Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is the recommended technique for colon polypectomy for nonpedunculated lesions that are >20 mm in size not requiring excision. Dual-channel EMR (DC-EMR) uses an endoscope with two working channels to facilitate easier submucosal injection, snare resection, and clip closure of polypectomy defects. There is also promising early literature indicating that this endoscopic modality can reduce the overall learning curve present for single-channel colonoscopy EMR. This chapter will describe the steps and techniques required to perform DC-EMR, potential complications, recommended postprocedure surveillance, and future directions.

Background: Hepatic glycogen storage diseases (GSD) are inborn errors of metabolism with abnormal storage or utilization of glycogen, a complex disease with significant genetic heterogeneity and similar clinical manifestations. This study aimed to describe the gastrointestinal symptoms and endoscopic features of hepatic GSD, including types Ia, Ib, III, VI, and IX, to provide evidence for etiology and treatment.
Methods: A national cohort survey questionnaire was distributed to patients diagnosed with GSD type Ia, Ib, III, VI, and IX through genetic testing or their parents in mainland China in May 2022.

Background: Identifying factors that influence non-curative resection (NCR) is critical to optimize treatment strategies and improve patient outcomes in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC).
Aim: To investigate the factors influencing the NCR of EGC and to evaluate the predictive value of these factors.
Methods: The clinical data of 173 patients with EGC admitted between July 2020 and July 2023 were retrospectively collected.
Maintenance-phase serum anti-TNF levels are not associated with mucosal healing in pediatric Crohn's disease.

Objectives: Mucosal healing (MH) is a key therapeutic target in Crohn's disease (CD) and is associated with improved outcomes. While adult studies indicate a positive correlation between serum anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) levels and MH, data in pediatric patients is limited. We aimed to define the association of serum anti-TNF levels with MH in pediatric patients with CD during maintenance therapy.

Objectives: This study aims to develop and validate nomograms that utilize morphological and radiomics features derived from computed tomography enterography (CTE) to evaluate inflammatory activity in patients with ileocolonic Crohn's disease (CD).
Methods: A total of 54 CD patients (237 bowel segments) with clinically confirmed CD were retrospectively analyzed. The Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) was used as a reference standard to quantify the degree of mucosal inflammation and assess disease severity.

Background & Aims: There is conflicting literature describing the durability of complete remission of intestinal metaplasia (CRIM) after endoscopic eradication therapy (EET) for Barrett's esophagus (BE). We aim to assess the timeline, predictors and long-term outcomes of recurrence.
Methods: Data on 365 patients who underwent EET for dysplastic BE were collected prospectively between 2008 and 2022 at a Barrett's referral unit.
