ABSTRACT Background As the antibiotic resistance and treatment failure rates of Helicobacter pylori are rising, need for rescue therapy with rifabutin H. eradication (HPE) is also increasing. Therefore, in this study, we investigated efficacy, status, adverse events patients receiving rifabutin‐based HPE. Materials Methods Between January 2020 December 2022, 3006 underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) culture tests. Of these, results were successfully obtained from 1792 patients, who...
Although many epidemiologic studies have shown that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication has prophylactic effects on gastric cancer, their results are less clear in high-risk populations. We conducted this study to examine whether H. would affect the occurrence of metachronous cancer after endoscopic resection patients with early cancer.We retrospectively analyzed 2,089 adults who underwent low-grade neoplasia, high-grade or differentiated invasive neoplasia from 2004 2008 at Asan...
Although endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is increasingly utilized to treat early neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract, its use for duodenal limited by thin wall and narrow lumen duodenum. We have reviewed cases where ESD was used sessile, nonampullary neoplasms. To do this, we retrospectively medical records patients treated with adenomas duodenum from January 2001 December 2010, assessing curative outcomes complication rates. A total 14 were reviewed. Mean patient age 56.4 years....
The eradication rates for Helicobacter pylori have decreased in Korea although the prevalence of this bacterium has also decreased. Antibiotic resistance is likely to be a crucial factor H. success, and we therefore mapped these patterns nationwide Korea.Five hundred ninety adult subjects were prospectively enrolled from 2017 2018 15 centers across six geographic areas Korea. A total 580 biopsy tissues had been sampled patients during an upper endoscopy frozen at -80°C delivered central...
Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) is a relatively safe procedure; however, acute and chronic complications of PEG have been reported. We aimed to determine risk factors associated with 30-day mortality after PEG, based on 11 years experience at single tertiary hospital. In total, 401 patients who underwent first insertion the Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Korea, between January 2005 December 2015 were eligible. records retrospectively reviewed clinical characteristics outcomes 139 262...
The efficacy of surveillance for esopha-geal squamous cell neoplasia (ESCN) in patients with head and neck carcinoma (HNSCC) remains contro-versial. Our study aimed to provide clinical data concerning the necessity detecting early ESCN pa-tients HNSCC.We retrospectively reviewed from 714 who were pathologically confirmed as having HNSCC (n=236 oral cavity cancers, 137 oropha-ryngeal 87 hypopharyngeal 254 la-ryngeal cancers).Of patients, during a median follow-up 31 months, 48 ESCNs (37...
The association of serum lipids with gastric cancer is controversial. We clarified the role in development, progression, and prognosis cancer.In total, 412 patients diagnosed were prospectively recruited, 2,934 control subjects who underwent screening endoscopy enrolled from December 2013 to March 2017 conduct a case-control study tertiary center. Serum lipid profiles, including total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density (LDL-C), triglyceride (TG),...
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of a superficial esophageal neoplasm (SEN) is technically difficult procedure. We investigated the clinical outcomes ESD to determine its feasibility and effectiveness for treatment SEN.
With technical and instrumental advances, the endoscopic removal of bezoars is now more common than conventional surgical removal. We investigated clinical outcomes in a patient cohort with gastrointestinal removed using different treatment modalities.Between June 1989 March 2012, 93 patients underwent or procedures at Asan Medical Center. These were divided into (n=39) (n=54) groups accordance initial modality. The feature these two analyzed retrospectively.The median follow-up period was...

Although many epidemiologic studies have evaluated the effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on gastric cancer, is still uncertain in general populations. We whether H. would affect incidence cancer healthy asymptomatic populations.We performed a retrospective cohort study 38 984 individuals, who underwent health screening examinations more than twice between 2005 and 2016. investigated among 3 groups: those without infection (Hp-negative group), with (eradication (non-eradication...
Background Undifferentiated type of early gastric cancer (U-EGC) is included among the expanded indications endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD); however, rate curative resection remains unsatisfactory. Endoscopists predict probability by considering size and shape lesion whether ulcers are present or not. The location lesion, indicating likely technical difficulty, also considered. Objective aim this study was to establish machine learning (ML) models better possibility in U-EGC prior...
The original eCura system was designed to stratify the risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM) after endoscopic resection (ER) in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC). We assessed effectiveness a modified for reflecting characteristics undifferentiated-type (UD)-EGC. Six hundred thirty-four who underwent non-curative ER UD-EGC and received either additional surgery (radical group; n=270) or no further treatment (no n=364) from 18 institutions between 2005 2015 were retrospectively included...
Esophageal cancer is a predominantly male disease. However, the sex differences associated with esophageal have not been thoroughly investigated. This study aimed to evaluate between in males and females Korean population. We assessed patients diagnosed 2005 2015 at tertiary referral center. The clinical features of patients, histopathologic characteristics tumors, treatment survival outcomes were compared female patients. enrolled 2,068 comprising 1,924 (93.0%) 144 (7.0%) females. median...
