Biological Ablation of Sentinel Lymph Node Metastasis in Submucosally Invaded Early Gastrointestinal Cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Currently, early gastrointestinal cancers are treated endoscopically, as long as there are no lymph node metastases. However, once a gastrointestinal cancer invades the submucosal layer, the lymph node metastatic rate rises to higher than 10%. Therefore,

Secondary endoscopic submucosal dissection for residual or recurrent tumors after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection [PDF]

open access: yesGastric Cancer, 2013
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a widely accepted technique for the management of gastric tumors. However, residual or recurrent tumors can occur after ESD; currently, there is no adequate management strategy for these tumors. Thus, the aim of the present study was to establish a strategy of secondary ESD (sESD) for cases with positive ...

High Risk of Colorectal Cancer After High‐Grade Dysplasia in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The advantages of colon‐sparing treatment for high‐grade dysplasia should be weighed against the higher risk of metachronous colorectal cancer and the subsequent need for stringent endoscopic surveillance. ABSTRACT Background There are limited data on colorectal cancer (CRC) risk after high‐grade dysplasia in inflammatory bowel disease.
