Endoscopic Diagnosis of Esophageal Neoplasms

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1992
Late stage cancers of the esophagus are routinely diagnosed by endoscopy and biopsy. To improve the poor prognosis of patients with these diseases requires an approach that will detect these cancers at early stages when treatment is most likely to be curative.

Clutch cutter is a safe device for performing endoscopic submucosal dissection of superficial esophageal neoplasms: a western experience.

Diseases of the esophagus, 2018
Although the endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been established to be more efficacious in the treatment of superficial gastrointestinal neoplasia than the piecemeal resection, its use is still limited due to the concern about serious adverse ...

Positive esophageal cytology without detectable neoplasm

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 1974
The only presently available means of improving an otherwise poor prognosis in carcinoma of the esophagus is early diagnosis. The authors describe 5 patients with dysphagia in whom positive cytologic specimens were obtained despite repeatedly negative x-ray, endoscopic, and biopsy procedures.

Lymph Node Dissection in Surgical Treatment of Esophageal Neoplasms

Surgical Oncology Clinics of North America, 2007
The optimal lymphadenectomy for esophageal cancer remains controversial. The choice of surgical access determines to a great extent the type of lymphadenectomy possible. En bloc resections and three-field lymphadenectomy are concepts pioneered in the West and East, respectively; both should be performed in specialized centers because such extended ...

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection of Esophageal Squamous Cell Neoplasms

Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2006
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has recently been developed for en bloc resection of stomach neoplasms, which results in high tumor eradication rates as well as a modality for the precise histologic assessment of the entire lesion. Application of the technique is desirable for esophageal squamous cell neoplasms (SCNs), but there have been no ...

From the radiologic pathology archives: esophageal neoplasms: radiologic-pathologic correlation.

Radiographics, 2013
Esophageal neoplasms have a wide spectrum of clinical features, pathologic findings, and imaging manifestations. Leiomyomas are the most common benign esophageal neoplasm, typically appearing as smoothly marginated intramural masses. Fibrovascular polyps

Histopathologic discrepancies between endoscopic forceps biopsy and endoscopic resection specimens in superficial esophageal squamous neoplasms

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2019
Endoscopic forceps biopsy results that reflect the final pathologic results of an entire lesion are essential for making accurate diagnoses and appropriate therapeutic decisions for patients with superficial esophageal squamous neoplasms (SESNs).

Multiple primary malignant neoplasms in patients with esophageal cancer

Diseases of the Esophagus, 2000
This study aims to elucidate the incidence and the therapeutic and prognostic implications of co-existent non-esophageal primary malignant neoplasms in patients with esophageal cancer. Between 1974 and 1997, 33 patients with esophageal cancer treated at the Nippon Medical School Hospital were documented as having multiple primary malignant neoplasms ...

Preventing esophageal strictures with steroids after endoscopic submucosal dissection in superficial esophageal neoplasm

Journal of Digestive Diseases, 2019
ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the efficacy of prophylactic steroid administration in preventing post‐endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) esophageal stricture and to determine risk factors for these strictures.MethodsPatients who underwent ESD for superficial esophageal neoplasms with a mucosal defect affecting >75% of the esophageal ...
