RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Low grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGIN) and high grade intraepithelial neoplasia (HGIN) are potential precancerous lesion of gastric neoplasms. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is the first option for the treatment of precancerous lesion and early gastric cancer (EGC). Traction is an effective method to improve efficiency, and reduce complications during ESD. In this study, we shared a useful traction method using the clip-and-snare method with a pre-looping technique (CSM-PLT) for precancerous lesion and EGC. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed patients received ESD combined with CSM-PLT or conventional ESD from June 2018 to December 2021 in Shenzhen People's hospital. The primary outcome was resection speed. RESULTS: Forty-two patients were enrolled in ESD combined with CSM-PLT group and sixty-five patients in conventional ESD group respectively. Baseline characteristics were comparable among two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in terms of R0 resection rate, en bloc resection rate (97.6% vs. 98.5%, P = 1.000 and 97.6% vs. 96.9%, P = 1.000, respectively), operation costs (933.7 (644.1-1102.4) dollars vs. 814.7 (614.6-988.3) dollars, P = 0.107), and hospital stays (8.0 ± 3.1 days vs. 7.3 ± 3.2 days, P = 0.236). In addition, no significant difference was observed with respect to complications (P>0.05). However, the resection speed of ESD combined with CSM-PLT was faster than that of conventional ESD (11.3 (9.4-14.9) mm2/min vs. 8.0 (5.8-10.9) mm2/min, P < 0.001), particularly lesions located in anterior wall and lesser curvature. In addition, the association between ESD combined with CSM-PLT and resection speed was still supported after propensity matching scores (PMS). CONCLUSIONS: CSM-PLT can help to improve ESD efficiency without reducing the en bloc resection rate or increasing the incidence of complications.

Duodenal-type follicular lymphoma (D-FL) is a special type of follicular lymphoma, which tends to occur in the descending segment of the duodenum. The lesion is mostly limited to the mucosal layer. The treatment approach for D-FL has not been clearly established and the watch and wait (WW) approach is generally recommended as a major option. Since D-FL may be transformed into a more serious type of lymphoma, it is of clinical significance to explore active treatment methods. We diagnosed and successfully treated a case of D-FL with Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Because D-FL is limited to mucosa in the descending segment of the duodenum, ESD can completely dissect the lesion to achieve the purpose of complete resection. Compared with the WW, the method of WW after endoscopic therapy is more active, safe and effective.
RESUMO
A 64-year-old female was found a rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NET) for cancer screening examination. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) revealed a hypoechoic lesion (8.3*6.6 mm) originating from the submucosa layer. "Clip coupled with elastic ring" internal traction for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was used to remove the NET according to the procedure removal of a duodenal tumor1. The procedures are following: 1. Marking around the lesion with a margin of approximately 5 mm. 2. Submucosal injection and circumference incision around the lesion. 3. Applied clip coupled with elastic ring internal traction. 4. Submucosal injection. 5.Precise dissection was performed with the NET being en bloc resection. 5. Closed the mucosal defect. Finally, the Histopathology confirmed a neuroendocrine tumor.

NF1 is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease, with a prevalence of at least 1 in 4000-5000 population. The diagnosis criteria of NF1 included typical manifestations such as café-au-lait spots, frecking in the axilla or inguinal region, multiple neurofibromas, Lisch nodeules, and distinctive osseous lesions. Genetic testing shows NF1 mutation. It is essential for tumor surveillance in NF1 patients because their life expectancy is about 54 years due to malignancy. A case of NF-1 patient receive laparoscopic small bowel resection and finally diagnosed as adenocarcinoma and ganglioneuroma. About 25% of NF1 patients had GISTs , most of them were asymptomatic and some may manifest with abdominal pain, bowel obstruction, or gastrointestinal bleeding. CT and MRI are commonly used imaging modalities for GIST in NF1, while they may be negative sometimes. As DBE a more practical and non-invasive method now, we consider it is a valuable method for screening and early detecting small intestine disease for NF1 patients.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Gastric venous bleeding is one of the most common adverse events in liver cirrhosis. The therapeutic effect of isolated gastric varices is relatively clear. However, there is no appropriate clinical and endoscopic treatment for extensive variceal bleeding in the gastric fundus and body. METHODS: In this patient with non-isolated gastric varices, we decided to perform endoscopic multi-point ligation of the obvious varices in the gastric fundus and body. RESULTS: In this patient, endoscopic treatment of gastric varices with bleeding after surgery achieved a significant therapeutic effect. Reexamination of gastroscopy at 3 months after operation showed that multiple scars were formed in the gastric fundus and fundus, and no obvious varices were found. CONCLUSIONS: For patients with non-isolated gastric varices, endoscopic multi-point ligation is a safe and effective treatment option for the varices with obvious gastric fundus and body.
RESUMO
A 65-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of reflux for more than 20 years. After endoscopy and barium-swallow examination, he was diagnosed with achalasia as well as a squamous cell carcinoma. Therefore, peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) combined with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was performed simultaneously. During the procedure, a mucosal erosion with a clear boundary was shown in the middle segment of the esophagus. ESD was first performed and the lesion was removed en-bloc. Subsequent POEM therapy was performed after marking the left esophageal wall 10cm above the cardia. After submucosal injection, the submucosal plane was created through a length 2cm longitudinal incision, then the muscle was cut a length of 10 cm into the esophagus and 2 cm below the cardia, and finally the incision was closed by clips. Pathological examination revealed high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia of squamous epithelium (carcinoma in situ) with a negative margin. The patient was recovered without complication four days after the procedure. The endoscopy showed perfect healing of the esophageal lesions during two-months follow-up , and the reflux symptom was resolved.
RESUMO
Brunner's gland adenoma (BGA), also known as Brunneroma or polypoid hamartoma, is a rare benign duodenal tumor that proliferates from Brunner's glands of the duodenum. They are usually asymptomatic and discovered by chance during endoscopy. Some giant lesions can sometimes present with chronic abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and anemia, including gastrointestinal bleeding and obstructive symptoms, and need to be resected by surgery or endoscopy. Here we report a giant BGA that was easily and safely removed by Endoloop pre-ligation assisted resection.

A 65-year-old male complained of persistent melena for 6 days, and displayed anemia symptoms without hematemesis, vomiting, and abdominal distention. He was diagnosed as ruptured aneurysm of aortic sinus Valsalva, and had received coronary artery occlusion 1 month ago. After the operation, he was continually prescribed clopidogrel 75 mg once daily. The laboratory examination showed blood hemoglobin concentration was 60 g/L without other conspicuous abnormality. Unfortunately, neither esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) nor colonoscopy found no obvious bleeding lesions. And abdominal computed tomography angiography (CTA) and enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed no obvious abnormal findings. Moreover, capsule endoscopy revealed small intestinal with mucosal erosion (Figure 1A). After discontinued clopidogrel, blood transfusion, and support therapy, his symptoms was resolved with negative fecal occult blood, continued clopidogrel 75 mg once daily, and uneventfully discharged 1 week later.

A 16-year-old woman complained of intermittent epigastric pain for one year. The gastroscopy, colonoscopy and laboratory findings were normal. Physical examination was unremarkable other than upper abdominal tenderness. The symptom was not relieved in past medical treatment. The abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed appendix wall swelling and suspected appendicitis. Endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) with eyeMax (Micro-tech, China) was proposed to perform after informed consent obtained. A colonoscopy with a transparent cap (Olympus, Japan) attached to the tip was inserted into the cecum, and advanced the level of appendicular orifice. Subsequently, the Gerlach's valve was pushed aside using the transparent cap. Finally, the eyeMax was placed in the appendicular orifice, slowly moved forward in appendicular lumen. The eyeMax showed a lot of appendicular stones, and irrigated repeatedly. The stones were expulsed smoothly. The patient was discharged two days later without recurrent epigastric pain on follow-up and to date.
RESUMO
A 69-year-old woman was diagnosed with a duodenal adenoma near major duodenal papilla during cancer screening examination (Figure 1A). Therefore, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) was proposed to remove the duodenal lesion. Unfortunately, satisfactory visualization of the duodenal lesion was not obtained during gastroscopic operation. Unexpectedly, duodenoscopy provided optimal visualization of the duodenal lesion. Consequently, the "sandwich method" using duodenoscopy-gastroscopy-duodenoscopy was successfully performed to remove the challenging duodenal lesion. Firstly, the duodenoscopy was used to create a submucosal bleb through injecting saline containing 0.3â% indigo carmine. Subsequently, the gastroscopy with a transparent capwas used to remove the duodenal lesion with en bloc resection. Then, the duodenoscopy was reused to close the mucosal defect. Finally, pathologic examination showed a tubule-villous adenoma. The patient was recovered uneventfully, and discharged 2 days later.

A novel multicomponent cascade cyclization reaction in one pot for the preparation of pyrido[3,2-a]phenoxazin-5-ones from simple o-aminophenols, paraformaldehyde, and enaminones has been established. It is noteworthy that o-aminophenol plays multiple roles serving as both a bis-nucleophile and an iminoquinone precursor, which can in situ generate aminophenoxazinones to undergo the Povarov reaction for the first time to yield pyrido[3,2-a]phenoxazin-5-ones with a high efficiency. Moreover, the photoluminescence of pyrido[3,2-a]phenoxazin-5-ones has polarity sensitivity and features aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics, which is promising for bioimaging and theranostic applications.
RESUMO
Plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles (PDENs) have been paid great attention in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC). As a proof of concept, we isolated and identified Portulaca oleracea L-derived exosome-like nanoparticles (PELNs) from edible Portulaca oleracea L, which exhibited desirable nano-size (~ 160 nm) and a negative zeta potential value (-31.4 mV). Oral administration of PELNs effectively suppressed the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-12, and IL-1ß) and myeloperoxidase (MPO), increased levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10), and alleviated acute colitis in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced C57 mice and IL-10-/- mice. Notably, PELNs exhibited excellent stability and safety within the gastrointestinal tract and displayed specific targeting to inflamed sites in the colons of mice. Mechanistically, oral administration of PELNs played a crucial role in maintaining the diversity and balance of gut microbiota. Furthermore, PELNs treatment enhanced Lactobacillus reuteri growth and elevated indole derivative levels, which might activate the aryl-hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in conventional CD4+ T cells. This activation downregulated Zbtb7b expression, leading to the reprogramming of conventional CD4+ T cells into double-positive CD4+CD8+T cells (DP CD4+CD8+ T cells). In conclusion, our findings highlighted the potential of orally administered PELNs as a novel, natural, and colon-targeted agent, offering a promising therapeutic approach for managing UC. Schematic illustration of therapeutic effects of oral Portulaca oleracea L -derived natural exosome-like nanoparticles (PELNs) on UC. PELNs treatment enhanced Lactobacillus reuteri growth and elevated indole derivative levels, which activate the aryl-hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in conventional CD4+ T cells leading to downregulate the expression of Zbtb7b, reprogram of conventional CD4+ T cells into double-positive CD4+CD8+T cells (DP CD4+CD8+ T cells), and decrease the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Context: Patients with pancreatic cancer (PC) at a late stage often suffer from severe abdominal pain due to the invasion of celiac plexus, and the analgesics they receive often have intolerable side effects. Endoscopic, ultrasound-guided, celiac plexus neurolysis (EUS-guided CPN) can have a good therapeutic effect. Objective: The study intended to evaluate the ability of two nursing cooperation patterns to reduce patients' pain, decrease operation times, increase operational efficiency, and increase nurses' satisfaction, for patients with advanced PC and abdominal pain who received EUS-guided CPN. Design: The research team designed a retrospective controlled study. Setting: The study took place at the Shenzhen People's Hospital of the Second Clinical Medical College of Jinan University in Shenzhen, China, and at the Changhai Hospital of the Second Military Medical University in Shanghai, China. Participants: Participants were 40 patients with advanced PC who received EUS-guided CPN at one of the two hospitals between January 2019 and January 2020. Intervention: Twenty participants at Changhai Hospital received the traditional nursing cooperation pattern and became the control group, and 20 participants at the Shenzhen People's Hospital received the new nursing cooperation pattern and became the intervention group. Outcome Measures: The study measured clinical data, nursing measures, diagnostic significance, and key points for the two patterns as well as compared the effects of the new nursing cooperation method to that of traditional nursing. If the measurement data met the requirements for normality, the team used the two independent sample t-test for the intergroup comparisons. If normality wasn't satisfied, the team used medians and interquartile ranges (IQRs) for expression and the rank sum test for the intergroup comparisons. Counting data were expressed using the constituent ratio, and team used the chi-square test for comparisons between groups. P < .05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results: The operations were successful, and no complications occurred. No significant difference existed in the pain scores between the control group and the intervention group (P > .05), while a significant difference occurred in the nurses' operation times and satisfaction. Not only were the scores for operation times for the control group (97) and the intervention group (59) significantly different, but also the nurses' satisfaction was significantly higher for the intervention group postintervention, at 83.35 ± 5.25, than for the control group, at 62.25 ± 8.18 (P < .001). Such a new nursing cooperation method could assist in patient's rehabilitation and increase nurses' satisfaction. Conclusions: The new nursing cooperation method for patients with advanced PC and abdominal pain undergoing EUS-guided CPN can reduce operation time and improve nurses' satisfaction.

A 65-year-old man complained of choking and hoarseness for fifteen days, and was diagnosed with thyroid carcinoma infiltrating esophagus and trachea. Therefore, the patient underwent thyroidectomy, partial esophagectomy, and partial tracheal resection, and histopathology confirmed primary squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid. Unfortunately, on the tenth postoperative day, an esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a large fistula (25 mm*20 mm) in esophageal introitus, and diagnosed with tracheoesophageal fistula due to sustained choking. The patient failed to response to conservative treatment within 14 days. Consequently, endoscopic management was performed that the fistula was partly closed by purse-string suture using endoloop and hemostatic clips, then 1 ml of cyanoacrylate (Compon, China) was injected into the fistulous tract through a catheter. Interestingly, the patient's symptom was relieved after the procedure. And, esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed healing of the fistula 14 days later.

A 50-year-old female complained of discomfort of lower abdomen, and a colonoscopy revealed a rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NET). Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) showed a hypoechoic lesion (8.5*7.6 mm) originating from the submucosa layer. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) coupled with "modified clip coupled with elastic ring" traction was performed to remove the NET. Following procedures previously described, we made a subtle change.
RESUMO
A 35-year-old female complained of slight dysphagia for 3 months. Her physical examination and laboratory tests were unremarkable. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed a submucosal tumor (SMT) in the lower esophagus. Then, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) revealed that a hypoechoic echo lesion (10mm*12mm) originated from muscularis propria. Subsequently, ligation-assisted endoscopic resection was performed to remove the esophageal lesion. The steps were briefly described as follows: Marking dots in the SMT, and injecting submucosally beneath the marking dots. Incising apical mucosal surface around the marking dots Assembling an endoloop and ligation device (MAJ-339; Olympus). Ligating the SMT with endoloop. Cold snare the SMT.Ligating the defect using another endoloop. Histopathology confirmed a leiomyoma). After 2 months follow-up, EGD revealed healing of the esophageal lesion.

A 57-year-old female was found a 12 mm × 10 mm submucosal lesion in the rectum with a smooth mucosa and telangiectasia The lesion was considered as a neuroendocrine tumor, and removed by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) It was finally diagnosed with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma with negative margin by pathological examination and histopathological test. MALT lymphoma in the rectum is rare and difficult to diagnose without histopathological test. In this case, the characteristic of this case is telangiectasia on the surface of lesion. Therefore, our findings suggested small lesion in rectum but big in impact.
