Abstract It has been 10 years since peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) was reported for the first time, and POEM currently become standard treatment achalasia related disorders globally because it is less invasive a higher curative effect than conventional therapeutic methods. However, there are limited studies comparing long-term outcomes of with those methods, particularly in occurrence gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after therapy. With this background, we held consensus meeting to...
<b>Background and study aims: </b>Intrapapillary capillary loops (IPCLs) have been used to estimate histopathological atypia the invasion depth of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The aim this was evaluate clinical significance IPCLs. <b>Patients methods:</b> A total 358 consecutive patients with esophageal neoplasia on magnifying narrow-band imaging (M-NBI) were studied. lesions categorized according IPCL classification Inoue et al. subsequently resected. Resected specimens...
Esophageal perforation occurring during or after endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) submucosal dissection (ESD) is a rare, but serious complication. However, reports of its characteristics, including imaging and management, have not been fully detailed. To analyze report the clinical presentation management esophageal perforations occurred EMR/ESD. Four hundred seventy-two neoplasms in 368 patients were treated (171 EMR; ESD 306) at Northern Yokohama Hospital from 2003 to 2012. total seven...
Background. Standard treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC) after endoscopic resection with risk factors nodal metastases and incomplete is controversial. We investigated optimal management for the patients potentially noncurative EGC resection. Methods. retrospectively examined clinicopathological data surgical outcomes all clinically solitary adenocarcinoma who underwent curative surgery a single peroral at Digestive Disease Center Showa University Northern Yokohama Hospital between April...
The histopathology of the muscularis propria (MP) is unknown in patients with achalasia. Endocytoscopy (EC) was developed as an ultra-high magnification endoscopy, and submucosal tunnel created during peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) not only provides access to MP but also enables subsequent assessment MP.In seven achalasia (mean ± SD; 35 18.1 years; men:women, 4:3) who underwent POEM (myotomy length: 12 2.2 cm), EC examination performed from mid-esophagus gastric side. images were compared...
Background . Bile juice plays a major role in duodenogastroesophageal reflux (DGERD). Several devices to directly measure the bile concentration have been proposed. We aimed ex-vivo evaluate by narrow band imaging (NBI). Method From six surgical cholecystectomies, content of gallbladders was aspirated and total biliary acid (TBA) evaluated. 2 mL employed for serial twofold dilutions. Each dilution scoped. Images on white light (WL) NBI were captured grouped accordingly NBI-appearance...
Linear immunoglobulin A/immunoglobulin G bullous dermatosis (LAGBD) is a rare form of autoimmune blistering disease characterized by circulating anti-keratinocyte cell surface antibodies from both the A and G. It presents as blisters, erosions, pustules with erythematous lesions, primarily on trunk extremities. 26-year-old Filipino male presented 4-year history multiple pruritic vesicles an base mentum spreading face, scalp, neck, upper trunk, Skin biopsy direct immunofluorescence suggest...
