In endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) beyond the stricture, balloon dilation is commonly performed until a conventional endoscope with a distal attachment may pass through. We herein present a case of ESCC with anastomotic stenosis after pharyngolaryngoesophagectomy that underwent ESD using an ultrathin endoscope. The ultrathin endoscope does not require balloon dilation, and the transparent hood mounted at the distal end of the ultrathin endoscope allows for a more rapid approach to the submucosa than a conventional endoscope. Therefore, ESD with an ultrathin endoscope is a useful endoscopic treatment option for ESCC with stricture.
