A 77-year-old male underwent gastroscopy in our institution. Conventional endoscopic examination revealed two ectopic gastric mucosas (EGMs) located about 17cm from the incisors. One of the EGMs was about 0.6cm in size and was round with a flat surface and a slight uplift in the center. The boundary of the uplift was clear and the villous structure disappeared. Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) showed irregular microvessels with a fine network pattern at the uplift, and there appeared to be small and punctate crypt opening (CO) in the glandular ducts. Then we performed acetic acid staining and found that the lesion showed dense and small CO clearly, suggesting differentiated gastric cancer. Histopathologic diagnosis of the biopsy specimen from the lesion was high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) underpins approximately 90% of squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) of the anus and perianal region. These tumors usually arise in association with precursor lesions such anal intraepithelial neoplasia/ high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (AIN 3/ HSIL), whereas a small subset of HPV-negative cancers may harbor mutations in TP53. Recently, vulvar lesions termed differentiated exophytic vulvar intraepithelial lesion/vulvar acanthosis with altered differentiated (DEVIL/VAAD) have been recognized as HPV-independent, TP53 wild-type precursors for vulvar carcinoma; however, analogous anal lesions have not been described.

In 2012, the Department of Visceral Surgery of the Lausanne University Hospital CHUV implemented a dedicated high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) outpatient clinic for surveillance and follow-up purposes. This 10-year longitudinal study analyzed 537 patients (2214 visits) using a structured screening protocol. Dysplastic lesions were detected in 49% of patients, predominantly low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSILs, 74%).

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and accuracy of esophageal sponge cytology in screening esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
Methods: From May 2021 to June 2022, an opportunistic screening was performed in people aged 40-75 from a high-risk region for ESCC. Using an esophageal cell collector that was independently developed in China for esophageal sponge cytology, a positive cytology was determined as detection of atypical squamous cells or more severe lesions.

Background: Non-invasive treatments, such as 5-Aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (5-ALA-PDT), has gained increasing attention among women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2) who have fertility requirements. To compare the effectiveness of 5-ALA-PDT and loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) in patients with CIN2, we conducted this prospective cohort study in Chinese patients with CIN2.
Methods: 229 patients with CIN2 were enrolled.

Background/objectives: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the primary cause of high-grade cervical lesions and cervical cancer worldwide. In Norway, HPV vaccination was introduced in 2009 for seventh-grade girls and extended through a catch-up program from 2016 to 2019 for women born between 1991 and 1996. This study evaluates the impact of the catch-up vaccination program on the incidence of HPV and high-grade cervical lesions in Troms and Finnmark.
