Successful endoscopic resection by using gel immersion and the technique of endoscopic papillectomy for a tumor adjacent to the papilla of Vater
Post written by Tomoaki Tashima, MD, PhD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Saitama Medical University International Medical Center, Saitama, Japan. A 69-year-old woman presented with a flat elevated tumor adjacent to the papilla of Vater (POV). Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was selected for en bloc resection of the tumor and to determine a definitive pathological diagnosis. …

A case of endoscopic minor duodenal papillectomy after pancreatic stent placement using an endoscopic ultrasonography-guided rendezvous method
Post written by Sho Takahashi, MD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Graduate School of Medicine, Juntendo University, Tokyo, Japan. We report a case of the inside pancreatic stenting papillectomy method for the minor duodenal papilla using the EUS-guided rendezvous method. Endoscopic papillectomy is a minimally invasive procedure for duodenal papillary tumors. However, it is often …
Optimal mode and power output of electrosurgical units for endoscopic papillectomy based on animal experiments and a preliminary clinical study (with videos)
Post written by Kenjiro Yamamoto, MD, from the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Tokyo Medical University, Tokyo, Japan. In this study, we conducted animal experiments to evaluate incision force and coagulation effect in various settings of the endoCUT mode with the VIO (Erbe, Tübingen, Germany) series. We determined the optimal electrosurgical unit (ESU) settings for …
Endoscopic submucosal dissection for a laterally spreading ampullary carcinoma
Post written by Osamu Dohi, MD, PhD, from Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine Graduate School of Medical Science, Kyoto, Japan. We performed endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for a laterally spreading ampullary carcinoma 3 cm in size because it was expected to be difficult to completely resect the lesion by endoscopic papillectomy …
