Radiographic, endoscopic, and pathological findings were correlated in 20 patients with polypoid esophagogastric lesions. In 16 patients, pathological examination showed chronic inflammatory change and epithelial hyperplasia; the polyp was located on the gastric side of the squamocolumnar junction, usually in association with a prominent gastric fold, and probably represented a localized form of gastritis. In the other 4 patients, the lesion was adenocarcinoma. An inflammatory esophagogastric polyp may be differentiated from polypoid carcinoma when adequate radiographs are available and specific diagnostic criteria are followed. Endoscopic biopsy is recommended if the lesion does not fulfill the criteria of an inflammatory esophagogastric polyp.

Orthopaedic Department, Peking University Third Hospital, Beijing, China.
Objective: During percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar discectomy (PEID), a range of technologies including medical robotics, visual navigation, and spatial registration have been proposed to expand the application scope and success rate of minimally invasive surgery. The use of robotic technology in surgery is conducive to improving accuracy and reducing risk. This study aims to introduce a precise and efficient targeting method tailored for robot-assisted positioning under C-arm fluoroscopy inPEID.

Background: Crown cementation is a common technique for implant-supported prosthodontics. However, for possible slipping of the cement below the mucosal margin, its thorough removal poses some issues. The objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of submucosal cement residues in patients with peri-implant disease by endoscopic visualization and to investigate the potential correlation between the pathological scenario and the spatial position of cement residues.

Objective: Awake, endoscopic spinal fusion has been utilized as an ultra-minimally invasive surgery technique to accomplish the goals of spinal fixation, fusion, and disc height restoration. While many techniques exist for this approach, this series represents a single institution's experience with a large cohort and the evolution of this method.
Methods: The medical records of a consecutive series of 400 patients treated over a 10-year period were retrospectively reviewed.
