ENDOLUMINAL SURGERY WITH DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES AND VARIATIONS IN THREE DISTINCT COLON LOCATIONS- A VIDEO VIGNETTE
Date
May 18, 2024
Endoluminal approaches provide a less invasive solution for managing complex colonic polyps, preserving the colon and rectum while minimizing major surgical interventions. Three cases of colonic lesions were successfully treated with different endoluminal techniques. A 46-year-old female's rectosigmoid polyp was removed via endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). A 64-year-old male with a transverse colon polyp was treated with ESD. An 83-year-old female with an ileocecal valve (ICV) polyp underwent hybrid ESD/endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). These cases highlight the versatility and organ-preserving benefits of endoluminal surgery, suggesting its wider adoption for enhanced patient care.
BACKGROUND: In the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), there has been a paradigm shift towards the routine use of total neoadjuvant treatment (TNT). Despite its growing acceptance, there are limited studies examining factors predictive of response to TNT…
INTRODUCTION: Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the procedure of choice in patients requiring total proctocolectomy. The reported leak rates after IPAA surgery range from 1-12% with well described significant impact on postoperative morbidity and recovery…
Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) excels in removing large-complex colon lesions, yet its technical complexity often stems from insufficient traction-countertraction…
BACKGROUND: Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) is a highly effective technique for removing large and complex colon lesions. It offers improved rates of en-bloc resection and reduced local recurrence…
