This update of the 2010 International Consensus Recommendations on Management Patients With Nonvariceal Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding (UGIB) refines previous important statements and presents new clinically relevant recommendations.An international multidisciplinary group experts developed recommendations. Data sources included evidence summarized in recommendations, as well systematic reviews trials identified from a series literature searches several electronic bibliographic databases...
The endoscopic treatment of symptomatic pharyngoesophageal diverticula (PED) with rigid instruments involves the incision septum between diverticulum and esophageal lumen, within which cricopharyngeal muscle is present. aim this study to report on feasibility efficacy our method using flexible endoscopy an electro-surgery system minimal trauma patients.Forty-two patients (13 female, 29 male) underwent treatment. average age was 68.4 years (range 46 102 years) 26 them (61%) had concomitant...
The aim of this study was to standardize the methods sample collection mucus from digestive tract and determine microbiota in healthy volunteers Brazil, collecting samples mouth, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, colon, rectum. Microbiota selected oral cavity (n=10), esophagus upper (n=20), lower (n=24) were evaluated through distinct methods. Collection took into account different sites, using basic scraping swabbing techniques, stimulated saliva cavity, irrigation-aspiration...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Both endoscopic and surgical drainage procedures are effective palliative methods for malignant biliary obstruction. Surgical is still preferred in developing countries due to the high cost of procuring metal stents. The aim this study was evaluate quality life care patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer after drainage. PATIENTS METHODS This a prospective, randomized controlled trial conducted tertiary referral center Brazil. Patients obstruction liver metastasis, but...
Data are scarce on the penetrance of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1)-related nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF-PETs) and insulinomas in young MEN1 patients. A potential positive correlation between tumor size malignancy (2-3 cm, 18%; >3 43%) has greatly influenced management adults with NF-PETs.The aim study was to estimate NF-PETs, insulinomas, gastrinomas carriers.The data were obtained from a screening program (1996-2012) involving 113 patients tertiary...
The difference in clinical outcomes after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and mucosal resection (EMR) for early Barrett's esophagus (BE) neoplasia remains unclear. We compared the recurrence/residual tissue rates, outcomes, adverse events ESD EMR BE neoplasia.We included patients who underwent or BE-associated high grade dysplasia (HGD) T1a esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) at eight academic hospitals. demographic, procedural, histologic characteristics, follow-up data. A time-to-event...
BACKGROUND This is a randomized study to compare the diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided sampling pancreatic solid lesions obtained with 22-gauge Franseen (EUS-fine needle biopsy) vs standard aspiration) without rapid onsite evaluation (ROSE), since, in most endoscopy units around world ROSE not routinely available. AIM To investigate EUS-guided between two different needles ROSE. METHODS Patients were included. biopsied order. The primary endpoint was sensitivity for...
Objectives The accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound-fine needle aspiration cytology (EUS-FNAC) for the diagnosis pancreatic cancer is suboptimal. Mutational activation kras oncogene almost universally present in tissue. We, therefore, investigated if analysis mutant gene EUS-FNAC aspirates supplements cytopathology adenocarcinoma (PAC). Methods specimens obtained from 74 patients with masses were analyzed presence mutation on codon 12 using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length...
Background The source and outcomes of upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) in oncologic patients are poorly investigated. Objective study aimed to investigate these issues a tertiary academic referral center specialized cancer treatment. Methods This was retrospective including all with referred endoscopy due UGIB 2010. Results confirmed 147 (of 324 patients) for suspected episode GI bleeding. Tumor the most common cause ( N = 35, 23.8%), followed by varices 30, 19.7%), peptic ulcer 29,...
Background and Study Aims: Despite the recognized efficacy of sclerotherapy elastic band ligation in controlling variceal hemorrhage, results endoscopic treatment Child-Pugh class C patients remain poor. The aim this prospective, controlled, randomized study was to compare conventional with injection tissue adhesive N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate first episode rupturing esophageal varices.
