Background: Pyloric gland adenoma (PGA) is a distinct subtype of duodenal adenoma. PGA has been increasingly recognized as a histologically and molecularly distinct entity; however, its endoscopic features have not been precisely described. This study aims to investigate the endoscopic characteristics of duodenal PGA, including the association of their putative precursors, Brunner's gland hyperplasia (BGH), and gastric epithelial heterotopia/metaplasia (GEM/H).

The gastrointestinal tract is a multi-organ system crucial for efficient nutrient uptake and barrier immunity. Advances in genomics and a surge in gastrointestinal diseases has fuelled efforts to catalogue cells constituting gastrointestinal tissues in health and disease. Here we present systematic integration of 25 single-cell RNA sequencing datasets spanning the entire healthy gastrointestinal tract in development and in adulthood.

Resection is recommended for large or symptomatic lesions, but conventional pancreaticoduodenectomy and other procedures can be overly invasive for the lesion. We report a case of Brunner's gland hamartoma resected using laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (LECS).

Two years earlier, gastric foveolar metaplasia had been observed in the bulbs.
