The largest study of endoscopic mucosal resection by the Australian Consortium included 1000 cases and long term surveillance. [2] After exclusion of 79 unresectable lesions, the remainder were treated by endoscopic mucosal resection. Overall 98.1% were disease free at the end of two rounds (typically at 6 and 18 months) of follow up.
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an advanced surgical procedure using endoscopy to remove gastrointestinal tumors that have not entered the muscle layer. ESD may be done in the esophagus, stomach or colon. Application of endoscopic resection (ER) to gastrointestinal (GI) neoplasms is limited to lesions with no risk of nodal metastasis.
Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing with Sensory Testing (FEESST), is essentially a Flexible Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) procedure with a formal sensory test (also known as laryngopharyngeal sensory testing) protocol included used to elicit the Laryngeal Adductor Reflex (LAR) directly using air pulses or direct touch with an endoscope.
Haruhiro Inoue is a Japanese thoracic surgeon and endoscopist best known for the development of the cap endoscopic mucosal resection technique, and the first per-oral endoscopic myotomy performed in humans. [1] He is a professor at Showa University and Director of the Digestive Disease Centre at Showa University Koto-Toyosu Hospital in Tokyo ...
At an early stage, colorectal cancer may be removed during a colonoscopy using one of several techniques, including endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection. [5] Endoscopic resection is possible if there is low possibility of lymph node metastasis and the size and location of the tumor make en bloc resection possible. [142]
Percutaneous (endoscopic) gastrojejunostomy Laparoscopic gastroenterostomy Other gastroenterostomy Incision, excision, and anastomosis of intestine Diagnostic procedures on small intestine Transabdominal endoscopy of small intestine Endoscopy of small intestine through artificial stoma
Antrectomy is suitable for early-stage gastric cancer as complete removal can stop cancer spread. With advancements in endoscopic surgeries, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is a non-invasive choice that is safer than antrectomy for small tumor removals in the distal portion of the stomach. [19]
Endoscopic endonasal surgery is a minimally invasive technique used mainly in neurosurgery and otolaryngology. A neurosurgeon or an otolaryngologist, using an endoscope that is entered through the nose, fixes or removes brain defects or tumors in the anterior skull base .
