Endoscopically, a bulky pedunculated polypoid lesion was observed in the middle of the esophagus and a huge discoid lesion in the lesser curvature. The patient received...
متن کاملConfocal Microscopy in the Esophagus and Stomach
Probe-based confocal microscopy (pCLE) is actively being investigated for applications in the esophagus and stomach. The use of pCLE allows real-time in vivo microscopy to evaluate the microarchitecture of the mucosal epithelium. pCLE appears to be particularly useful in identifying mucosal dysplasia and early malignancies that cannot be clearly distinguished using high-definition white light e...
متن کاملNutrient intakes and adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and distal stomach.
We studied the relationship between nutrient intakes and adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and distal stomach among 124 esophageal adenocarcinoma cases, 124 distal stomach cancer cases, and 449 controls in a population-based case-control study in eastern Nebraska. The residual method was used to adjust nutrient intake quartiles or tertiles for energy intake. We observed significant inverse associ...
