RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Little is known about prognostic factors for patients 85 years or older undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to identify such prognostic factors. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated the long-term outcomes and prognostic factors of 143 patients 85 years or older undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancer at a single-center between October 2005 and September 2020. Using the Kaplan-Meier method and a Cox proportional hazards regression model, we examined the relationships of patient characteristics and endoscopic curability (additional gastrectomy recommended [eCuraC-2] or not recommended) with overall survival. RESULTS: The median age of the patients was 86 years, and most patients were men (65%). The eCuraC-2 rate was 14.7%. During the follow-up period, 55 patients died; however, only two patients died due to gastric cancer. The 3-year and 5-year overall survival rates were 91.5% and 74.7%, respectively. Male sex (hazard ratio, 2.23; 95% confidence interval, 1.16-4.30), American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status of 3 (hazard ratio, 2.57; 95% confidence interval, 1.32-4.99), body mass index < 18.9 kg/m2 (hazard ratio, 2.21; 95% confidence interval, 1.11-4.40), and eCuraC-2 (hazard ratio, 3.04; 95% confidence interval, 1.37-6.75) were identified as independent prognostic factors. Moreover, patients with eCuraC-2 had significantly more poor prognostic factors than those who did not. CONCLUSIONS: The decision to perform endoscopic submucosal dissection for patients with the aforementioned prognostic factors should be carefully considered because follow-up without endoscopic submucosal dissection is possible.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The incidence of Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA) is increasing, and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been frequently performed for its treatment. However, the differences between the characteristics and ESD outcomes between short- and long-segment BEA (SSBEA and LSBEA, respectively) are unclear. We compared the clinicopathological characteristics and short- and long-term outcomes of ESD between both groups. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 155 superficial BEAs (106 SSBEAs and 49 LSBEAs) treated with ESD in 139 patients and examined their clinicopathological features and ESD outcomes. SSBEA and LSBEA were classified based on whether the maximum length of the background mucosa of BEA was < 3 cm or ≥ 3 cm, respectively. RESULTS: Compared with SSBEA, LSBEA showed significantly higher proportions of cases with the macroscopically flat type (36.7% vs. 5.7%, p < 0.001), left wall location (38.8% vs. 11.3%, p < 0.001), over half of the tumor circumference (20.4% vs. 1.9%, p < 0.001), and synchronous lesions (17.6% vs. 0%, p < 0.001). Compared with SSBEA, regarding ESD outcomes, LSBEA showed significantly longer resection duration (91.0 min vs. 60.5 min, p < 0.001); a lower proportion of submucosal invasion (14.3% vs. 29.2%, p = 0.047), horizontal margin negativity (79.6% vs. 94.3%, p = 0.0089), and R0 resection (69.4% vs. 86.8%, p = 0.024); and a higher proportion of post-procedural stenosis cases (10.9% vs. 1.9%, p = 0.027). The 5-year cumulative incidence of metachronous cancer in patients without additional treatment was significantly higher for LSBEA than for SSBEA (25.0% vs. 0%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The clinicopathological features of LSBEA and SSBEA and their treatment outcomes differed in many aspects. As LSBEAs are difficult to diagnose and treat and show a high risk of metachronous cancer development, careful ESD and follow-up or eradication of the remaining BE may be required.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Accurate tumor localization and resection margin acquisition are essential in gastric cancer surgery. Preoperative placement of marking clips in laparoscopic gastrectomy as well as intraoperative gastroscopy can be used for gastric cancer surgery. However, these procedures are not available at all institutions. We conducted a prospective clinical trial to investigate the diagnostic performance of near-infrared fluorescent clips (ZEOCLIP FS) in laparoscopic gastrectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with gastric cancer or neuroendocrine tumor in whom laparoscopic distal, pylorus-preserving, or proximal gastrectomy was planned were enrolled (n = 20) in this study. Fluorescent clips were placed proximal and/or distal to the tumor via gastroscopy on the day before surgery. During surgery, the clips were detected using a fluorescent laparoscope, and suturing was performed where fluorescence was detected. The clip locations were then confirmed via gastroscopy, and the stomach was transected. The primary endpoint was the detection rate of the marking clips using fluorescence, and the secondary endpoints were complications and distance between the clips and stitches. RESULTS: Among the 20 patients enrolled, distal and pylorus-preserving gastrectomies were performed in 18 and 2 patients, respectively. All clips were detected in 15 patients, indicating a detection rate of 75.0% (90% confidence interval: 54.4%-89.6%). Furthermore, no complications related to the clips were observed. The median distance between the clips and stitches was 5 (range, 0-10) mm. CONCLUSIONS: We report the feasibility and safety of preoperative placement and intraoperative detection of near-infrared fluorescent marking clips in laparoscopic gastrectomy.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: In Japan, the standard management of Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma after endoscopic submucosal dissection involves follow-up; however, multifocal synchronous/metachronous lesions are sometimes observed after endoscopic submucosal dissection. Risk stratification of multifocal cancer facilitates appropriate treatment, including eradication of Barrett's esophagus in high-risk cases; however, no effective risk stratification methods have been established. Thus, we identified the risk factors for multifocal cancer and explored risk-stratified treatment strategies for residual Barrett's esophagus. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the data of 97 consecutive patients with superficial Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinomas who underwent curative resection with endoscopic submucosal dissection. Multifocal cancer was defined by the presence of synchronous/metachronous lesions during follow-up. We used Cox regression analysis to identify the risk factors for multifocal cancer and subsequently analyzed differences in cumulative incidences. RESULTS: The cumulative incidences of multifocal cancer at 1, 3, and 5 years were 4.4%, 8.6%, and 10.7%, respectively. Significant risk factors for multifocal cancer were increased circumferential and maximal lengths of Barrett's esophagus. The cumulative incidences of multifocal cancer at 3 years were lower for patients with circumferential length < 4 cm and maximal length < 5 cm (2.9% and 1.2%, respectively) than for patients with circumferential length ≥ 4 cm and maximal length ≥ 5 cm (51.5% and 49.1%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Risk stratification of multifocal cancer using length of Barrett's esophagus was effective. Further multicenter prospective studies are needed to substantiate our findings.

RESUMEN

Although magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging is the standard diagnostic test for gastric cancer, diagnosing gastric cancer using this technology requires considerable skill. Artificial intelligence has superior image recognition, and its usefulness in endoscopic image diagnosis has been reported in many cases. The diagnostic performance (accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity) of artificial intelligence using magnifying endoscopy with narrow band still images and videos for gastric cancer was higher than that of expert endoscopists, suggesting the usefulness of artificial intelligence in diagnosing gastric cancer. Histological diagnosis of gastric cancer using artificial intelligence is also promising. However, previous studies on the use of artificial intelligence to diagnose gastric cancer were small-scale; thus, large-scale studies are necessary to examine whether a high diagnostic performance can be achieved. In addition, the diagnosis of gastric cancer using artificial intelligence has not yet become widespread in clinical practice, and further research is necessary. Therefore, in the future, artificial intelligence must be further developed as an instrument, and its diagnostic performance is expected to improve with the accumulation of numerous cases nationwide.

RESUMEN

Since the indications for endoscopic submucosal dissection have been expanded to include undifferentiated-type early gastric cancers, improvements in preoperative diagnostic ability have been an area of research. There are also concerns about the impact on the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection. Based on our previous studies, in undifferentiated-type early gastric cancers, magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging is useful for delineating the demarcation regardless of the tumor size. Additionally, inflammatory cell infiltration appears to be a cause of misdiagnosis, suggesting that the resolution of inflammation could contribute to the accurate diagnosis of demarcations. As such, the accuracy of demarcation in eradicated and uninfected cases is higher than that in non-eradicated cases. The common features of the endoscopic findings were discoloration under white-light imaging and a predominance of sites in the lower and middle regions. The uninfected group was characterized by smaller tumor size, flat type, more extended intervening parts in magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging, and pure signet ring cell carcinoma. In contrast, the eradication and non-eradication groups were characterized by larger tumor size, depressed type, and wavy microvessels in magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging. In this comprehensive review, as described above, we discuss the diagnosis of demarcation of undifferentiated-type early gastric cancers, undifferentiated-type early gastric cancers that developed following H. pylori eradication, and H. pylori-uninfected undifferentiated-type early gastric cancers, with a focus on studies with self-examination and endoscopic findings and describe the future direction.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The effect of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) eradication therapy on mixed-histological-type gastric cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify the effect of H. pylori eradication therapy on mixed-histological-type early gastric cancer using endoscopic and histological findings. METHODS: This single-center, retrospective study included patients with mixed-histological-type gastric cancer who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection at the Cancer Institute Hospital. We compared detailed magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging findings between eradicated and non-eradicated groups of patients with differentiated-type- and undifferentiated-type-predominant cancers. Subsequently, we performed histological evaluations of the non-cancerous epithelium covering differentiated-type components. RESULTS: A total of 124 patients with mixed-type early gastric cancer were enrolled (eradicated group: 62 differentiated-type-predominant cancer patients and 8 undifferentiated-type-predominant cancer patients; non-eradication group: 40 differentiated-type-predominant cancer patients and 14 undifferentiated-type-predominant cancer patients). Regarding differentiated-type-predominant cancer, differentiated-type findings were detected in all patients in eradicated and non-eradicated groups. The difference in the detection rate of undifferentiated-type findings between both groups was not significant in differentiated-type-predominant cancer patients. In differentiated-type-predominant cancers, the percentage of non-cancerous epithelium covering differentiated-type components was higher in the eradicated group than in the non-eradicated group (median: 60% vs. 40%, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Although the pathological findings of differentiated-type-predominant cancer were affected by H. pylori eradication, eradication did not affect the diagnosis of differentiated-type-predominant early gastric cancer using magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging. ME-NBI is useful for the early detection of D-MIX EGCs and diagnosis of histological types during endoscopy, regardless of whether H. pylori eradication therapy has been administered.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Distinguishing between intramucosal cancer and submucosal invasive cancer is vital for optimal treatment selection for patients with superficial nonampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma (SNADAC); however, standard diagnostic systems for diagnosing invasion depth are as yet undetermined. METHODS: Of 205 patients with SNADAC who underwent treatment at our institution between 2006 and 2022, 188 had intramucosal cancer and 17 had submucosal invasive cancer. The clinical, endoscopic, and pathological features used in the preoperative diagnosis of invasion depth and the diagnostic performance of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) were retrospectively analyzed in 85 patients. RESULTS: The oral side of the papilla tumor location, protruded or mixed macroscopic type, and moderately-to-poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma based on biopsy specimens were significantly more frequent in submucosal invasive cancer than in intramucosal cancer (88% vs. 48%; 94% vs. 42%; 47% vs. 0%, respectively). From the relationship between the endoscopic features and the submucosal invasive cancer incidence, submucosal invasion risk was stratified as: (i) low-risk (risk, 2%), all lesions located on the anal side of the papilla and superficial macroscopic type on the oral side of the papilla; and (ii) high-risk (risk, 23%), protruded or mixed macroscopic type on the oral side of the papilla. Based on the biopsy specimens, all eight patients with moderately-to-poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma had submucosal invasive cancer. Furthermore, EUS was not associated with invasion depth's diagnostic accuracy improvements. CONCLUSION: Optimal treatment indications for SNADAC can be selected based on the risk factors of submucosal invasion by tumor location, macroscopic type, and biopsy diagnosis.

RESUMEN

Patients with malignant esophageal fistulas often experience dysphagia and infection, resulting in poor prognoses. Self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement is a palliative treatment option; however, its efficacy and safety are unclear. We aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of SEMS placement for malignant esophageal fistulas. We retrospectively investigated patients who underwent SEMS placement for malignant esophageal fistulas between 2013 and 2022 at the Cancer Institute Hospital. Dysphagia scores (DSs) before and after SEMS placement, adverse events, and overall survival from SEMS placement until death were evaluated. A total of 17 patients underwent SEMS placement, including 12 and 5 patients with esophageal and lung cancers, respectively. Prior treatments included chemoradiotherapy (n = 11), radiotherapy (n = 4), and chemotherapy (n = 4); two patients underwent palliative radiotherapy after chemotherapy. All procedures were technically successful. After SEMS placement, 14 (82.4%) patients were able to consume semisolid or solid food (DS ≤ 2). Major adverse events were encountered in only one case. The median survival time after SEMS placement was 71 days (range 17-247 days). SEMS placement allowed most patients to resume oral intake with a low rate of major adverse events. SEMS placement is a reasonable palliative treatment option for patients with malignant fistulas who have poor prognoses.

RESUMEN

Radiation-induced hemorrhagic gastritis is a relatively uncommon complication of irradiation that can be severe. However, appropriate treatment guidelines have not yet been established because of the small number of known cases. At our hospital, we encountered nine cases of radiation-induced hemorrhagic gastritis between July 2005 and July 2018. All patients initially underwent argon plasma coagulation (APC) for hemostasis. The treatment was highly effective, and hemostasis was successfully achieved in eight of the cases. Hemostasis could not be achieved in one case treated with APC; therefore, surgical resection was required. This patient had risk factors, such as liver cirrhosis and a history of abdominal surgery. Our case series suggests that APC is an effective hemostatic method that should be considered as the initial treatment option for radiation-induced hemorrhagic gastritis; however, surgical resection may be considered when the patient is at high risk for rebleeding.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The multi-institutional, single-arm, confirmatory trial JCOG0607 showed excellent efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for the expanded indication of intramucosal intestinal-type early gastric cancer (EGC), which consists of two groups: lesions >2 cm if clinical finding of ulcer (cUL)-negative, or those ≤3 cm if cUL-positive because of the expected low risk of lymph node metastasis. However, the proportion of noncurative resections (NCR) requiring additional surgery was high (32.4%). This post hoc analysis aimed to explore the clinical factors associated with NCR. METHODS: As the expanded indication includes two different groups, we explored the clinical factors associated with NCR separately in cUL-negative (>2 cm) and cUL-positive (≤3 cm) groups using the log-linear model. RESULTS: Two hundred and sixty cUL-negative and 206 cUL-positive EGCs were analyzed. The proportions of NCR were 33.8% in the cUL-negative group and 29.6% in the cUL-positive group. A multivariable analysis demonstrated that moderately differentiated predominant histology diagnosed in pretreatment biopsy (risk ratio [RR] 1.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.34-2.77, P < 0.001) and lesion in the upper stomach (RR 1.75, 95% CI 1.03-2.96, P = 0.038) in the cUL-negative EGCs, and tumor size >2 cm (RR 1.78, 95% CI 1.22-2.58, P = 0.003) and female sex (RR 1.62, 95% CI 1.07-2.44, P = 0.021) in the cUL-positive EGCs were independent factors associated with NCR. CONCLUSIONS: Clinical risk factors associated with NCR were different between cUL-negative and cUL-positive EGCs. To avoid NCR, we need to take these factors into account when deciding expanded indications for ESD.

RESUMEN

We herein report two cases of early esophageal adenocarcinoma derived from non-Barrett's columnar epithelium. Both patients, a 65-year-old woman and 60-year-old man, had elevated lesions on white-light imaging. Magnifying endoscopy revealed slightly irregular surface and vessel patterns, and both patients were successfully treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection. Histopathologically, both lesions comprised of well-differentiated gastric mucin phenotype adenocarcinoma. One lesion was accompanied by ectopic gastric mucosa, but the other was speculated to be ectopic gastric mucosa according to the tumor locus at the upper thoracic esophagus. Despite its rarity, endoscopists should consider the existence of adenocarcinoma derived from non-Barrett's columnar epithelium.

RESUMEN

Background and Aim: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication has become popular as it prevents the development of gastric cancer. There have been no comprehensive studies on advanced gastric cancer (AGC) after eradication; thus, the clinical characteristics remain unclear. This study aimed to compare the characteristics of AGC after eradication and with current H. pylori infection and evaluate the esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) follow-up after eradication. Methods: This single-center, retrospective study included 261 consecutive patients diagnosed with AGC through EGD. The patients were grouped based on their H. pylori status: eradication (n = 48) and infection (n = 213) groups. Univariate analysis was conducted to compare clinicopathological characteristics between groups. The clinical course of the eradication group was analyzed by dividing the patients into three groups according to the interval from the last EGD until AGC detection: short-interval (<1 year), intermediate-interval (2-3 years), and long-interval (4-5 years) groups. Results: The radical resection (R0) rate was higher in the eradication group. In surgical cases, the median tumor diameter was shorter in the eradication group. Analysis of EGD surveillance after eradication in 36 available cases showed that 24 (66.7%) were detected within 5 years after eradication, and 3 (8.3%) were diagnosed as AGC > 20 years after eradication. The R0 rates in the short-, intermediate-, and long-interval groups were 83.3%, 71.4%, and 60%, respectively. Conclusions: AGC after eradication was more often detected at the phase in which R0 resection was possible. EGD follow-up with tight intervals of at least 5 years after eradication is advisable.

RESUMEN

Helicobacter pylori (HP) is a major etiologic driver of diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC). However, improvements in hygiene have led to an increase in the prevalence of HP-naïve DGC; that is, DGC that occurs independent of HP. Although multiple genomic cohort studies for gastric cancer have been conducted, including studies for DGC, distinctive genomic differences between HP-exposed and HP-naïve DGC remain largely unknown. Here, we employed exome and RNA sequencing with immunohistochemical analyses to perform binary comparisons between 36 HP-exposed and 27 HP-naïve DGCs from sporadic, early-stage, and intramucosal or submucosal tumor samples. Among the samples, 33 HP-exposed and 17 HP-naïve samples had been preserved as fresh-frozen samples. HP infection status was determined using stringent criteria. HP-exposed DGCs exhibited an increased single nucleotide variant burden (HP-exposed DGCs; 1.97 [0.48-7.19] and HP-naïve DGCs; 1.09 [0.38-3.68] per megabase; p = 0.0003) and a higher prevalence of chromosome arm-level aneuploidies (p < 0.0001). CDH1 was mutated at similar frequencies in both groups, whereas the RHOA-ARHGAP pathway misregulation was exclusive to HP-exposed DGCs (p = 0.0167). HP-exposed DGCs showed gains in chromosome arms 8p/8q (p < 0.0001), 7p (p = 0.0035), and 7q (p = 0.0354), and losses in 16q (p = 0.0167). Immunohistochemical analyses revealed a higher expression of intestinal markers such as CD10 (p < 0.0001) and CDX2 (p = 0.0002) and a lower expression of the gastric marker, MUC5AC (p = 0.0305) among HP-exposed DGCs. HP-naïve DGCs, on the other hand, had a purely gastric marker phenotype. This work reveals that HP-naïve and HP-exposed DGCs develop along different molecular pathways, which provide a basis for early detection strategies in high incidence settings. © 2022 The Authors.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Whether antithrombotic drugs increase the risk of post-esophageal endoscopic resection bleeding is unknown. This study examined the effect of antithrombotic drugs, aspirin, thienopyridine, direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC), and warfarin, on post-esophageal endoscopic resection bleeding. METHODS: We enrolled 957 patients (1202 esophageal tumors) treated with endoscopic resection and classified them based on antithrombotic drug use as no use, aspirin, thienopyridine, DOAC, and warfarin. Patients using antiplatelet drugs (i.e. aspirin and thienopyridine) were further sub-classified based on their continued or discontinued use before endoscopic resection. The bleeding rates were compared between these groups to assess the effects of antithrombotic drug use and interruption of antiplatelet therapy on post-esophageal endoscopic resection bleeding. RESULTS: The post-endoscopic resection bleeding rate was 0.3% (95% CI, 0.1-1) in the group without antithrombotic drug use, 4.5% (95% CI, 0.1-23) in the aspirin-continued group, 2.9% (95% CI, 0.1-15) in the aspirin-discontinued group, 0% (95% CI, 0-78) in the replaced thienopyridine with aspirin group, 0% (95% CI, 0-26) in the thienopyridine-discontinued group, 13% (95% CI, 1.6-38) in the DOAC group, and 0% (95% CI, 0-45) in the warfarin group. The post-endoscopic resection bleeding rate in the DOAC group was significantly higher than that in the group without antithrombotic drugs (P = 0.003). The post-endoscopic resection bleeding rates did not differ between the other groups. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that discontinuing aspirin is not necessary for esophageal endoscopic resection while we must be careful regarding DOAC.

RESUMEN

Background and Aim: The risk factors for lymph node metastasis (LNM) of duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (DNETs) are not well identified, and a definitive standard of treatment for DNETs has not been established. In this study, we aimed to identify the risk factors for LNM and establish the indication of local resection for DNETs. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 55 patients with 60 non-ampullary and nonfunctional DNETs. We evaluated the risk factors for LNM and compared the outcomes between endoscopic resection (ER) for DNETs <5 mm and laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery (LECS) for DNETs ≥5 mm. Results: LNM was present in four (8.7%) patients. Univariate analysis revealed that tumor size ≥10 mm, positive lymphovascular invasion (LVI), and 0-Is morphology were significantly associated with LNM (P = 0.008, P = 0.037, and P = 0.045, respectively). ER and LECS were performed for 18 and 11 DNETs, respectively. All lesions treated with ER or LECS were confined to the submucosal layer. The median tumor size was 3 mm in ER and 6 mm in LECS. Although there was no significant difference in the R0 (no residual tumor) resection rate, R0 resection was completely achieved in the LECS. No significant differences were observed in terms of complication rates. No recurrence was observed in any of the groups. Conclusions: Tumor size ≥10 mm, positive LVI, and 0-Is morphology were significant risk factors for LNM. We demonstrated that ER is feasible and could be safely applied for DNETs <5 mm, and LECS could be applied for DNETs 5-10 mm in size.

RESUMEN

Background and study aims Management strategies for sporadic non-ampullary duodenal adenoma with low-grade dysplasia (LGD) are not well established. This study aimed to analyze progression factors and determine suitable treatment strategies for LGD lesions. Patients and methods We retrospectively analyzed consecutive LGD lesions (n = 125) in patients followed up for ≥ 6 months (median, 45 months) and evaluated the changes in clinicopathological features during follow-up. All LGD lesions were classified into two groups: stable LGD (no increase or < 5 mm increase in tumor size, with unchanged histological dysplasia grade) and progressive LGD (≥ 5 mm increase in tumor size and/or progression to high-grade dysplasia or adenocarcinoma). Results Eighty-six LGD were classified as stable and 39 as progressive. Location on the oral side of the papilla of Vater, large initial tumor size ( ≥ 10 mm), macroscopically complex type, red color, and nodularity were significantly frequent in progressive LGD than in stable LGD. In multivariate analysis, large initial tumor size (odds ratio [OR], 10.2; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 3.3-32.1; P  < 0.001) and location on the oral side of the papilla of Vater (OR: 1.8, 95 % CI: 1.4-12.5; P  = 0.012) were significant factors for progression. Moreover, initial tumor size < 5 mm rarely progressed (0%-3.9 %); however, initial tumor size ≥ 20 mm and 10-19 mm located on the oral side of the papilla of Vater had a high-risk progression rate (75.0-85.7 %). Conclusions According to the risk stratification of progression factors by initial tumor size and location, we can determine suitable treatment indications for LGD lesions.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: No studies have compared the performance of microvascular and microsurface patterns alone with their combination in patients undergoing magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging for diagnosing gastric cancer. This study aimed to clarify the differences in diagnostic performance among these methods. METHODS: Thirty-three participating endoscopists who had received specialized training in magnifying endoscopy evaluated the microvascular and microsurface patterns of images of 106 cancerous and 106 non-cancerous lesions. If classified as "irregular," the lesion was diagnosed as gastric cancer. To evaluate diagnostic performance, we compared the diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of these methods. RESULTS: Performance-related items did not differ significantly between microvascular and microsurface patterns. However, the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity were significantly higher when using a combination of these methods than when using microvascular (82.1% [76.4-86.7] vs. 76.4% [70.3-81.6] and 69.8% [60.5-77.8] vs. 63.2% [53.7-71.8]; P < 0.001 and P = 0.008, respectively) or microsurface (82.1% [76.4-86.7] vs. 73.6% [67.3-79.1] and 69.8% [60.5-77.8] vs. 52.8% [43.4‒62.1]; both, P < 0.001) patterns alone. The additive effect on diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity was 5.7‒8.6% and 6.6‒17.0%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate the superiority of the combination of microvascular and microsurface patterns over microvascular or microsurface patterns alone for diagnosing gastric cancer. Our data support the use of the former method in clinical practice. Although a major limitation of this study was its retrospective, single-center design, our findings may help to improve the diagnosis of gastric cancer.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement in patients with prior radiotherapy (RT) using the Niti-S stent, which is characterized by low radial force, in comparison to patients without prior RT. METHODS: A consecutive series of 83 patients who were treated by SEMS placement using Niti-S stent for severe malignant esophageal obstruction or fistula were enrolled. The adverse event rates and efficacy were retrospectively compared between patients with/without prior RT before SEMS placement (RT group [n = 32] versus non-RT group [n = 51]). RESULTS: The incidence rate of major adverse events in the RT group was 6.3% and was not significantly different from that in the non-RT group (5.9%, p = 0.95). Among the RT group, 84.4% were able to resume oral intake within a median of 2 days. Among the patients with fistula, 78.6% could resume oral intake and survive for 73 days after SEMS placement. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis identified significant factors affecting overall survival to be prior RT (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.96), low performance status (HR: 3.87), and subsequent anticancer treatment after SEMS placement (HR: 0.41). However, compared to the non-RT group, the RT group had received longer duration of anticancer treatment before SEMS placement and a lower rate of subsequent anticancer treatment after SEMS placement. CONCLUSIONS: With the Niti-S stent, the incidence of major adverse events was sufficiently low even for patients after RT. SEMS with low radial force would be an effective palliative treatment option for patients, regardless of prior RT.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is recommended for the treatment of early gastric cancers with an undifferentiated-type component, clinically diagnosed as intramucosal lesions ≤ 2 cm, without ulceration. In the JCOG1009/1010 trial, ESD could be performed with stomach preservation in 70% of such patients whose pathological findings met the curative resection criteria. However, additional gastrectomy was required for the remaining 30%. We identified the pretreatment risk factors for noncurative resection. METHODS: Post-hoc analysis indicated that 336 patients were identified in the JCOG1009/1010 trial; among them, 243 and 93 patients were categorized into the curative or noncurative resection groups, respectively, based on the pathological findings of the resected specimens. We explored the pretreatment risk factors for noncurative resection and investigated their associated pathological findings. RESULTS: Multivariable analysis revealed that a pretreatment tumor size > 1 cm was an independent risk factor for noncurative resection (odds ratio, 3.538; 95% confidence interval, 2.020-6.198, P < 0.0001). Patients with a pretreatment tumor size > 1 cm (n = 172) had a histological tumor size > 2 cm (22.1% vs 4.3%, odds ratio, 6.313; 95% confidence interval, 2.73-14.599, P < 0.0001) and submucosal invasion (17.4% vs 9.1%, odds ratio, 2.000; 95% confidence interval, 1.032-3.877, P = 0.040) more frequently as noncurative resection findings compared with those with a tumor size < 1 cm (n = 164). CONCLUSIONS: Because pretreatment tumor size > 1 cm is an independent risk factor for noncurative resection, endoscopists should be aware that noncurative resection is not uncommon in ESD and fully explain the potential necessity for additional gastrectomy to patients before the procedure.
