Introduction: Controversy remains regarding transparent cap-assisted technique improves adenoma detection rate (ADR) in colonoscopy. We aimed to investigate the effect of transparent cap-assisted colonoscopy on ADR and other colonoscopy performance.
Methods: We performed sub-analysis of an international, multicenter, open-label database containing colonoscopy data from 11 centers in 4 Asian countries/regions on patients who underwent colonoscopy.
Early-stage, poorly differentiated, non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinomas are rare, and their clinicopathological features remain unelucidated. Between September 2006 and April 2022, 205 consecutive patients underwent endoscopic or surgical resection for early-stage non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinomas at our hospital. There were no cases of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma among the 188 cases of mucosal carcinoma.

- * A follow-up colonoscopy after 5 months showed significant changes in the colon, now suggesting active ulcerative colitis rather than Crohn's disease.
- * Genetic testing revealed specific mutations, and treatment with colchicine led to complete clinical remission, indicating a possible link to familial Mediterranean fever and highlighting the importance of monitoring changes in colonic inflammation for accurate diagnosis.
Background: Little is known about prognostic factors for patients 85 years or older undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancer. Therefore, this study aimed to identify such prognostic factors.
Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the long-term outcomes and prognostic factors of 143 patients 85 years or older undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancer at a single-center between October 2005 and September 2020.
