Third space endoscopy refers to a range of endoscopic techniques conducted within the third space, an anatomical term referring to the potential space within the wall of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This advanced technology involves procedures performed deep within the layers of the GI tract wall.
Third space endoscopy involves accessing deeper layers of the digestive system beyond the surface layer, known as the mucosa, to remove lesions and treat conditions.

What Happens In Third Space Endoscopy?
Third space endoscopy procedures are a big step forward in treating stomach problems without major surgery. One popular procedure is called peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), which is best at treating a specific type of swallowing issue called type 3 achalasia cardia. During these procedures, the following steps are performed:
During third space endoscopy, doctors make a pathway beneath the lining of the digestive system without hurting the surface. This pathway allows them to reach the problem area without causing damage to the outer layer.
Once the pathway is made, doctors can resolve the issue. For example, in peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), they can cut muscles in the oesophagus to help with swallowing difficulties caused by a condition called achalasia cardia.
After the main part of the procedure is done, any small cuts or openings made in the lining of the digestive system need to be closed carefully. This helps prevent bleeding or other problems. Doctors use special tools, like stitches or clips, to do this.
Overall, these procedures, including POEM, offer a less invasive way to treat stomach problems effectively, leading to better outcomes and improved quality of life for patients.
Pre-Operative Care For Third Space Endoscopy
Before undergoing a third space endoscopy, it is important to follow specific instructions to ensure a safe and effective procedure.
Preparing for a third space endoscopy involves strict adherence to fasting guidelines, careful consideration of medication timing, and the avoidance of specific medications that could interfere with the procedure. Following these instructions helps ensure the safety, effectiveness, and accuracy of the endoscopic examination or treatment, ultimately leading to better outcomes for the patient.
