[Endoscopic Interventional Treatment of Precancerous Lesions and Early Carcinoma of the Esophagus - Criteria and Techniques of Local Ablation and Resection].

Endoscopic Interventional Treatment of Precancerous Lesions and Early Carcinoma of the Esophagus - Criteria and Techniques of Local Ablation and Resection Early carcinomas of the esophagus can safely be resected endoscopically and interventionally under very strict conditions (ER). In contrast to ablative procedures (radiofrequency ablation, cryo-ablation, argon plasma coagulation, photodynamic therapy), which can only be recommended for Barrett's or low-grade dysplasia, ER - which is called EMR (endoscopic mucosal resection in adenocarcinoma) or more in-depth ESD (endoscopic submucosa dissection in squamous cell carcinoma) - a defined, histologically examinable preparation. This is required starting with high-grade dysplasia, since 50% of patients with biopsy-confirmed high-grade dysplasia after ER already have an invasive carcinoma in the specimen.

[Complications and Management of Complications After Resection and Reconstruction of the Esophagus].

Complications and Management of Complications After Resection and Reconstruction of the Esophagus A curative therapy of advanced esophagus carcinoma is primarily made possible by radical esophagectomy with lymphadenectomy. Impressive advances in the surgical techniques of esophageal surgery through minimally invasive and robotic oesophagectomy have been made in the last two decades. The perioperative management with prehabilitation, PDK application, early mobilization and early food intake also contributed significantly to a reduction in complications.

Brunner's Gland Adenoma - A Rare Cause of Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Case Report and Systematic Review.

Brunner's gland adenoma is an extremely rare benign small bowel neoplasm, often discovered incidentally during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy or radiological diagnostics. In few cases, it tends to cause gastrointestinal hemorrhage or intestinal obstruction. We report here our experience with a 47-year-old woman with a Brunner's gland adenoma of more than 6 cm in size, located in the first part of the duodenum and causing gastrointestinal bleeding.
