The application of miniprobe ultrasonography in the diagnosis of colorectal subepithelial lesions.
BACKGROUND Difficulty with the proximal lesion approach and durability of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) instruments usually limits its application for lower gaotrointestina (GI) lesions to locoregional staging of rectal cancer. This study investigated the value of colonoscopic miniprobe ultrasonography for differential diagnosis and treatment strategy in patients with colorectal subepithelia...
متن کاملPreoperative Diagnosis of Congenital Esophageal Stenosis Caused by Tracheobronchial Remnants Using Miniprobe Endoscopic Ultrasonography in a Child
Congenital esophageal stenosis (CES) can be classified into three types based on the etiology of stenosis: tracheobronchial remnants (TBRs), fibromuscular hypertrophy (FMH), and membranous diaphragm (MD). It is important to make a differential diagnosis because the therapeutic plan for CES is determined by its etiology. Most cases of FMH and MD can be managed with balloon dilatation, whereas ca...
متن کاملMiniprobe Endoscopic Ultrasonography Has Limitations in Determining the T Stage in Early Colorectal Cancer
BACKGROUND/AIMS Mini-probe endoscopic ultrasonography (mEUS) is a useful diagnostic tool for accurate assessment of tumor invasion. The aim of this study was to estimate the accuracy of mEUS in patients with early colorectal cancer (ECC). METHODS Ninety lesions of ECC underwent mEUS for pre-treatment staging. We divided the lesions into either the mucosal group or the submucosal group accordi...
متن کاملPreoperative classification of submucosal fibrosis in colorectal laterally spreading tumors by endoscopic ultrasonography
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Although endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an established therapy for colon neoplasms including laterally spreading tumors (LSTs), its application to advanced fibrotic lesions is very difficult owing to the thin walls of the large intestine. We examined the ability of preoperative endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) to predict lesion fibrosis in patients undergoin...
