Abstract Objectives Most esophageal cancers in Japan are squamous cell carcinomas; however, there has been some concern regarding a recent increase in Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA). This study aimed to clarify the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients treated via endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in Kyushu, including ...

Abstract Introduction Gastrointestinal cancers account for 26% of cancer incidence and 35% of cancer‐related deaths globally. Early detection is crucial but often limited by white light endoscopy (WLE), which misses subtle lesions. Texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), introduced in 2020, enhances texture, brightness, and color, addressing WLE's

Peanut Lectin Histochemistry of Barrett’s Esophagus
Barrett’s epithelium refers to the replacement of the normal stratified squamous epithelium with columnar epithelial cells, possibly as a consequence of chronic reflux of gastric content into the esophagus, and is thought to be a pre-neoplastic disorder ...

ABSTRACT Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA) with neuroendocrine cell carcinoma (NEC) is a rare disease with a poor prognosis. We report a case of BEA with NEC treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with en bloc resection and long‐term survival was achieved without additional treatment.

ABSTRACT Introduction Anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation (ARMA) are novel endoscopic treatments for proton pump inhibitor or potassium‐competitive acid blocker‐refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. These procedures induce scarring of the artificial ulcer at the gastric cardia, which tightens the enlarged cardiac ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is sometimes used to assess the depth of invasion in esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (EGJA); however, its diagnostic performance in EGJA remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the additional value of EUS to conventional endoscopy (CE) in assessing invasion depth. Methods In this single‐
