Use of a double-lumen cytology brush catheter to allow double-guidewire technique for endoscopic interventions.

Project description:Background and aimsSerial stent placement may be necessary during endoscopic interventions, but the passage of a guidewire alongside an initial stent can be challenging, time-consuming, and sometimes unsuccessful. We describe a modification of a cytology brush catheter to allow simultaneous placement of 2 guidewires to facilitate serial stent placement and demonstrate its application in different scenarios.MethodsThis is a retrospective series of 3 patients with different conditions (acute cholecystitis, pancreas pseudocyst, and severe biliary stricture) in whom placement of a second guidewire facilitated serial stent placement. A step-by-step demonstration of the technique is provided.ResultsSerial stent placement was successful in all patients without adverse events.ConclusionsA modified cytology brush catheter can be used to deliver 2 guidewires simultaneously during ERCP and EUS procedures. This technique may improve procedural efficiency, maintain a safety track, and augment therapy in certain situations.

Endoscopic diagnosis and management of early squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus.

Project description:In recent years, diagnosis of early squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the esophagus has been increasingly emphasized. Utilization of image enhanced technology such as narrow band imaging (NBI) and magnification endoscopy allowed detailed examination of the esophageal mucosa. Different patterns of intrapapillary capillary loops (IPCL) have been proven to accurately diagnose and predict the depth of invasion of the tumors. In addition, the application of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has enabled safe en bloc resection of esophageal lesions. Promising results of ESD have been published and ESD is now the standard of therapy in early SCC of esophagus.

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

Project description: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.

A convenient and reliable method for endoscopic mapping biopsy of cholangiocarcinoma using a double-lumen cytology device.

Project description:Video 1A convenient and reliable method for endoscopic mapping biopsy using a double-lumen cytology device. We developed a method using the external sheath of the CytomaxII double-lumen biliary cytology brush (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind, USA). In this method, the sheath is stabilized by the guidewire, allowing for convenient and reliable biopsy.

ESGE Survey: worldwide practice patterns amongst gastroenterologists regarding the endoscopic management of Barrett's esophagus.

Project description:Barrett's esophagus is a common condition that is widely encountered in clinical practice. This European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) survey aimed to determine practice patterns amongst European clinicians with regard to the diagnosis and management of Barrett's esophagus.Clinicians attending the ESGE learning area at the United European Gastroenterology Week in 2014 were invited to complete a 10-question survey. This survey was programed on to two Apple iPads. Information was gathered with regard to demographics, practice settings, and diagnosis and management strategies for Barrett's esophagus.In total, 163 responses were obtained. Over half of respondents (61 %) were based in university hospitals, the majority (78 %) were aged 30 - 50 and half had more than 10 years' experience; 66 % had attended courses on Barrett's esophagus and more than half (60 %) used the Prague C & M classification. Advanced imaging was used by 73 % of clinicians and 72 % of respondents stated that their group practiced ablation therapy. Most (76 %) practiced surveillance for non-dysplastic Barrett's, 6 % offered ablation therapy in some situations, and 18 % offered no intervention. For low grade dysplasia, 56 % practiced surveillance, 19 % ablated some cases and 15 % ablated all cases. In total, 32 % of clinicians referred high grade dysplasia to expert centers, with 20 % referring directly for surgery and 46 % using ablation therapy in certain cases. Endoscopic mucosal resection was the most commonly used ablation technique (44 %).There has been reasonable uptake of the Prague C & M classification for describing Barrett's esophagus, and ablation is widely practiced. However, practice patterns for Barrett's esophagus vary widely between clinicians with clear guidance and quality standards required.

Case Management of COVID-19 (Secondary Version).

Project description:Case management of COVID-19 is critically important to save lives and reduce the fear and anxiety evoked by this disease in communities. However, most healthcare systems have been overwhelmed in many parts of the world. It is also essential to screen patients to be able to identify those who are likely to suffer from severe disease, to ensure more effective use of medical resources. Disease severity can be determined based on simple vital signs; some laboratory markers are useful adjuncts. Treatment for COVID-19 is largely supportive although a number of repurposed drugs have been evaluated for its efficacy in clinical trials. For example, dexamethasone has now been considered as a standard therapy for severe cases, while remdesivir and tocilizumab are promising agents in selected patient groups.
