ABSTRACT Primary esophageal extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) is extremely rare, and its optimal management has not been established. We report a case of primary esophageal MALT lymphoma that was successfully treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).

Pancreatic involvement is rare, and its management varies between surgical and endoscopic interventions. We report the successful endoscopic removal of a toothpick that penetrated the gastric wall and extended into the head of the pancreas.

Are biopsy forceps helpful in the endoscopic evaluation of ulcer diameter?
A hand-made papier-mâché stomach model with hollowed-out ulcers was employed for evaluating the accuracy in estimating ulcer diameters by means of endoscopy. The opened biopsy forceps were also used as a reference marker.

ABSTRACT Background and Study Aims Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a genetic condition that increases the risk of developing colorectal polyposis and cancer, as well as superficial non‐ampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs). In this single‐center retrospective study, we investigated the long‐term clinical outcomes of intensive ...

Submucosal Invasion and Ulceration in Early Gastric Cancer Affect Mucosal Impedance
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate early changes in gastric cancers that are difficult to evaluate using endoscopic imaging through the assessment of mucosal impedance (MI) in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) specimens. Methods In this single‐center prospective cohort study, we included patients who underwent ESD for early gastric cancer (EGC ...
