A Case of Mucosal Cancer of the Stomach Treated by Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection after Which Nodal Metastasis Became Evident
An 82-year-old male was referred to our institution for evaluation and treatment of a protruding lesion in the stomach. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) showed a small protruding lesion and a large superficial elevated lesion on the lesser curvature of the stomach (macroscopic type: 0-I and 0-IIa, resp.). CT and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) visualized a small round lymph node (LN) 11 mm in ...
متن کاملPredictive Factors for Lymph Node Metastasis in Submucosal Gastric Cancer
Purpose: Lymph node metastasis is an important prognostic factor in patients with early gastric cancer. Therefore, we analyzed the predictive factors for lymph node metastasis in submucosal gastric cancer and explored the feasibility of minimally invasive surgery. Methods: The clinicopathological features of 317 patients with submucosal gastric cancer, who underwent radical gastrectomy with lym...
متن کاملFrequent Presence of Lymphovascular Invasion in Small Rectal Neuroendocrine Tumors on Immunohistochemical Analysis.
Rectal neuroendocrine tumors (RNETs) have become common in recent years and are good candidates for endoscopic resection (ER). To achieve clear resection margins, more advanced techniques such as endoscopic submucosal dissection, endoscopic submucosal resection with a ligation device, and cap-assisted endoscopic mucosal resection are available for ER. After ER, lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is ...
متن کاملA Case of Early Gastric Cancer Arising from Gastritis Cystica Profunda Treated by Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection
Gastritis cystica profunda (GCP) consists of hyperplasia and cystic dilatation of the gastric glands extending into the submucosa. It occurs in the residual stomach post surgery and in the unoperated stomach. GCP is considered a benign lesion, but there is controversy about its malignant potential. We report a case of early gastric cancer arising from GCP treated by endoscopic submucosal dissec...
متن کاملEndoscopic management of early gastric cancer: endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection: data from a Japanese high-volume center and literature review
As detection of early gastric cancer (EGC) has improved, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) has been adopted as a treatment option for small intramucosal carcinoma. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has enabled high en bloc resection rate for small and large lesions, as well as those with scarring. Moreover, the specimens obtained by ESD facilitate precise histological assessment of curabi...
