RESUMO
A 79-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because numerous polyps were found in her stomach and large intestine at an ambulatory clinic. Although there were no characteristic symptoms or signs of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome (CCS), endoscopic and pathological findings indicated CCS. Moreover, colonoscopy showed two polypoid lesions (Is type), which appeared neoplastic by magnifying observation with image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE), in the ascending colon. Histologically, the resected specimens revealed tubular adenomas arising in the CCS inflammatory polyps. Remarkable remission of the polyps and edematous mucosa in the stomach and colon was seen after 8 months of administration of salazosulfapyridine (SASP) (3 g/day). Another adenoma was detected and removed endoscopically in the sigmoid colon. This is the first report to describe an asymptomatic case of CCS probably detected in the early phase of the disease, by magnifying IEE which enabled detection and treatment for associated colonic adenomas. SASP was effective in eradication of the inflammatory polyposis, and an additional adenoma was successfully found and removed by surveillance colonoscopy thereafter.

A 74-year-old woman underwent colonoscopy for investigation of a liver tumor. A lateral spreading tumor of the non-granular type (LST-NG), 25 mm in diameter, was detected at the rectosigmoid junction. As magnifying image-enhanced colonoscopy suggested a tubulovillous adenoma, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) was chosen for removal of the LST-NG. The lesion was effectively and evenly lifted after injection of 0.4% hyaluronic acid diluted with glycerol in the ratio of 1:1. A small amount of indigo-carmine dye was also added for coloration of the plane of resection. The lesion was completely removed en bloc. Although a blue-colored layer was identified in the resection defect, a small amount of a whitish layer was detected above the blue layer. The muscle layer was clearly located on the underside of the resected polyp. A total of 14 endoclips were used to close the defect completely. The patient was successfully treated conservatively without surgery. Histology of the resected specimen showed that it contained a tubulovillous adenoma with the submucosal layer and both layers of the muscularis propria. The surgical margin was free of neoplastic change horizontally and vertically. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of full-thickness resection associated with EMR after unplanned injection of dilute hyaluronic acid into the subserosal layer rather than the intended submucosal layer. We describe how to promptly recognize this complication during colonoscopy, in order to achieve immediate closure of the defect, with the identification of a "mirror target sign" on the colonic wall.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Loss of mucosal 'lift' prior to submucosal dissection or endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) increases the risk of complications. We conducted a randomized controlled trial comparing dextrose solution with sodium hyaluronic acid (SHA) for the EN BLOC resection of Paris type I/0-II and lateral spreading lesions of the colorectum. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with Paris type I/0-II or lateral spreading tumor lesions of < 30 mm were randomized in a 1 : 1 ratio to undergo EMR using either dextrose solution or SHA. The primary study outcome was complete resection. Secondary outcomes were endoscopic complications (i. e. perforation or bleeding) and polyp recurrence rates. RESULTS: A total of 174 patients were randomized. R0 resection was achieved in 59 of the 82 lesions (72 %) in the dextrose group and 56 of the 81 lesions (69 %) in the SHA group ( P > 0.1), with no significant difference in median lesion diameter ( P > 0.1). The median number of post resection surveillance colonoscopies was 3 (range 2 - 7) in the dextrose group and 4 (range 2 - 6) in the SHA group ( P = NS). The median post index EMR resection follow-up period was 20 months (range 4 - 26) in the DS group and 18 months (range 3 - 22) in the SHA group ( P = NS). Recurrence rates were 1/82 (1.21 %) in the dextrose group and 1/81 (1.23 %) in the SHA group ( P = NS). CONCLUSIONS: EMR using dextrose solution is as effective as SHA in terms of resection completion, recurrence rates, and complications.

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: Assessment of the invasion depth of colorectal neoplasia is important in deciding between endoscopic and surgical resection treatment methods. Prior to attempting endoscopic resection, the lesion is lifted by submucosal injection, and a positive "non-lifting sign" is usually considered to indicate deeper submucosal infiltration. The purpose of this prospective multicenter study was to assess the predictive value of the non-lifting sign for differentiating between adenoma and early cancer (up to discrete submucosal infiltration [sm1]) and cancer with deeper infiltration (sm2). PATIENTS AND METHODS: During an 11-month period, a total of 271 colorectal neoplastic lesions in 239 patients were included in the study. Apart from the location, size, and macroscopic type of the lesion, the presence or absence of the non-lifting sign was recorded and compared with the endoscopic assessment of invasion depth. RESULTS: The non-lifting sign had a sensitivity of 61.5 %, a specificity of 98.4 %, a positive predictive value of 80.0 %, a negative predictive value of 96.0 %, and an accuracy of 94.8 %. Endoscopic diagnosis of deeper infiltration had a sensitivity of 84.6 %, a specificity of 98.8 %, a positive predictive value of 88.0 %, a negative predictive value of 98.4 %, and an accuracy of 97.4 %. Statistically significant differences were found in terms of sensitivity and accuracy. CONCLUSION: Because of its lower sensitivity and accuracy, the non-lifting sign will not replace endoscopic assessment. If a lesion does not lift, this can make resection technically difficult, but does not reliably predict deeper cancerous invasion.

BACKGROUND: The presence of abnormal microcapillaries detected by narrow band imaging (NBI) with magnifying colonoscopy has been reported to be a marker of colorectal neoplasia. AIM: To investigate prospectively if NBI with magnification could help predict the histology of early colorectal neoplasia. METHODS: A series of 104 consecutive patients with 139 colorectal lesions were studied. All lesions were detected by conventional colonoscopy and subsequently evaluated by NBI with magnification. During NBI with magnification, the microvascular architecture observed on the surface of the detected lesions, capillary patterns (CP), was divided into non-neoplastic (CP I) and neoplastic (CP II and CP III) types. Only lesions endoscopically diagnosed as CP II or CP III were included in the study. All of the lesions were resected endoscopically or surgically and examined histologically for comparison. RESULTS: Ninety-seven per cent (n = 103) of colorectal neoplastic lesions with CP II were histologically diagnosed as low-grade dysplasia. Eighty-seven per cent (n = 31) of the colorectal neoplastic lesions with CP III were high-grade dysplasia or invasive cancer. CONCLUSION: Capillary patterns observed by NBI with magnification could be used to assess the degree of atypia in early colorectal neoplasia.
