For the purpose of arresting hemorrhage from gastric and duodenal ulcer we developed a method of endoscopic local injection of hypertonic saline-epinephrine solution (HSE), consisting of 625mEq/L or 1,250mEq/L sodium chloride with 0.05mg/ml epinephrine. During the period between October 1978 and March 1988, a total 246 patients with peptic ulcers underwent treatment for hemostasis by this method. According to our criteria for the assessment of the hemostatic effect, 231(93.9%) of 246 cases achieved permanent hemostasis, 7(2.8%) achieved temporary hemostasis, and no effect was noted 8 cases (3.3%). From June 1975 to March 1988, a total 366 cases with gastric and duodenal ulcers were operated on at our hospital. By applying endoscopic local injection of HSE, the rate of emergency operation for patients with bleeding peptic ulcers was significantly reduced from 13.4%(22/164) to 1.5%(3/202). From these results, we consider that endoscopic local injection of HSE is valuable for hemorrhage from gastric and duodenal ulcer.

Background: There are multiple surgical approaches for treating symptomatic simple renal cysts (SSRCs). The natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) approach has gradually been applied as an emerging minimally invasive approach for the treatment of SSRCs. However, there are no clear indicators for selecting the NOTES approach for patients with SSRCs.

Transcranial neurosurgery assisted by endoscopy and intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) has become an effective approach for real-time visualization and guidance during tumor resection. This study explores the application of these techniques in falcine meningioma (FM) resection, assessing their feasibility and safety. Eleven FM patients underwent transcranial endoscopic resection with IOUS assistance.

Gastrointestinal tract-related cancers pose a significant health burden, with high mortality rates. In order to detect the anomalies of the gastrointestinal tract that may progress to cancer, a video capsule endoscopy procedure is employed. The number of video capsule endoscopic ( ) images produced per examination is enormous, which necessitates hours of analysis by clinicians.

A 57-year-old female presented with a chief complaint of cough, with productive yellow sputum particularly severe in the morning. Bronchoscopy revealed inflammatory changes in both main bronchi, with abundant white purulent secretions and necrotic material adhering to the luminal surface. Histopathological examination showed chronic inflammatory changes in the mucosal tissue, with mild hyperplasia of the local squamous epithelium and evidence of keratinization in the surrounding area, consistent with a diagnosis of tracheal mucosal keratosis.

Autosomal recessive hypophosphatemic rickets type 2 (ARHR2) is an uncommon hereditary form of rickets characterised by chronic renal phosphate loss and impaired bone mineralisation. This results from compound heterozygous or homozygous pathogenic variants in ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1), a key producer of extracellular inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) and an inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor23 (FGF23). ENPP1 deficiency impacts FGF23 and increases its activity.
