Sarcopenia is a risk factor for increased incidence of complications (CTCAE > 2) after undergoing gastric and colorectal ESD, increased pneumonia rates, and higher mortality rates within five years following gastric ESD treatment in elderly patients. However, sarcopenia does not lead to an increased perforation rate in elderly patients undergoing gastric and colorectal ESD treatments. Registration and protocol: The protocol for this study was registered on the Open Science Framework in 2024 https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/7B2CZ . We also conducted pre-registration on PROSPERO (CRD42024532547).
