Flexible endoscopic gallbladder preserving polypectomy vs. laparoscopic cholecystectomy for gallbladder polyps: A propensity matched analysis
Authors: S. Ullah, J. Zhang, L. Dan, B. Liu
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims Gallbladder polyps are lesions that protrude from the wall of the gallbladder to the lumen. The widespread use of abdominal imaging techniques has led to a dramatic increase in the detection rate of Gallbladder polyps. Gallbladder polyps are broadly divided into nonneoplastic and neoplastic polyps, with cholesterol polyps being the most common nonneoplastic polyps. The laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) remains the gold standard treatment for gallbladder polyps. Herein, we introduce a novel option for the treatment of gallbladder polyps called pure NOTES gallbladder preserving polypectomy(GPP). The aim of this study was to compare the safety and effectiveness of pure NOTES GPP versus LC for gallbladder polyps.

Severe Esophageal Involvement in Bullous Pemphigoid
Authors: A.X. H. Tan
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Abstract Text A 72-year old gentlemen with recently diagnosed bullous pemphigoid was referred by dermatology for new onset odynophagia. The patient underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy which showed severe oesophageal ulceration in the mid to disal esophagus. Esophageal biopsies revealed linear deposits of IgG and C3 along the basement membrane suggestive of bullous involvement. He was started on a tapering dose of 30mg prednisolone, which resulted in significant improvement of his odynophagia. Bullous pemphigoid and mucous membrane pemphigoid, are a spectrum of uncommon autoimmune dermatologic conditions. Pemphigoid disorders involves circulating antibodies that are directed against the basement membrane of the squamous epithelium, with subsequent activation of complement and the inflammatory cascade.

Glasgow-Blatchford score predicts findings on video capsule endoscopy in patients admitted with obscure overt gastrointestinal bleeding. A retrospective analysis
Authors: R. Ballester-Clau, C. Costigan, S. Sengupta, J. O'Connell, T. Manoharan, D. McNamara
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims Several studies have identified individual risk factors predictive of positive findings on video capsule endoscopy (VCE) in patients with suspected small bowel bleeding (SSBB). Glasgow-Blachford Score (GBS) is a recognised tool which identifies patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding who need hospital admission and intervention. Its utility in predicting findings in VCE in patients with SSBB remains unclear. The aim was to assess the use of GBS in predicting findings on VCE among patients admitted with overt SSBB.

NSAID and Capsule endoscopy – Spectrum of Presentation and Longitudinal Follow-up
Authors: N. Nandi, P. Oka, M. G. Shiha, M. McAlindon, R. Sidhu
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)-induced small bowel (SB) injuries constitute a well-established entity, presenting a highly variable spectrum of clinical symptoms and endoscopic presentations. The main differential diagnosis in these patients is Crohn's disease (CD). Limited data exist regarding the long-term outcomes, the natural course of NSAIDs-related SB injuries, and discerning factors for differentiation from CD. This study aims to evaluate the spectrum of presentation at capsule endoscopy (CE) and outcome in patients with documented NSAIDs use.
Water exchange double balloon enteroscopy on a patient intolerant to carbon dioxide enteroscopy
Authors: K.L. T. Lui
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Abstract Text In this case, we present a 77-year-old woman with unexplained iron deficiency anemia who was taking aspirin. Despite previous attempts using CO2 during retrograde DBE, the ileum could not be reached due to the patient's intolerance. After discussing with the patient, it was decided to reattempt DBE using the water exchange technique. With this method, the terminal ileum was successfully intubated, and further insertion to the mid ileum was achieved under conscious sedation. Examination upon withdrawal of DBE revealed non-specific erosions and easy contact bleeding in the distal ileum, which were consistent with aspirin-induced enteropathy. The haemostasis was achieved with two through the scope clips. [1]

Authors: J. Buathong, P. Mekaroonkamol, K. Liengswangwong, J. Karuehardsuwan, A. Phawadee, C. Charnnarong, T. Pothikamjorn, S. Samutrangsi, W. Ridtitid, P. Kongkam, R. Rerknimitr
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims When faced with challenging cannulation, double wire technique (DWT) is a helpful method that aids biliary access. However, pancreatic ductal manipulation increases risk of post ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) and the number of pancreatic wire cannulations that warrant pancreatic duct stent (PDS) placement remain unclear. This study aimed to compare the risk of PEP between conventional single-wire cannulation and DWT. The secondary aim was to assess efficacy of PDS when DWT was used, particularly in centers where rectal indomethacin is not available.

Authors: H. Sawsen, M. Medhioub, M. Yakoubi, M. Mahmoudi, A. Ben Mohamed, A. Khsiba, L. Hamzaoui, M. M. Azouz
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has become the preferred minimally invasive approach for the treatment of common bile duct (CBD) stones . Successful ERCP requires deep cannulation of the common bile duct via the major duodenal papilla . Selective biliary cannulation reportedly fails in up to 18% of cases , though this falls to≤5% in experienced hands.Our aim was to identify the predictive factors for failed biliary catheterism in patients with CBD stone.

The cost implication of a care pathway using biodegradable pancreatic stents versus conventional plastic stents in the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis
Authors: D. Schneider, C. Knox, A. R. Arefin, G. Webster
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims 5F plastic pancreatic stents are recommended for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). However, these patients require further care post-procedure to confirm spontaneous stent passage and repeat endoscopy for stent removal if migration has not occurred (in approximately 20%). The development of a 6F biodegradable (BD) stent (Archimedes, Q3 Medical, Dublin, Ireland), which can be used for the same indications, removes the need for additional post-procedure care. This study aimed to evaluate the cost implications of a care pathway using biodegradable pancreatic stents compared with usual care with plastic stents

For instance, it can mimic malignant tumor or inflammatory bowel disease. The therapeutic approach is based on conservative management with topical therapy and biofeedback, while surgical attitude should be preserved for refractory cases. the aim of this study was to describe the clinical, endoscopic and histological features as well as therapeutic outcome of SRUS.

Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Abstract Text We present the case of a 71-year-old woman with history of dysphagia and recurrent abscess-forming pneumonias secondary to a perforated esophageal diverticulum treated with laparoscopic diverticulectomy. Esophagogram suggestive of diffuse esophageal spasm. Upper endoscopy: corkscrew-shaped esophageal morphology with hypercontractility. High-Resolution Manometry: distal esophageal spasm with hypercontractile contractions. It was performed a POEM with complete resolution of dysphagia and the associated respiratory infections. Epiphrenic diverticula may be linked to esophageal motility disorders in 35-90% of cases. POEM has emerged as an effective and safe treatment option for esophageal motility disorders. [1]

It has been performed for several years in our country, but there are currently few data evaluating its performance. The aim of our study was to evaluate the performance of fine needle biopsy (FNB) in adults undergoing EUS –guided sampling of solid pancreatic lesions.
Comparative carbon footprint and environmental impact of biodegradable pancreatic stent versus conventional plastic stent usage in ERCP
Authors: D. Schneider, C. Knox, H. Asmat, A. R. Arefin, D. Joshi, B. Hayee, G. Webster
Journal: Endoscopy (2024)

Aims Plastic pancreatic stents are widely used for the prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). However, these patients require further care post-procedure to confirm spontaneous stent passage and repeat endoscopy for stent removal if migration has not occurred (in approximately 20%). The development of a 6F biodegradable (BD) stent (Archimedes, Q3 Medical, Dublin, Ireland), which can be used for the same indications, removes the need for additional post-procedure care. This study aimed to evaluate the additional carbon footprint related to the environmental impact of the care pathway using plastic (non-BD) pancreatic stents compared with using BD stents.
