Huge liposarcoma of esophagus resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection: case report with video.

ABSTRACT: Liposarcoma is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas occurring in adults, but it rarely occurs in the gastrointestinal tract and more uncommonly in the esophagus. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 19 reported cases of esophageal liposarcoma in the literature published in English language up to the year 2008, and they were all treated by surgical methods. Here, we report a case of primary liposarcoma of the esophagus which was treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). ESD was well tolerated in this patient, suggesting that it may be a therapeutic option for primary esophageal sarcomas.

Gastric Adenocarcinoma with Enteroblastic Differentiation Resected through Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection: A Case Report.

Project description:IntroductionGastric adenocarcinoma with enteroblastic differentiation (GAED) is a rare histological type of gastric adenocarcinoma that occurs in the stomach and is known for its aggressive behavior. GAED is diagnosed histopathologically and is often advanced at the time of diagnosis.Case presentationWe report the case of a 70-year-old male with a 20-mm superficial depressed lesion on the anterior wall of the antrum. Histological examination of the endoscopic submucosal dissection specimen revealed that the tumor was composed of dilated or slit-like branching tubules; additionally, the tumor cells had clear cytoplasm resembling that of the fetal digestive tract. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for Glypican-3 and alpha-fetoprotein. A pathological diagnosis of GAEDs was established. GAED was found in approximately 30% of all the tumor cells and showed lymphatic invasion. The patient has been under recurrence-free follow-up for approximately 1 year after the endoscopic submucosal dissection.ConclusionIn order to detect a large number of cases, immunostaining should be aggressively performed if morphological findings are suspicious for GAED.

Huge Lymphangioma of the Esophagus Resected by Endoscopic Piecemeal Mucosal Resection.

Project description:We present an unusual case of a 41-year-old male patient with a large lymphangioma of the esophagus. Endoscopy revealed that the structure measured 60 × 10 mm in the mucosa and the submucosa and had a heterogenous echo pattern. The esophageal mass was successfully resected by endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection. However, most esophageal lymphangiomas that are larger than 2 cm in diameter reported in the literature can be removed only through open surgery. Thus far, we know of no reported cases of endoscopic resection as a treatment for this case.

Successful Endoscopic Resection of Primary Rectal Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma by Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection: A Case Report.

Project description:Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma arises in extra-nodal sites from the malignant transformation of B lymphocytes that are mainly triggered by infection or autoimmune process. MALT lymphoma is frequently detected in the gastrointestinal tract. As the causal relationship between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and gastric MALT lymphoma, it was well-established that early-stage gastric MALT lymphoma could be cured by H. pylori eradication, and about 50-95% of cases achieved complete response with anti-H. pylori treatment. Compared to the stomach which is the most involved site due to the high prevalence of H. pylori infection, the colorectum is rarely affected. Primary rectal MALT lymphoma is a rare malignancy, and there are no specific therapeutic strategies so far. Here we report a case of rectal MALT lymphoma successfully resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). ESD serves as a novel strategy to cure small localized rectal MALT lymphomas to avoid unnecessary surgery or chemo-radiotherapy.

Endoscopic Submucosal Tunnel Dissection as a Novel Therapeutic Technique in Patients With Barrett's Esophagus.

Project description:With the ameliorated resectability prowess of endoscopic techniques, a myriad of diseases previously treated by major ablative surgeries are now endoscopically curable. Endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) is a relatively new technique that has diversified endoscopic application. Although ESTD has frequently been used for the resection of esophageal neoplastic lesions, the clinical evidence pertaining to its efficacy in the treatment of circumferential Barrett's esophagus remains sparse. In this study, we evaluated ESTD as a potential therapeutic technique in patients with Barrett's esophagus-related high-grade dysplasia. The tunneling strategy helped achieve complete en bloc resection at an increased dissection speed, without any procedural complications. This article illustrates that ESTD can be a feasible, safe, and effective treatment for dysplastic Barrett's esophagus. Future research should aim to stratify the potential risks and complications associated with this optimization of endoscopic submucosal dissection in patients with superficial esophageal lesions.

Successful traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection using dental floss and a clip for a huge superficial nonampullary duodenal epithelial tumor with severe fibrosis (with video).

Project description:Recently, traction-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) using a clip and thread was reported as useful for treating lesions in the esophagus, stomach, and colorectum in terms of shortening the duration of the procedures and reducing the risk of intraoperative perforation. However, no traction method using the thread and clip for duodenal ESD as described in this article has been reported to date. We report a case in which traction-assisted ESD using dental floss and a clip was successfully performed on a huge superficial nonampullary duodenal epithelial tumor accompanied by severe fibrosis caused by preoperative biopsies. A 65-year-old woman had a 55-mm flat-elevated tumor in the second part of the duodenum. Severe fibrosis of the submucosal layer was expected due to repeated biopsies at the same site by the patient's previous endoscopist. We selected ESD for this lesion, and the initial incision was started from the side proximal to the lesion, but it was difficult to insert the scope under the submucosal layer directly beneath the biopsy scar. Therefore, traction with an endoclip and dental floss was performed to lift the lesion. Excellent traction allowed safe resection of the fibrotic part under accurate visual observation. Finally, the lesion was resected en bloc without adverse events. Traction-assisted ESD using dental floss and a clip is likely to be an effective adjunctive technique for quick, safe, and successful resection of lesions in the duodenum on which it is difficult to perform ordinary ESD and that have a high probability of intraoperative perforation and massive bleeding.

A modified endoscopic submucosal dissection for a superficial hypopharyngeal cancer: a case report and technical discussion.

Project description:BackgroundAdequate working space and a clear view for the dissected lesion are crucial for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Pharyngeal ESD requires that an otorhinolaryngologist creates working space by lifting the larynx with a curved laryngoscope. However, many countries do not have this kind of curved laryngoscope, and the devices could interfere with endoscope because of the narrow space of the pharynx. To overcome these issues, we used a transparent hood (Elastic Touch, slit and hole type, M (long), Top company, Tokyo Japan) instead of the curved laryngoscope to create adequate working space by pushing the larynx, and pharyngeal ESD could be done by gastroenterologists.Case presentationA 64-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital because of chronic persistent swallowing dysfunction for 2 years. Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a superficial hypopharyngeal cancer in the right pyriform sinus. We used a transparent hood (Elastic Touch, slit and hole type, M (long), Top company, Tokyo Japan) instead of the curved laryngoscope to create adequate working space by pushing the larynx, and dental floss tied to a haemoclip was applied to create counter traction during ESD. The lesion was pathologically confirmed as superficial squamous cell carcinoma and resected completely.ConclusionsThis is the first report of modified ESD for a superficial hypopharyngeal cancer. The modified ESD enables early pharyngeal superficial cancer to be removed completely under endoscope by gastroenterologist.
