Purpose of the guidelines The primary objective these guidelines is to provide general clinicians with information that would guide them make informed choices available diagnosis/treatment strategies for esophageal cancer (intended malignant tumors epithelial origin, not any other non-epithelial esophagus or metastatic tumors). Furthermore, are also intended as an aid healthcare professionals than physicians, patients, and patients’ family members, obtain understanding fundamental...

ResponsibilitiesThe Japan Esophageal Society assumes responsibility content these guidelines.However, should be borne by doctor providing shall rest with Society.Basic...
Endoscopic resection (ER) includes endoscopic mucosal (EMR), wherein the affected lesion is held or aspirated and resected with a snare, submucosal dissection (ESD), which refers to en bloc of an extensive using IT knife hook [1][2][3][4].Other treatments available include photodynamic therapy (PDT), argon plasma coagulation (APC), electromagnetic therapy.
Since 1981, the Japan Pancreas Society has been hosting a nationwide pancreatic cancer registry. To commemorate its 30th anniversary, we review history and latest achievement.During 3 decades, more than 350 leading institutions in contributed voluntarily to register periodic follow-up. The registry was modified protect privacy by encrypting hash algorithm.From 1981 2007, 32,619 cumulative records were analyzed. overall survival of invasive improved significantly. More patients with earlier...
Objective: The aim of this study was to elucidate the clinicopathological features and prognosis mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs). Materials Methods: We performed a multi-institutional, retrospective on collected series patients with MCN pathologically defined by ovarian-type stroma. Clinicopathological were investigated. Result: Mucinous neoplasm confirmed in 156 cases, including 129 adenomas (82.7%) 21 noninvasive (13.4%) 6 invasive carcinomas (3.9%). Patients exclusively women (98.1%)...
The Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery launched the clinical practice guidelines for management biliary tract cancers (cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder cancer, and ampullary cancer) in 2007, then published 2nd version 2014.In this 3rd version, questions (CQs) were proposed on six topics. recommendation, grade statement each CQ discussed finalized by an evidence-based approach. Recommendations graded as Grade 1 (strong) or 2 (weak) according to concepts Grading Assessment,...
Although hemihepatic portal vein embolization (PVE) has been used preoperatively to extend indications for hepatectomy in patients with colorectal metastases, the effects of this procedure on tumor growth and outcome remain controversial. To address issue, we assessed proliferative activity intrahepatic metastases after PVE long–term procedure. Eighteen underwent preoperative between 1996 2000 (PVE group). Twenty–nine who major hepatic resection without served as control (non–PVE The...
Hypothesis:There have been few reports on the minimum surgical margins (SMs) required for successful liver resection in patients with colorectal metastases.This requirement may be narrower than previously recommended margin of 10 mm.Objectives: To identify by assessing presence micrometastases around tumor using genetic and histological techniques, to investigate whether SMs are associated patterns recurrence or patient survival.Design: Prospective retrospective studies.Setting: Tertiary...
The Japan Pancreas Society performed a multiinstitutional, retrospective study of 1379 cases intraductal papillary mucinous tumor (IPMT) and 179 cystic (MCT) the pancreas. Clinicopathologic features postoperative long-term outcomes were investigated. IPMT most frequently found in men head In contrast, all patients with MCT women. Ovarian-type stroma only 42.2% cases. Prognostic indicators malignant included advanced age, positive symptoms, abundant mucous secretion, presence large nodules...
We searched for somatic mutations of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene in DNA samples isolated from 57 sporadic gastric cancers, by means a ribonuclease (RNase) protection analysis coupled with amplification polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Examining 30% APC coding region, including region where colorectal tumors are known to be clustered, we detected 12 tumors; seven 17 very well differentiated adenocarcinomas, two 19 or moderately and three ten signet-ring cell carcinomas. So far,...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term follow-up results patients with branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (BD-IPMNs) without mural nodules (MNs) at 10 representative institutions in Japan.We analyzed 349 BD-IPMN who had no MNs on endoscopic ultrasonography initial diagnosis.Observation periods ranged from 1 16.3 years (median, 3.7 years). Sixty-two (17.8%) exhibited disease progression during follow-up. Twenty-two underwent surgery, leading a pathological...
The purpose of this study was to define the indications and limitations endoscopic resection (ER) early gastric carcinoma (EGC). Over 15 year period from 1978 1992, 308 cancers were resected endoscopically either through a single operative intervention or in stages. Of 266 lesions step, 222 (85 %) entered remission. Forty-four cases had residual recurrent lesions. size, histology location affected curability; 89 % Type IIa less than 2 cm curatively, while only 50 those larger completely. In...
Objectives There have been only a few reports on follow-up results of serous cystic neoplasm (SCN) the pancreas. The frequency malignancy and surgical indication SCN are not determined yet. Methods In this multi-institutional study Japan Pancreas Society, total 172 patients with were enrolled. mean period was 4.5 years. Surgical resection performed in 90 patients, whereas remaining 82 simply observed. Results Of all 20% symptomatic. tumor located pancreatic head (39%), body (35%), tail...
