Summary
In Korea, where the prevalence of gastric tumors is high, the use of ESD as a treatment for
gastric cancer will continue to increase. Considering that there are no special measures to
prevent side effects (bleeding, perforation, etc.) of this procedure, it is possible to
reduce the large medical costs through the discovery of substances that can promote gastric
mucosal healing. Mechanism of PRP-based materials in the regeneration of gastric mucosal
damage can be used to understand the pathophysiology of ulcers. In the future, it can be
suggested as a new treatment for gastrointestinal tract damage such as intractable ulcer,
perforation, mucosal fistula, gastrointestinal bleeding caused by esophagus, small intestine
and large intestine as well as ulcer treatment by endoscopic procedure.
