Mar 23rd, 2023 - Tubulovillous adenomas are colonic polyps with relatively high potential for malignancy that are typically identified on colonoscopy. We present a case of colonic tubulovillous adenoma first discovered on gynecologic transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS)...

Mar 7th, 2023 - Combined endoscopic robotic surgery is a surgical technique that modifies traditional endoscopic laparoscopic surgery with robotic assistance to aid in the removal of complex colonic polyps. This technique is previously described in the literature...

Feb 28th, 2023 - Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome is a rare genetic syndrome caused by pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variants in the FLCN gene. Patients with BHD syndrome have an increased risk of fibrofolliculomas, pulmonary cysts, pneumothorax and renal ...

Feb 25th, 2023 - Sporadic colorectal cancer arises from an adenoma. As mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumor suppressor gene have been frequently detected in colorectal adenomas, the APC gene is considered a gatekeeper in colorectal carcinogenesi...

Feb 15th, 2023 - Large (≥20 mm) nonpedunculated colorectal polyps (LNPCPs) may have synchronous LNPCPs in up to 18% of cases. The nature of this relationship has not been investigated. We aimed to examine the relationship between individual LNPCP characteristics a...

Nov 10th, 2022 - This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the CapsoCam Colon (CV-3) endoscope system for the detection of colonic polyps.

Oct 3rd, 2022 - Endoscopic resection of large colonic polyps is preferred over Surgical resections due to lower morbidity and preservation of the colon and its functions. The use of submucosal injection is essential for a successful resection (EMR/ ESD). Injectio...

Aug 16th, 2022 - The endoscopist performances in the optical diagnosis (OD) of colonic polyps with the available technologies vary widely across centers and across endoscopists. The OD process is strictly related to the operator training and expertise. Most of the...

Aug 5th, 2022 - Prospective study of accuracy of colonic polyp characterisation in vivo using high resolution white light endoscopy, narrow band imaging and chromoendoscopy.

Jul 25th, 2022 - Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common cancer in Hong Kong with more than 5,600 new cases annually. There is prevailing evidence of increasing trend of young onset CRC globally. Early detection and endoscopic resection of pre-malignant colonic...

Sep 28th, 2022 - Temporarily stopping antithrombotic agents was linked with a higher risk of thromboembolic events after colonoscopy, according to a retrospective cohort study in China. Among over 6,000 patients, interruption of at least two such agents was associ...

May 23rd, 2022 - A subanalysis of anticoagulant types reveals that, despite no overall benefit for prophylactic polypectomy clipping, there are differences by subgroup: There was a significantly lower bleeding in patients on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and ...

May 13th, 2022 - A subanalysis of anticoagulant types reveals that, despite no overall benefit for prophylactic polypectomy clipping, there are differences by subgroup: There was a significantly lower bleeding in patients on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and.

Mar 24th, 2022 - A next-generation ink for endoscopic tattooing of the colon diffuses less and is more "biocompatible" than existing inks, which could help identify complex colonic polyps or tumors for removal. (American Chemical Society) Positive topline data fro...

Apr 2nd, 2021 - John P. Leonard, MD: Before we move to the targeted therapies, I’m going to put you all on the spot. I’m going to give you 4 general scenarios. What’s your typical go-to regimen? We’ve talked about all of the nuances, and we sliced and diced the p...
