Indications, stains and techniques in chromoendoscopy.
Early detection of malignancies within the gastrointestinal tract is essential to improve the prognosis and outcome of affected patients. However, conventional white light endoscopy has a miss rate of up to 25% for gastrointestinal pathology, specifically in the context of small and flat lesions within the colon. Chromoendoscopy and other advanced imaging techniques aim at facilitating the visu...
متن کاملDiagnosis of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions and prediction of submucosal invasion of early cancer during colonoscopy
......................................... Received: 31-01-11 Accepted: 22-02-11 Abstract Magnifying chromoendoscopy is an exciting new tool that allows detailed analysis of the morphological architecture of mucosal crypt orifices. In this review, we principally describe the efficacy of magnifying chromoendoscopy and magnifying colonoscopy with narrow band imaging (NBI) for differential diagnosi...
متن کاملConfocal Microscopy in the Esophagus and Stomach
Probe-based confocal microscopy (pCLE) is actively being investigated for applications in the esophagus and stomach. The use of pCLE allows real-time in vivo microscopy to evaluate the microarchitecture of the mucosal epithelium. pCLE appears to be particularly useful in identifying mucosal dysplasia and early malignancies that cannot be clearly distinguished using high-definition white light e...
متن کاملGastrointestinal Endoscopy-Assisted Minimally Invasive Surgery for Superficial Cancer of the Uvula
Previous studies reported that endoscopic resection is effective for the treatment of superficial pharyngeal cancers, as for digestive tract cancers. However, the optimal treatment for superficial cancer of the uvula has not been established because of the rarity of this condition. We present two male patients in their 70s with superficial cancer of the uvula, detected with upper gastrointestin...
متن کاملMagnifying image-enhanced endoscopy for collagenous colitis
Background and study aims We report a case series of 5 patients with collagenous colitis (CC) presenting with chronic watery diarrhea, who were subjected to magnifying, chromoendoscopy and narrow band imaging (NBI). Magnifying chromoendoscopy revealed whitish-clouded, honeycomb-like appearance at orifices of the crypts. NBI with high magnification revealed irregular caliber variation of the su...
