Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of residual or locally recurrent (RLR) colonic lesions after previous endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is an attractive but challenging technique. The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ESD with double clip and rubber band traction (DCT-ESD) of RLR colonic lesions.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed all consecutive DCT-ESD procedures for RLR colonic lesions (rectum excluded) performed in two French centers. The frequency of en bloc and R0 resections, procedure speed, additional surgery, and complications were evaluated. R0 resection was also used to investigate the learning curve.
Results: Among the 53 resections, 49 (92.5 %) were performed en bloc and 42 (79.2 %) achieved R0. The median procedure speed was 21 mm/min. There were four (7.5 %) intraoperative perforations and one delayed bleeding; these were successfully treated endoscopically. There was no salvage surgery for complications. The R0 rate increased from 16/26 (61.5 %) for the first 26 procedures to 26/27 (96.3 %, = 0.002) for the last 27 procedures.
Conclusions: DCT-ESD appears to be a safe and effective treatment for RLR colonic lesions after EMR.

Acute ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease of the colon that is becoming increasingly prevalent. Yet, a growing body of evidence supports the efficacy of dietary interventions in preventing acute ulcerative colitis. Fermented beverages have been the focus of research in humans and animals for several years due to their potential to influence overall health functions with an emphasis on gut health.

Background: Thermal damage may lead to inflammation of the peeled mucosal surface during endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).
Aim: To determine the effect of Joule heat on the onset of post-ESD electrocoagulation syndrome (PECS).
Methods: In this prospective study, PECS was characterized by in-hospital fever (white blood cell count: ≥ 10000 μ/L or body temperature ≥ 37.

Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection is increasingly used to treat early-stage colorectal cancer. This study evaluated the feasibility of endoscopic submucosal dissection in this setting and the determinants of lymph node metastasis.
Methods: We reviewed patients who underwent colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection for early-stage colorectal cancer at a tertiary center between 2011 and 2023.

Introduction: In Crohn's disease (CD), lesions are mainly distributed in a segmental manner, with the primary sites of involvement being the ileum and colon. Heterogeneity in colon and ileum results in location-specific clinical presentations and therapeutic responses. Mucosal healing tends to be more readily and quickly achieved in the colon than in the ileum, where lesions are more likely to develop into complex behaviors.

Background: Bone metastases are complications of many cancers, including colon cancer. Whole body bone scan is commonly used to detect bone metastases in these patients. Bone scan findings are sensitive for detecting metastases but with less experience and especially without the use of single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) images, they are less specific.
