Self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) have been widely used for the palliation of esophageal malignant dysphagia. Stent-related dysphagia is frequent and should raise the suspicion of stent migration, tumor ingrowth or overgrowth. In addition, bleeding has been reported in nearly 7% of patients.

Importance: Kindler epidermolysis bullosa is a genetic skin-blistering disease associated with recessive inherited pathogenic variants in FERMT1, which encodes kindlin-1. Severe orofacial manifestations of Kindler epidermolysis bullosa, including early oral squamous cell carcinoma, have been reported.
Objective: To determine whether hypoplastic pitted amelogenesis imperfecta is a feature of Kindler epidermolysis bullosa.

Background: The association of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and Human Syncytial Virus (HSV) infection with inflammatory and potentially malignant disorders of the oral cavity (OPMD) is unknown. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to stablish the expression of the p16 and HSV proteins, to test potential correlation between those parameters in biopsies from clinically diagnosed oral lesions.
Methods: Immunochemical analysis of 211 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) blocks from 211 individuals was provided.

Background: Oesophageal stenting effectively palliates malignant dysphagia with reported high technical and clinical success rates approaching 90% and a low, though often problematic, complication frequency. This study aimed to benchmark success rates, the incidence and management of complications at a tertiary interventional endoscopy centre.
Methods: This single centre three-year (March 2018-March 2021) study reviewed demographics, tumour histology/ position, and early and late complications of palliative oesophageal stenting.

Basal progenitor cells serve as a stem cell pool to maintain the homeostasis of the epithelium of the foregut, including the esophagus and the forestomach. Aberrant genetic regulation in these cells can lead to carcinogenesis, such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms regulating the function of basal progenitor cells remain largely unknown.
