Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) delivers 100% in a pressurized chamber, increasing tissue levels and regulating inflammatory pathways. Mounting evidence suggests that HBOT may be effective for bowel disease. Our systematic review meta-analysis aimed to quantify the efficacy safety of fistulizing Crohn's disease (CD).
The internal medicine In-Training Exam (ITE) is administered at residency training programs to assess medical knowledge. Our program witnessed a performance decline on the ITE between 2011 and 2014. goal of this quality improvement project was improve knowledge among residents as measured by an in ITE, through design implementation Academic Enrichment Program (AEP). AEP designed 2014–2015, entailed multipronged approach, including strengthening tailoring didactic curriculum, establishment...
Signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) is an adenocarcinoma characterized by mucin-producing cells and most commonly arises in the stomach. Colonic SRCC can share features of colitis, including long segments concentric bowel wall thickening ulcerated mucosa with regions sparing. We describe a rare case metastatic gastric mimicking Crohn's disease. Our patient underwent 2 colonoscopies, biopsies revealed chronic active inflammation no evidence malignancy. The diagnosis was only made after...
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a common form of non-Hodgkin's that rarely occurs in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The majority GI FL cases are indolent nature and incidentally detected. They arise duodenum more specifically near ampulla Vater. Multiple lesions usually present upon endoscopic examination with mucosal submucosal involvement. We hereby report rare diagnosis primary presented as solitary lesion exclusively involving layer tract was not located classic periampullary region...
