Changes in neuromuscular structure and functions of human colon during ageing are region-dependent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objective: To determine if human colonic neuromuscular functions decline with increasing age.Design: Looking for non-specific changes in neuromuscular function, a standard burst of electrical field stimulation (EFS) was used to evoke neuronally mediated (

Biomechanical Phenotyping Reveals Unique Mechanobiological Signatures of Early‐Onset Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a unique physical signature of colorectal cancer in younger adults: their tissues are mechanically stiffer than those in older patients with the same cancer. Furthermore, stromal remodeling in early‐onset colorectal cancer promotes epithelial mechanotransduction and proliferation, showing how mechanical alterations in the tissue ...

Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes Following Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction for Colon Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) in colon cancer surgery raises concerns about intra‐abdominal infection, peritoneal seeding, and local recurrence due to possible tumor cell implantation. This systematic review and meta‐analysis compares complete intracorporeal resection with NOSE versus conventional laparoscopic colon ...

Unusual cause of right iliac fossa pain: sigmoid perforation due to ingested rabbit bone. Case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Disorders of an organ not usually found in the right iliac fossa, such as the sigmoid colon, are an uncommon cause of right iliac fossa pain. We present a case of right iliac fossa pain caused by a sigmoid perforation due to involuntary ingestion of a ...

Endocuff Vision Reduces Inspection Time Without Decreasing Lesion Detection in a Randomized Colonoscopy Trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background & Aims Mucosal exposure devices improve detection of lesions during colonoscopy and have reduced examination times in uncontrolled studies. We performed a randomized trial of Endocuff Vision vs standard colonoscopy to compare differences in ...

First Successful Regeneration of a Structurally Native‐Like Colon Using a Bioabsorbable Polymer Sheet

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrated that a bioabsorbable polymer sheet (BAPS) can regenerate approximately half the circumference of the colon with native‐like structure and function in an experimental setting. As the model involved immediate closure after perforation and did not reproduce peritonitis, caution is required when considering clinical applicability ...

Diverticulitis in the sigmoid colon presenting with only lower anterior chest pain

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2021
An 80‐year‐old man who presented with only lower anterior chest pain was diagnosed as sigmoid colon diverticulitis. His chest pain was considered to be referred pain from a disease at sigmoid colon, which should be suspected when other major causes of ...

Screening Relevance of Sessile Serrated Polyps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Conventional adenomas have historically been considered to be the only screening-relevant colorectal cancer (CRC) precursor lesion. The prevailing paradigm was that most CRCs arise along the chromosomal instability pathway, where adenomas accumulate ...

Perioperative and Oncological Outcomes of Colorectal Cancer Surgery in Obese Patients: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The prognostic value of the log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) across BMI categories was investigated in patients undergoing colorectal cancer resection. The exploratory evidence demonstrates that LODDS serves as a strong prognostic marker, and its adverse effect may be more pronounced in patients with higher BMI.
