenoma.Two months later, endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed using hydroxyethyl starch based on the endoscopists preference.There was a focal area of non-lifting severe submucosal fibrosis with possible nodule that was challenging to dissect.A clip with elastic traction device was used to improve visualization and complete the dissection.Pathology revealed adenoma and the area of fibrosis showed submucosal lifting agent granuloma with giant cells and chronic inflammation.
