Background: Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) emerges as a less complex alternative to endos-
copic submucosal resection (ESD) for the treatment of colorectal lesions. We present two clinical cases of complex
colon adenomas resolved using UEMR technique. Case 1: A 56-years-old male patient w...
Resumen Introducción: El cáncer de esófago (CE) constituye la sexta causa de muerte por cáncer en el mundo. La disección endoscópica submucosa (DES) es una técnica que permite la resección en bloque de lesiones del tubo digestivo. Tiene rol curativo en pacientes seleccionados y potenciales ventaj...
Resumen Introducción: El cáncer gástrico es un problema de salud en Chile y su mal pronóstico global se explica por un diagnóstico en etapas avanzadas. El cáncer gástrico incipiente (CGI) se asocia a buen pronóstico oncológico y la disección submucosa endoscópica (DSE) como alternativa de tra...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) has emerged as a revolutionary method allowing resection of colorectal lesions without submucosal injection. Brazilian literature about this technique is sparse. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was evaluate the efficacy and safety o...
Abstract Purpose To present new endoscopic robotic devices in the context of minimally invasive procedures with high precision and automation. Methods Review of the literature by December 2018 on robotic endoscopy. Results We present the studies and investments for robotic implementation and flexib...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Endoscopic mucosal resection is one of the most frequent therapeutic alternatives for large colorectal lateral spreading tumors. There are few data on the prevalence of synchronous lesions on these patients. OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of synchronous colorectal lesions ...
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study retrospectively reviewed 46 cases of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors treated by endoluminal endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFR) microsurgery in our gastrointestinal endoscopy center. We aimed to evaluate the EFR for the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal st...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a complex endoscopic procedure, with high rates of adverse events and technical difficulties. To overcome that problem, many training centers published the importance of animal models for skill acquirement in ESD. However, no study has used...
La disección submucosa endoscópica (DSE) es una técnica endoscópica avanzada que logra la resección curativa de neoplasias superficiales del tracto gastrointestinal, consiguiendo exéresis en bloque con márgenes libres de neoplasia evitando una cirugía. Sin embargo, los tumores localizados en la u...
