Endoscopic screening for malignancy in the gastric remnant: the clinical significance of dysplasia in gastric mucosa.
Five hundred and four asymptomatic patients in whom gastrectomy had been performed between 1931 and 1960 were investigated by endoscopy plus biopsy. Ten stump carcinomas were detected (1.98%). In five patients the tumour was limited to the mucosa and was not seen at endoscopy. In three patients with previously noted severe dysplasia intramucosal carcinoma was detected during follow up and in tw...
متن کاملOverdiagnosis of gastric cancer by endoscopic screening
Gastric cancer screening using endoscopy has recently spread in Eastern Asian countries showing increasing evidence of its effectiveness. However, despite the benefits of endoscopic screening for gastric cancer, its major harms include infection, complications, false-negative results, false-positive results, and overdiagnosis. The most serious harm of endoscopic screening is overdiagnosis and t...
متن کاملPotential capacity of endoscopic screening for gastric cancer in Japan
In 2016, the Japanese government decided to introduce endoscopic screening for gastric cancer as a national program. To provide endoscopic screening nationwide, we estimated the proportion of increase in the number of endoscopic examinations with the introduction of endoscopic screening, based on a national survey. The total number of endoscopic examinations has increased, particularly in clini...
متن کاملClinical outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancer in the remnant stomach after gastrectomy
BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) after surgical gastrectomy is a technically difficult procedure because of the limited working space in the remnant stomach as well as the presence of severe gastric fibrosis and staples under the suture line. OBJECTIVE We evaluated clinical results including long-term outcomes to determine the feasibility and ef...
متن کاملPotential long non-coding RNAs to be considered as biomarkers or therapeutic targets in gastric cancer
Long non-coding RNAs are attracting the attention of researchers in many fields. These RNAs are longer than 200 nucleotides and do not encode any protein. A subset of them is reported to be strongly correlated with poor patient prognosis, suggesting a potential role in cancer progression (Esteller, 2011). Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide. Therefore, there is a...
