Radiofrequency ablation for early esophageal squamous cell neoplasia.
Esophageal cancer is the sixth most common cause of cancer death in the world [1]. Over 80% of esophageal cancers occur in developing countries [1], and in these areas, 90% of these cancers are esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) [2]. The precursor lesion of ESCC is squamous intraepithelial neoplasia (squamous dysplasia), defined histologically as nuclear atypia (enlargement, pleomorphism...
متن کاملRadiofrequency Ablation Versus Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection in Treating Large Early Esophageal Squamous Cell Neoplasia
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) can potentially be applied for early esophageal squamous cell neoplasia (ESCN); however, no study has directly compared these 2 modalities.We retrospectively enrolled the patients with flat-type "large" (length ≥3 cm extending ≥1/2 of the circumference of esophagus) early ESCNs treated endoscopically. The main outcome meas...
متن کاملThe Spatial Predilection for Early Esophageal Squamous Cell Neoplasia
Early esophageal squamous cell neoplasias (ESCNs) are easily missed with conventional white-light endoscopy. This study aimed to assess whether early ESCNs have a spatial predilection and the patterns of recurrence after endoscopic treatment. We analyzed the circumferential and longitudinal location of early ESCNs, as well as their correlations with exposure to carcinogens in a cohort of 162 su...
متن کاملEndoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early esophageal squamous neoplasia
Esophageal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. It carries a poor prognosis as more than half of patients present with advanced and unresectable disease. One contributing factor is the increased risk of lymph node metastases at early stages of disease. As such, it is essential to detect squamous cell neoplasia (SCN) at ...
متن کاملRadiofrequency Ablation Treatment for Renal Cell Carcinoma: Early Clinical Experience
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the early clinical experience associated with radiofrequency (RF) ablation in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS The RF ablation treatment was performed on 17 tumors from 16 patients (mean age, 60.5 years; range, 43-73 years) with RCC. The treatment indications were localized, solid renal mass, comorbidities, high operation risk, and refusal ...
