Non-lifting large non-pedunculated colorectal polyps (NL-LNPCPs) account for 15% of LNPCP and are effectively managed by Endoscopic Mucosal Resection with adjunctive Cold-forceps Avulsion adjuvant Snare-Tip soft coagulation (CAST). However, recurrence rates > 10% at surveillance colonoscopy is a significant limitation. We aimed to compare the outcomes CAST MTA versus alone NL-LNPCPs. Prospective observational data on consecutive patients NL-LNPCPs treated EMR single tertiary center was...
A 36-year-old woman underwent anterior resection of the rectum owing to endometriosis. The procedure was complicated by a rectovaginal fistula, which needed several surgical reinterventions. Despite diversion colostomy and reconstruction posterior vaginal wall with fasciocutaneous flap, fistula persisted, 50-mm abscess interposed between coloanal anastomosis neovagina. patient referred for endoscopic evaluation.
A 69-year-old woman underwent endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of a fully circumferential flat, homogeneous, granular lesion, abutting the anal verge and extending proximally for 6 cm ([Fig. 1]). Steroid enemas were prescribed 6-week period. Histopathology confirmed low-grade tubulovillous adenoma. The procedure was complicated by delayed bleeding which treated patient's local surgical team with extensive thermal coagulation.
A 64-year-old man was admitted to the gastroenterology department after a nasopharyngeal swab broke inside his left nasal fossa during testing for SARS-CoV-2. The patient had no symptoms, and physical examination unremarkable. examined by an otorhinolaryngologic physician. Nasofibroscopy performed but did not detect foreign body. Therefore, considering that sharp-pointed part (the broken swab's extremity), EGD performed. To perform as soon possible, considered be SARS-CoV-2 positive,...
Individuals within specific risk groups for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) [mucinous cystic lesions (MCLs), hereditary (HR), and new-late onset diabetes mellitus (NLOD)] represent an opportunity early cancer detection. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a premium image modality PDAC screening precursor lesion characterization. While no biomarker currently clinically available this purpose, glypican-1 (GPC1) overexpressed in the circulating exosomes (crExos) of patients with compared...
There is little information on diagnosis and management of small bowel lymphomas, optimal strategies are still undefined. This study aims to describe their main clinical pathological characteristics identify poor prognostic factors.A retrospective observational all patients with histological lymphoma between January 2010 December 2020 was performed.We included 40 patients, male predominance (60%) mean age 60.7 years. The ileum the most common location, subtypes were follicular diffuse large...
Aims Sub-mucosal lesions of the colon are much rarer than those located in rectum [1], and their resection technique has been little studied. Based on that rectal lesions, it most often aims for R0 en bloc resection, but without formal proof efficacy. Consequently, question whether these demanding not risk-free techniques (ESD, EFTR) should be used to treat submucosal remains uncertain date, requires further investigation.
Aims The rate of recurrent or residual adenoma (RRA) after endoscopic resection (ER) large (≥15mm) duodenal lateral spreading lesions (D-LSLs) is reportedly 2.3-24.4%. Accurate recognition and treatment RRA in the duodenum challenging data regarding its management lacking. We sought to analyze outcomes ER D-LSLs a prospective cohort.
