Current endoscopic ultrasound-guided approach to incidental subepithelial lesions: optimal or optional?
Subepithelial lesions (SEL) are identified during endoscopic procedures on a regular basis. They can occur anywhere in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and are located beneath the normal epithelial layer, which explains why a tissue diagnosis is difficult to obtain with routine biopsies. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is used to further characterize these lesions. EUS can distinguish intramural les...
متن کاملPrevalence of Gastrointestinal Tract Lesions in Patients with Iron-Deficiency Anemia
Background: the Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a common cause of referral to medical departments. Chronic gastrointestinal (GI) blood loss is important cause of IDA and also an alarming sign of serious underlying disease. The information concerning ideal evaluation of the gastrointestinal tract in patients with the IDA is scant. We designed a prospective study to determine the frequency of GI ...

متن کاملComment on "Medical Management and Outcome of Paraquat Poisoning in Ahvaz, Iran: A Hospital-Based Study"
Dear editor, We read the recent article of Rahmani et al entitled "Medical Management and Outcome of Paraquat Poisoning in Ahvaz, Iran: A Hospital-Based Study" in your journal (1). In their study they performed upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy as a routine for all paraquat poisoned patients, because they considered paraquat a caustic agent and that it may cause severe mucosal injuries in e...
متن کاملThe role of endoscopic ultrasound in evaluation of gastric subepithelial lesions.
A subepithelial mass is a common finding during endoscopic procedures. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is an important diagnostic modality in the evaluation of subepithelial lesions of the gastrointestinal tract. EUS is the diagnostic test of choice to assess the size, margins, the layer of origin, echotexture, and to differentiate between an intramural and extramural lesion. However, the EUS imagi...
متن کاملRole of Endoscopic Ultrasonography in Guiding Treatment Plans for Upper Gastrointestinal Subepithelial Tumors
Gastrointestinal (GI) subepithelial tumors (SETs) are usually observed incidentally by endoscopy and have diverse prognoses, varying from benign to potentially malignant. When a GI SET is suspected, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is the most accurate diagnostic method to differentiate it from extraluminal compression. To determine the nature of GI SETs, EUS is also the most accurate diagnosti...
