Endoscopic resection of giant gastrointestinal stromal tumor at the esophagogastric junction: a case report

BMC Gastroenterology, 2019
Background Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) at the esophagogastric junction are rare and its treatment is complicated and challenging. Endoscopic resection has advantages with less complications compared to open and laparoscopic surgery.

Prospects of application of inhibitors of PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoints in malignant tumors of the stomach and esophagogastric junction

Медицинский совет, 2020
Malignant tumors of the stomach and esophagogastric junction in advanced stages progress quite aggressively, and the prospects for treatment of these patients remain unpromising.

A pivoting Mechanically Controllable Break junction setup enabling partially wet phase MCB-junctions [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
A technique is presented, which creates MCB junctions that can be pivoted to any desirable angle. The MCB junction equipped with a specific glass liquid cell can be used to produce a MCB junction, of which the electrodes are covered with a microscopic layer of fluid, thus producing a partially wet phase MCB junction.

The Merendino procedure following preoperative imatinib mesylate for locally advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the esophagogastric junction

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2008
Background Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) of the esophagogastric junction might pose a major problem to surgical resection. If locally advanced, extended or multivisceral resection with relevant procedural-specific morbidity and mortality is ...

Collision carcinoma at the esophagogastric junction [PDF]

Gastric Cancer, 1999
Atrue collision carcinoma at the esophagogastric junction is rare. In this article, we report colliding double primary cancers of the esophagus and the stomach in a 68-year-old man and discuss this entity. Pathological analysis after total gastrectomy and partial esophagectomy showed the following findings.

Intragastric Endoscopic Assisted Single Incision Surgery for Gastric Leiomyoma of the Esophagogastric Junction

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, 2013
Single port laparoscopic surgery is becoming an alternative to conventional laparoscopic surgery as a new approach where all the conventional ports are gathered in just one multichannel port through only one incision.

Adhesion-induced phase separation of multiple species of membrane junctions [PDF]

, 2002
A theory is presented for the membrane junction separation induced by the adhesion between two biomimetic membranes that contain two different types of anchored junctions (receptor/ligand complexes). The analysis shows that several mechanisms contribute to the membrane junction separation. These mechanisms include (i) the height difference between type-

Magnetic interference patterns in long disordered Josephson junctions [PDF]

Phys. Rev. B 87, 024514 (2013), 2009
We study a diffusive superconductor - normal metal - superconductor (SNS) junction in an external magnetic field. In the limit of a long junction, we find that the form of the dependence of the Josephson current on the field and on the length of the junction depends on the ratio between the junction width and the length associated with the magnetic ...
