Barrett‘s oesophagus (BO) is a precancerous condition with a risk of developing adenocarcinoma of approximately 0.5 % per year. Endoscopic surveillance of BO patients facilitates diagnosing early stages of malignancy. Therapeutic endoscopy allows the treatment of early neoplasia with endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), or possibly with some of the ablation techniques such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA). A video case report of endoscopic resection of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia using a transparent cap and a snare (EMR-C) is presented.
