How secure can we expect the surveillance policies to be after the implementation in T1 polyps with carcinoma?

Approximately 7% of the polyps resected endoscopically have an adenocarcinoma focus, with no previous endoscopic evidence of malignancy. This raises the question of whether endoscopic resection has been curative. Furthermore, there is no consensus on what the endoscopic and histological criteria for good prognosis are, the appropriate follow-up strategy and what are the long-term results.

Has Coca-Cola treatment become the first-line therapy for gastric bezoars, both in general and specifically for western countries?

Phytobezoars is a rare disease and less common in Western countries. The stomach is the primary site for these formations, and endoscopic treatment involving fragmentation and extraction has traditionally been the most effective approach. However, medical treatments using enzymatic and chemical agents, such as cellulase and Coca-Cola, aimed at dissolving the bezoars, have also been utilized, showing varying degrees of resolution success.

Precision in detecting colon lesions: A key to effective screening policy but will it improve overall outcomes?

Colonoscopy is the gold standard for the screening and diagnosis of colorectal cancer, resulting in a decrease in the incidence and mortality of colon cancer. However, it has a 21% rate of missed polyps. Several strategies have been devised to increase polyp detection rates and improve their characterization and delimitation.
