The past four decades have seen an increase in the incidence of early-onset gastrointestinal cancer. Because early-stage cancer detection is vital to reduce mortality rate, mass screening colonoscopy provides the most effective prevention strategy. However, conventional endoscopy is a painful and technically challenging procedure that requires sedation and experienced endoscopists to be…

Mashup Score: 2Per Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) for pediatric achalasia: Institutional experience and outcomes - 1 year(s) ago
The surgical treatment of achalasia by both laparoscopic and endoscopic approaches has been recognized as the definitive management in children. Despite reported low volumes in many centers, there has been an increasing worldwide experience with endoscopic approaches to pediatric achalasia. The aim of this study is to report our institutional experience with per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) as…

Mashup Score: 1Final Analysis of Diagnostic Endoscopic Resection Followed by Selective Chemoradiotherapy for Stage I Esophageal Cancer: JCOG0508 - 1 year(s) ago
Esophageal cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, and survival is dismal.1 The 5-year overall survival (OS) proportion ranged from 10% to 30% in most countries.2 Thus, improving its prognosis is an urgent issue to be addressed. Globally, 85% of esophageal cancer was squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).3 Advances in endoscopic diagnostic technology have increased the detection…

Endoscopic training is a complex process, combining both cognitive and psychomotor skill development and can be challenging for the educator. This challenge extends into clinical practice as quality benchmarks evolve and the path to individual improvement still requires clarity. The aim of this manuscript is to simplify this challenge for educators and clinical endoscopists alike. We review tools…

The environmental impact of common ambulatory hand surgeries has been an area of growing interest in recent years. There were 2 objectives of this study: (1) to quantify the carbon footprint of carpal tunnel surgery and its principal driving components; and (2) to compare the carbon footprints of open carpal tunnel release (oCTR) and endoscopic carpal tunnel release (eCTR).

There is tremendous variation in sedation practices provided to patients undergoing endoscopy. This includes differences in the type of analgesia or anxiolytics given, the type of provider administrating sedation, and geographic differences. Moderate or conscious sedation has historically been the most widespread model used. This has been primarily due to lower cost. However, the use of deep…

Mashup Score: 6Endoscopic management of gastrointestinal bleeding in pediatrics - 1 year(s) ago
Gastrointestinal bleeding in the pediatric population is a rare but serious event. The pediatric gastroenterologist must have an understanding on the need to perform an endoscopy as well as the proper timing of the procedure. It is important for the endoscopist to have an understanding of the different modalities for endoscopic therapy, but it is just as important to know when therapy is not…

Mashup Score: 0Adverse Events with Esophageal Stenting: A Call to Optimize Device and Endoscopic Placement - 2 year(s) ago
Despite technological and procedural improvements, esophageal stents (ES) have high rates of adverse events (AEs) including stent migration, recurrent stenosis, and chest pain. We sought to evaluate predictors and causes for early readmission following ES placement in hospitalized patients.

As demands for faster return to function, improvement in surgical scarring, and minimal disruption to personal schedule have increased, so also have the demands increased for minimally invasive procedures under the wide awake, local anesthetic, no tourniquet method. However, owing to the subcutaneous yet constrained position of the ulnar nerve at the elbow, wide-awake endoscopic cubital tunnel…
