Gene expression profiling of laterally spreading tumors

BACKGROUND Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are generally defined as lesions >10 mm in diameter, are characterized by lateral expansion along the luminal wall with a low vertical axis. In contrast to other forms of tumor, LSTs are generally considered to have a superficial growth pattern and the potential for malignancy. We focused on this morphological character of LSTs, and analyzed the gene...

Clinicopathological Characteristics of Laterally Spreading Colorectal Tumor

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Laterally spreading tumor (LST) is a colorectal pre-cancerous lesion. Previous studies have demonstrated distinct LST clinicopathological characteristics in different populations. This study evaluated clinicopathological characteristics of LST in a Chinese population. METHODS A total of 259 Chinese LST patients with 289 lesions were recruited for endoscopic and clinicopath...

These tumors are usually less invasive than protruding or depressed tumors of the same size; thus, we have much freedom in selecting treatment modalities for LSTs. However, a pitfall lurks in the technical difficulties. It is preferable to resect every single tumor in one piece if possible, since e...
