Atypical intrapapillary capillary loops in early-stage basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus.

Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus (BSCCE) is rare and extremely difficult to identify at early stage.We herein presented a superficial depressed lesion at early stage.

An early-stage primary signet ring cell carcinoma of the colon.

Primary signet ring cell carcinoma of the colorectum is rarely detected at an early stage,here,we present a case with early stage primary signet ring cell carcinoma of the colon, and the patient was treated at an early stage, and the prognosis was well. We also provide endoscopic and histological characteristics of early stage SRCC.

General anesthesia with endotracheal intubation ensures the quick removal of magnetic foreign bodies: A case report.

BACKGROUND: The incidence of ingestion of magnetic foreign bodies in the gastrointestinal tract has been increasing year by year. Due to their strong magnetic attraction, if multiple gastrointestinal foreign bodies enter the small intestine, it can lead to serious complications such as intestinal perforation, necrosis, torsion, and bleeding. Severe cases require surgical intervention. CASE SUMMARY: We report a 6-year-old child who accidentally swallowed multiple magnetic balls. Under timely and safe anesthesia, the magnetic balls were quickly removed through gastroscopy before entering the small intestine. CONCLUSION: General anesthesia with endotracheal intubation can ensure full anesthesia under the condition of fasting for less than 6 h. In order to prevent magnetic foreign bodies from entering the small intestine, timely and effective measures must be taken to remove the foreign bodies.

Comparison of the safety of the application of painless gastroscopy and ordinary gastroscopy in chronic hypertension patients combined with early gastric cancer.

The aim of the present study was to compare the safety of the application of painless gastroscopy and ordinary gastroscopy for chronic hypertension patients combined with early gastric cancer. A total of 123 patients with early gastric cancer were selected at the Dongying People's Hospital from June, 2014 to August, 2016. The patients were randomly divided into the painless (n=63) and ordinary (n=60) gastroscopy groups. Proper pretreatment was performed according to whether anesthesia was performed or not. Arterial pressure, heart rate, and blood oxygen saturation were detected and compared before anesthesia, when gastroscope passed through the esophageal entrance plane, and after recovery from anesthesia. The incidence of nausea and vomiting, cough, dysphoria, throat discomfort and other adverse reactions during and after surgery were recorded and compared. Compared with the levels before anesthesia, the mean arterial pressure, heart rate and blood oxygen saturation were significantly reduced in painless gastroscopy when the gastroscope passed through the esophageal entrance plane (P<0.05). In the ordinary gastroscopy group, the mean arterial pressure, heart rate and blood oxygen saturation were significantly increased when the gastroscope passed through the esophageal entrance plane compared with the levels before anesthesia (P<0.05). Blood pressure decreased in the painless gastroscopy group whereas it increased in the ordinary gastroscopy group after anesthesia. The decrease in the painless gastroscopy group was lower than in the ordinary group. The incidence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions including nausea, vomiting, cough, dysphoria, pharyngeal discomfort and other adverse reactions was significantly decreased in the painless gastroscopy group than in the ordinary gastroscopy group (P<0.05). The results suggest that the application of painless gastroscopy in chronic hypertension patients can significantly reduce the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions compared with that of the Gastric cancer ordinary gastroscopy. Thus, painless gastroscopy is safer than ordinary gastroscopy.
