Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic resection of gastric neoplasm in solid-organ transplant (SOT) recipients.
Methods: Between January 1994 and December 2011, the results of endoscopic resection of 17 lesions in 15 consecutive patients who had previously undergone SOT at Asan Medical Center were retrospectively evaluated. We compared clinical outcomes of this group with 1:5 matched non-SOT patients treated by endoscopic resection.

Background/aims: Infection of pancreatic necrosis is one of the leading cause of death in patients with severe necrotizing pancreatits. Because of high mortality rate up to 50%, immediate surgical debridement including pancreatectomy is recommended. However, early surgical treatment still showed high mortality rate and better treatment strategy is required.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 26 patients with AIP with bile duct involvement and 30 patients with classic PSC who were diagnosed during the last decade.
Background/aims: Biliary cystadenoma (BCA) and biliary cystadenocarcinoma (BCACa) are rare cystic neoplasms that usually arise from the liver. We reviewed the clinicopathologic and radiologic findings of 13 cases of intrahepatic biliary cystic neoplasms.
Methods: Seven patients with BCA and 6 patients with BCACa which were pathologically proven within past 10 years were included in this retrospective study.
