Abstract Background and study aims We previously reported a case series of our first 182 colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissections (ESDs). In the initial series, 155 ESDs had been technically feasible, with 137 en bloc resections and 97 en bloc resections with free margins (R0). Here, we present long-term follow-up data, with particular emphasis on cases where either en bloc resection was not achieved or en bloc resection resulted in positive margins (R1). Patients and methods Between September 2012 and October 2015, we performed 182 consecutive ESD procedures in 178 patients (median size 41.0 ± 17.4 mm; localization rectum vs. proximal rectum 63 vs. 119). Data on follow-up were obtained from our endoscopy database and from referring physicians. Results Of the initial cohort, 11 patients underwent surgery; follow-up data were available for 141 of the remaining 171 cases (82,5 %) with a median follow-up of 2.43 years (range 0.15–6.53). Recurrent adenoma was observed in 8 patients (n = 2 after margin positive en bloc ESD; n = 6 after fragmented resection). Recurrence rates were lower after en bloc resection, irrespective of involved margins (1.8 vs. 18,2 %; P < 0.01). All recurrences were low-grade adenomas and could be managed endoscopically. Conclusions The rate of recurrence is low after en bloc ESD, in particular if a one-piece resection can be achieved. Recurrence after fragmented resection is comparable to published data on piecemeal mucosal resection.

Background. Parathyroid carcinoma is the least frequent malignancy among endocrine tumors. In the most reported series of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism the incidence of carcinoma is less than 1%. Recognition by a surgeon that the parathyroid tumor is malignant, and the performance of an adequate en bloc removal of primary lesion, with histologic diagnosis offer the best treatment of a patient with this unusual malignancy. Case report. We reported a 30-year-old patient with parathyroid carcinoma, primary hyperparathyroidism, and recurrent nephrocalcinosis. Marked hypercalcemia, low serum phosphorus, and substantial elevation of serum parathyroid hormone indicated a diagnosis of primary hiperparathyroidism. General symptoms were anorexia, muscle weakness, back pain and depression. Ultrasonography done before the surgery revealed a 2 cm upper left parathyroid gland with solid and cystic areas. The neck exploration was done with en block resection of the tumor. A histopathological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of parathyroid carcinoma. Over more than a three-year-follow-up, the patient had no evidence of the disease recurrence and his serum PTH and calcium levels remained within the normal. Conclusion. Parathyroid carcinoma is a rare cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. Preoperative diagnosis remains a challenge. Radical en bloc resection of the tumor is the treatment of choice for this malignancy.

Direct invasion of colorectal adenocarcinoma into adjacent structures occurs frequently, but only rarely is the duodenum involved. This study was undertaken to assess the safety and efficacy of en bloc resection of locally advanced right colon carcinoma invading the duodenum. A retrospective review of 49 patients with locally advanced colon cancer, surgically managed between 2000 and 2005, was performed. Forty-six patients underwent en bloc resection of colon and adjacent organs not involving the duodenum. Three patients with duodenal invasion underwent en bloc partial duodenectomy. The mean operative blood loss, length of stay, postoperative morbidity, and mortality compare favorably between these two groups of patients. Of the 46 patients with en bloc resection of other organs, 27 are alive at 12 to 60 months follow up. Two patients with duodenal invasion are alive without recurrence at 15 and 20 months follow up. En bloc resection of colon cancer invading the duodenum can be performed safely because morbidity and mortality rates are comparable to those attending extended resections of other locally advanced colon carcinomas. Overall survival in patients who underwent surgery with curative intent justifies en bloc duodenal resection in selected patients.

Periosteal (juxtacortical) chondrosarcoma (PC) is a well-differentiated malignant cartilage-forming tumor arising from the external bone surface, especially in long bones. The therapy of choice is en-bloc resection and, in general, its prognosis is good. This paper reports a rare case of PC affecting the mandible of a 41-year-old man. The lesion presented as a slow-growing-painless swelling that lasted 2 months. Computed tomography scan showed a tumoral mass arising from the external bone surface, extending into the adjacent soft tissue presenting patchy regions of popcorn-like calcifications. A final diagnosis of PC (grade II) was rendered after biopsy. Hemimandibulectomy was undertaken followed by complementary radiotherapy with 70 Gy. Although no episodes of recurrence or metastasis had been noticed after 18 months of follow-up, the patient died and causa mortis could not be established.

Long Term Follow Up

1 Background: With the progress in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) which enables en bloc resection irrespective of the size of lesion, a therapeutic strategy has become feasible whereby ESD is undertaken first, followed by considering additional treatment based on the results of histologic exploration. In this study, we attempted to clarify the clinical results in patients who had undergone additional treatment after endoscopic resection (ER) for cN0 superficial carcinoma. Methods: Of 140 patients diagnosed as having T1a-MM-SM2 lesions of squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus who had undergone ER between January 1998 and March 2010, 83 patients who received additional treatment after ER (surgery, 27 pts; chemoradiotherapy [CRT], 56 pts.) were the subjects of this study. The mean duration of observation was 45.1 months. Results: The en bloc resection rate was 86%. There were 5 patients (6%) who had complications associated with ER, including perforation in 2 patients, secondary hemorrhage in a patient and pneumonia in 2 patients. Complications associated with additional treatment were noted in 13 patients (15.6%), including secondary hemorrhage, recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis and pulmonary infarction in one patient each, pneumonia in 3, grade ≥ 3 myelosuppression in 5, and syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) and radiation pneumonitis in one patient each. Long-term follow-up revealed no local recurrence and no patients who experienced late toxicity due to CRT. The tumor recurred in 4 patients, the site of recurrent lesion being the mediastinum in 3 patients and the cervical lymph node in one patient, of whom 2 patients died of the primary disease. The 5-year survival rate was 88.4%. Conclusions: Endoscopic resection plus additional treatment for superficial carcinoma of the esophagus did not entail the development of any serious complications; thus, such combined treatment was safe and feasible. The long-term follow-up results were fairly gratifying, and ER with subsequent additional treatment is considered to be valid for patients with cN0 superficial carcinoma of the esophagus.

Abstract OBJECTIVE We performed a retrospective patient chart review to determine the feasibility and safety of en bloc resection of lamina and ossified ligamentum flavum in the treatment of thoracic ossification of ligamentum flavum (OLF). METHODS From January 2000 to June 2006, 36 patients with thoracic OLF underwent en bloc resection of lamina and ossified ligamentum flavum by a burr-grinding technique. The range of resection included one lamina superior and one lamina inferior to the diseased segments. Ossified dura mater was removed if present, and simultaneous repair was carried out. RESULTS The mean preoperative Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score (an evaluation system for thoracic myelopathy with a total score of 11 points) was 5 points (range, 3–9 points). The mean JOA score at the last follow-up visit (mean follow-up period, 3.9 years) was 8.44 points (range, 6–11 points). The range of improvement was from 2 to 6 points, and the mean improvement rate was 60.5% (range, 33.3%–100%). No postoperative aggravation of neurological dysfunction, leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), wound infection, kyphosis, or recurrence occurred. A CSF cyst found in one patient 3 weeks postoperatively was absorbed automatically after 10 months. CONCLUSION The en bloc resection technique described here is both safe and effective.

Abstract Background and study aims Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors in the gastrointestinal tract. Up to the present time, complete surgical excision has been the standard treatment for primary GISTs greater than 2 cm. It is well known that tumor rupture during surgery is an independent risk factor for peritoneal metastasis; however, it is not known whether the risk of peritoneal metastasis increases in cases where the tumor is ruptured during endoscopic resection. Patients and methods A total of 195 patients treated for GIST between January 2014 and December 2016 in our hospital were enrolled in this study. They were divided into two groups according to whether the tumor was ruptured during endoscopic resection. The rate of peritoneal metastasis in patients in the two groups who also suffered perforation was investigated from the follow-up results. Results Approximately 55.4 % of all patients were female and the average age of the study group was 59.0 ± 10.3 years. Of the 195 patients, the tumors in 27 were ruptured and the remaining 168 patients underwent en bloc resection. There was no statistically significant difference in gender or age between the two groups. The median tumor size (maximum diameter) in all patients was 1.5 cm (0.3 – 5.0 cm): 2.5 cm (0.8 – 5.0 cm) and 1.4 cm (0.3 – 4.0 cm) in the tumor rupture group and en bloc resection group, respectively (P < 0.001). Most of the tumors were located in the gastric fundus. At a median follow-up of 18.7 ± 10.2 months, neither tumor recurrence (liver metastasis, peritoneal metastasis, local recurrence) nor mortality related to GISTs were detected. Conclusions Tumor rupture during endoscopic resection of gastric GISTs may not be a risk factor for peritoneal metastasis.

Background and aim Cold snare polypectomy (CSP) is growing in popularity due to its safety and convenience. Its indication is benign tumours such as adenoma and sessile serrated lesions (SSLs) <10 mm in size. CSP for SSLs ≥10 mm in size has not been well examined. In this study, we aimed the feasibility of this treatment regarding therapeutic results and local recurrence. Methods This was a single-centre retrospective cohort study. We reviewed SSLs with or without dysplasia of 10–20 mm that were resected by CSP from 2014 to 2020. All tumours were diagnosed endoscopically as SSLs without dysplasia before CSP with the help of magnifying narrow band imaging or blue laser imaging. We analysed the lesion characteristics, en bloc resection, histopathological diagnosis, adverse events and local recurrence. We analysed risk factors for recurrence, comparing recurrent lesions to non-recurrent lesions. We also compared risk factors for lesions 10–14 mm in size to those for lesions 15–20 mm in size. Results We analysed 160 lesions in 100 patients ( Mage± SD=67.7±10.1 years). The polyp size ( M± SD) was 11.8±2.8 mm, and the en bloc resection rate was 60.0% (96 cases). The rates of massive perioperative haemorrhage, postoperative haemorrhage and perforation were 1.3%, 0% and 0%, respectively. Regarding histopathological diagnosis, two (1.2%) cases showed SSLs with high-grade dysplasia. The recurrence rate in 101 lesions with a median follow-up period of 18 months (interquartile range 12–24 months) was 5.0%. There were no significant risk factors such as tumour size, location, morphology and so on in terms of recurrence. All recurrent cases could be resected by repeat CSP. The recurrence rates of lesions 10–14 mm in size and 15–20 mm in size were 4.7% and 6.3%, respectively ( p=0.713). Conclusion CSP of SSLs ≥10 mm in size according to magnifying endoscopic diagnosis was safe and promising, but the rate of recurrence was slightly high, meaning that close follow-up is required.
