[Successful treatment of the diverticular lesion of the colon via EMR with over-the-scope clip (OTSC):a case report].

A 65-year-old woman presented with a flat elevated lesion of about 1cm in the cecal diverticulum during a lower gastrointestinal endoscopy that was performed previously by another physician during a medical checkup. The patient was referred to our department for resection. Considering the risk of perforation owing to the diverticular lesion, positive nonlifting sign, and Group 5 diagnosis on the previous biopsy, EMR with over-the-scope clip (OTSC) (EMRO) was selected, and complete resection was achieved without complications.

[A case report of intussusception in adult patient with long-term percutaneous endoscopic gastrojejunostomy].

An 87-year-old man had a self-extracted percutaneous endoscopic gastrojejunostomy tube (PEG-J tube) and underwent PEG-J replacement. He vomited 2 days after the replacement, and bowel bleeding occurred 5 days after the replacement. Therefore, he presented to our hospital. A simple abdominal computed tomography scan showed a target sign in the jejunum on the anus side rather than on the PEG-J tube tip portion, resembling intussusception. We confirmed mucosa necrosis in the intussusception by small-diameter endoscopy and attempted internal treatment. However, resistance was so strong that the internal treatment was difficult;therefore, he underwent a jejunal resection. Although diarrhea and dumping syndrome are common PEG-J complications, there have been few reports of intussusception caused by PEG-J. We report a case of adult-onset intussusception, which was thought to be caused by long-term PEG-J implantation.
