The role of endoscopic treatment of cholestasis is well codified as an alternative or adjuvant therapy to surgery, particularly in those cases where non malignant cause has been identified. Non-neoplastic cholestasis therefore benefits very substantially from endoscopic treatment in a context where the traditional surgical approach presents limitations in terms of morbidity and mortality. It should be borne in mind, however, that the two approaches are strictly complementary for the correct management of these patients.

Objective: Skull base chordomas (SBCs) often present with cranial nerve (CN) VI deficits. Studies have not assessed the prognosis and predictive factors for CN VI recovery among patients presenting with CN VI deficits.
Methods: The medical records of patients who underwent resection for primary chordoma from 2001 to 2020 were reviewed.
The Coexistence of Carotico-Clinoid Foramen and Interclinoidal Osseous Bridge: An Anatomo-Radiological Study With Surgical Implications.
Oper Neurosurg (Hagerstown)
February 2025
Rhoton Neurosurgery and Otolaryngology Surgical Anatomy Program, Mayo Clinic, Rochester , Minnesota , USA.
Background And Objectives: The coexistence of complete carotico-clinoid bridge (CCB), an ossification between the anterior (ACP) and the middle clinoid (MCP), and an interclinoidal osseous bridge (ICB), between the ACP and the posterior clinoid (PCP), represents an uncommonly reported anatomic variant. If not adequately recognized, osseous bridges may complicate open or endoscopic surgery, along with the pneumatization of the ACP, especially when performing anterior or middle clinoidectomies.
Methods: According to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for Scoping Reviews guidelines, a systematic scoping review was conducted up to June 5, 2023.
Risk-based triage strategy by extended HPV genotyping for women with ASC-US cytology.
Ann Med
December 2025
Department of Gynecologic Oncology, Women's Hospital, School of Medicine Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China.
Objective: We attempted to evaluate the immediate high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion-cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2/3 or worse (HSIL-CIN2+/3+, hereafter referred to as CIN2+/3+) risk of specific human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype and form the precise risk-based triage strategy for atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) women.
Methods: The clinical data of ASC-US women who underwent HPV genotyping testing and colposcopy were retrospectively reviewed. The distribution and CIN2+/3+ risks of specific HPV genotype were assessed by three approaches.
Risk Factors for Symptoms in Patients With Heterotopic Gastric Mucosa in the Upper Esophagus.
Gastroenterol Res Pract

Department of Gastroenterology, Tongji Institute of Digestive Diseases, Tongji Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, Shanghai, China.
This study is aimed at comparing the clinical characteristics and histological types of symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with heterotopic gastric mucosa in the upper esophagus (HGMUE) and exploring the factors influencing the occurrence and severity of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) symptoms in these patients. HGMUE is a potential cause of LPR symptoms. This retrospective analysis evaluated 70 patients with HGMUE using a detailed questionnaire.
