<b>Background and aims:</b> The ability to safely effectively obtain sufficient tissue for pathologic evaluation by using endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance remains a challenge. Novel designs in EUS needles may provide improved such core biopsies. aim of this study was evaluate the diagnostic yield biopsy specimens obtained novel needle specifically designed <b>Patients methods:</b> Multicenter retrospective review all EUS-guided fine-needle biopsies (SharkCore FNB needle, Medtronic,...
Abstract Background Endoscopic resection of lesions involving the appendiceal orifice remains a challenge. We aimed to report outcomes with full-thickness device (FTRD) for and identify factors associated occurrence appendicitis. Methods This was retrospective study at 18 tertiary-care centers (USA 12, Canada 1, Europe 5) between November 2016 August 2020. Consecutive patients who underwent an lesion using FTRD were included. The primary outcome rate R0 in neoplastic lesions, defined as...
Abdominal pain physiology may be better understood studying electrophysiology, histology, and symptom scores in patients with the symptoms of gastroparesis (Gp) treated gastric electrical stimulation (GES). Ninety-five Gp patients' were recorded at baseline during temporary permanent GES. Gastric-emptying times cutaneous, mucosal, serosal electrogastrograms obtained. S100-stained, full-thickness biopsies compared autopsy controls. Sixty-eight reported severe baseline. Severe mean decreased...
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is an irreversible and progressive inflammation of the pancreas that can involve both pancreatic parenchyma duct. CP results in morphological changes gland form fibrosis calcification along with functional impairment exocrine endocrine insufficiency. Studies on natural history reveal irreversibility condition resultant plethora complications, which adenocarcinoma most dreaded one. In Japanese population-based studies by Otsuki Fuzino et al., was clearly shown to...
BACKGROUND: The mainstay of therapy for gastrocutaneous (GC) fistulas has been surgical intervention. However, endoclips are currently used management perforations and but limited by their ability to entrap hold the tissue. OBJECTIVE: To report first North American experience with a commercially available over-the-scope clip (OTSC) device, novel new tool endoscopic entrapment tissue closure fistula perforations. METHODS: present single-centre study was conducted at tertiary referral academic...

Background and study aims Left ventricular assist device (LVAD) placement is a therapeutic modality for patients with end-stage heart failure. Gastrointestinal bleeding common complication following LVAD implantation. The aim of this was to report our experience in management outcomes gastrointestinal large cohort LVADs. Patients methods We performed retrospective review all who underwent implantation at the University Rochester Medical Center from January 2008 June 2017. Data were collected...
Gastric perforations and leaks are significant complications that can arise from various gastrointestinal disorders surgical interventions. Over the past decade, endoscopic techniques have emerged as an effective method for managing these conditions. Furthermore, resection grown in popularity, risk of acute delayed has also grown. This review aims to provide in-depth analysis management strategies employed gastric leaks. We will discuss etiology, diagnostic modalities, utilized, well...
Introduction . To investigate the impact of a 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC [Beriplex®/Kcentra®]) versus plasma on “time to procedure” in patients with acute/severe gastrointestinal bleeding requiring rapid vitamin K antagonist (VKA) reversal prior invasive procedure. Methods A post hoc analysis two phase III trials 4F-PCC bleeding. The treatment arms were compared for study volume, infusion times, and time from start Results Analysis included 42 (plasma, <mml:math...
Purpose: To determine the success rate of Zenker's Diverticulum myotomy in a systematic manner involving most symptoms associated with diverticulum help newly designed scoring system. Methods: The Kothari-Haber system for is considering signs and which patients experienced before after myotomy. Eight who had undergone were randomly selected. All these at least 3 months prior to interview reduce confounding factors. A score less than 4/16 would be considered positive result. contacted by...
