Endoscopic management demonstrates safe outcomes in appendiceal stump lesions, suggesting a viable option for beginners in endoscopy.
Transcolonic endoscopic appendectomy for appendiceal stump lesions is a safe and effective minimally invasive treatment option within experienced endoscopic centers. Due to their anatomical simplicity, these lesions represent a straightforward indication, making the procedure suitable as an entry-level application for endoscopists. Further investigation and structured training programs are warranted to assess long-term outcomes and broaden the generalizability of this technique.
