ABSTRACT Schinzel‐Giedion Syndrome (SGS) is an ultra‐rare, multisystem, genetic developmental disorder caused by gain‐of‐function pathogenic variants in the SETBP1 gene. No standard of care (SoC) recommendations currently exist. To assess expert opinion on SoC for individuals with SGS using a modified Delphi method.

Successful Treatment of Recurrent Airway Stenosis With Paclitaxel‐Coated Balloons: A Case Report
Here, we present a patient with recurrent bronchial stenosis who, despite undergoing multiple bronchoscopic dilation procedures, achieved sustained airway patency only after the addition of a paclitaxel‐coated balloon to the therapeutic regimen. ABSTRACT Although current treatment strategies for nonmalignant airway stenosis may offer short‐term relief,

Key Clinical Message We present a 17‐year‐old female with a childhood clinical diagnosis of Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS), however later genetic testing identified compound heterozygous variants in TAF6, consistent with AYS. This case report adds to the phenotypic spectrum observed in AYS, and draws connections to transcriptional pathways between ...

Safety and Early Clinical Outcomes Following Repair of Very Large Hiatus Hernia in Octogenarians
Very large hiatus hernias are often symptomatic, impact quality of life, and are increasingly encountered in aging populations. Laparoscopic repair offers excellent clinical outcomes. However, surgeons can be reluctant to offer surgery to the elderly due to concerns about morbidity and mortality.

Long term GERD symptom control was improved after SGAF compared to SG. Weight loss outcomes were similar after SGAF compared to SG. GERD symptoms were worse after SG without fundoplication in most patients. Abstract Background Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is a significant problem after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG). This study aimed to

Phase concept: Novel dynamic endoscopic assessment of intramural antireflux mechanisms (with video)
Objectives The gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) consists of various anatomical components that together form a barrier to prevent reflux of gastric content. This study introduces a novel phase concept to dynamically evaluate the antireflux barrier (ARB) during endoscopy and analyzes its functionality.
