Objectives: Patients with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) require continuous medical management throughout their lives. However, few case series regarding the clinical course, polyp surveillance, and treatment, including endoscopic ischemic polypectomy (EIP) for pediatric patients with PJS, were reported. We analyzed the current status and clinical course of pediatric patients with PJS under the management of our institute, including those treated with EIP.

Article Synopsis
  • Patients awaiting heart transplants often require colonoscopies due to bleeding or screening needs, but there's limited research on the safety of these procedures for individuals on inotropic medications or mechanical circulatory support.
  • A study was conducted from 2015 to 2021 with 92 heart failure patients undergoing colonoscopy while on advanced heart failure therapies, such as inotropes or mechanical devices.
  • Results indicated that the most common reason for colonoscopy was cancer screening, with significant findings including 8% of screening procedures revealing advanced adenomas and 17% of bleeding-related colonoscopies identifying sources needing intervention, but no major complications related to anesthesia were reported.

Objectives: A novel self-assembling peptide gel (SAPG) was recently developed for hemostasis during endoscopic resection (ER) as an alternative for electrocoagulation and clip placement. Therefore, this exploratory study aimed to evaluate the hemostatic effect of SAPG on bleeding during ER of the duodenum.

Methods: Patients with superficial duodenal epithelial tumors who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) or cold-snare polypectomy (CSP) between June 2022 and October 2023 were enrolled in the study.
