Differential LINE-1 Hypomethylation of Gastric Low-Grade Dysplasia from High Grade Dysplasia and Intramucosal Cancer
BACKGROUND/AIMS Gastric epithelial dysplasia is considered a precancerous lesion with a variable clinical course. There is disagreement, however, regarding histology-based diagnoses, which has led to confusion in choosing a therapeutic plan. New objective markers are needed to determine which lesions progress to true malignancy. We measured LINE-1 methylation levels, which have been reported to...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound does not accurately stage early adenocarcinoma or high-grade dysplasia of the esophagus.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Patients with esophageal high-grade dysplasia or mucosal esophageal cancer can be successfully treated by endoscopy. We performed a systematic review of the literature to determine whether endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) correctly predicts the T-stage of early esophageal cancers, compared with pathology specimens obtained by using endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) or surgery. M...
متن کاملEndoscopic fluorescence detection of high-grade dysplasia in Barrett's esophagus.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Early detection and treatment of esophageal cancer in Barrett's esophagus may improve patient survival if dysplasia is effectively detected at endoscopy. Typically, four-quadrant pinch biopsy specimens are taken at 2-cm intervals. This study was conducted to determine whether laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy could be used to detect high-grade dysplasia in patients with ...
متن کاملLow prevalence of submucosal invasive carcinoma at esophagectomy for high-grade dysplasia or intramucosal adenocarcinoma in Barrett's esophagus: a 20-year experience.
BACKGROUND The rate of occult adenocarcinoma at esophagectomy in patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE) and high-grade dysplasia (HGD) has been reported to be approximately 40%. Recently, it has been suggested that this risk may be overestimated. OBJECTIVE Our purpose was to determine the rate of submucosal invasive adenocarcinoma in patients undergoing esophagectomy for BE after biopsy diagn...
متن کاملGene amplification of ERBB2 and EGFR in adenocarcinoma in situ and intramucosal adenocarcinoma of Barrett's esophagus.
We examined 11 cases of carcinoma arising from Barrett's esophagus consisting of two adenocarcinomas in situ (ACIS), two intramucosal adenocarcinomas, and seven overt invasive adenocarcinomas. Overexpression of p53 (implying a mutation of the p53 gene), ERBB2, and EGFR was measured by immunohistochemistry, and gene amplification of ERBB2 and EGFR was measured by fluorescence in situ hybridizati...
