Predictors of Delayed Recovery in Ambulatory Advanced Endoscopic Procedures
ABSTRACT Background There is a scarcity of data evaluating patient‐related outcomes of advanced or complex endoscopy (ACE) through the post‐anesthesia recovery course. Yet, gastrointestinal distress following ACE can occur commonly, and this may impact recovery length of stay and the approach to post‐anesthesia care.

ABSTRACT Objective Gel‐immersion endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (GI‐EIS) addresses the technical challenges in intravariceal injection for esophageal varices (EVs). However, gel accumulation may obscure the variceal morphology. Thus, we developed GI‐EIS under texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) and evaluated its effectiveness.

ABSTRACT Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used for early esophageal cancer, even in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Corticosteroids, administered orally or by local injection, are often used to prevent post‐ESD esophageal stricture. However, their safety in patients with decompensated LC and refractory ascites remains unclear. A man
