Gastroesophageal reflux disease has an increasing incidence and prevalence worldwide. A significant proportion of patients have a suboptimal response to proton pump inhibitors or are unwilling to take lifelong medication due to concerns about long-term adverse effects. Endoscopic anti-reflux therapies offer a minimally invasive option for patients unwilling to undergo surgical treatment or take lifelong medication. The best candidates are those with a good response to proton pump inhibitors and without a significant sliding hiatal hernia. Transoral incisionless fundoplication and nonablative radiofrequency are the techniques with the largest body of evidence and that have been tested in several randomized clinical trials. Band-assisted ligation techniques, anti-reflux mucosectomy, anti-reflux mucosal ablation, and new plication devices have yielded promising results in recent noncontrolled studies. Nonetheless, the role of endoscopic procedures remains controversial due to limited long-term and comparative data, and no consensus exists in current clinical guidelines. This review provides an updated summary focused on the patient selection, technical details, clinical success, and safety of current and future endoscopic anti-reflux techniques. 相似文献

BACKGROUNDPrimary malignant melanoma of the lung (PMML) is a rare and highly malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Here, we report a PMML case diagnosed by computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous biopsy, describe its pathological features and review relevant literature to improve our understanding of this tumor.CASE SUMMARYA 64-year-old Chinese female presented with productive cough for 7 mo. A chest CT scan showed a large and space-occupying lesion in Lingual lobe. Positron emission tomography-CT revealed multiple nodules located in the superior lobe apicoposterior segment of her left lung. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed numerous enhancing nodules, suggesting brain metastasis. Abdominal CT scan did not show any abnormalities. By CT-guided percutaneous biopsy, four pieces of gray and taupe tissues (1 cm length and 0.1 mm in diameter) were obtained. After pathologic examination, the tumor was found to consist of epidermal and nested small round cells, fibrosis and thin-walled blood vessels. The finding was suggestive of malignant melanoma. To confirm the diagnosis, pathological morphology and immunophenotypic features of the biopsy specimens were observed. The patient denied any history of skin tumors. No abnormal lesions were detected in other sites of the body. Molecular testing was positive for wild-type EGFR and KIT gene mutations. Finally, the clinical and pathological findings suggested PMML. CONCLUSIONPMML is very rare, and the percutaneous biopsy tissue is limited. Therefore, comprehensive consideration of histology, immunohistochemistry, imaging, and clinical information is important for the diagnosis of PMML. 相似文献

BACKGROUNDFecal impaction is defined as a large mass of compacted feces in the colon and has the potential to induce a serious medical condition in elderly individuals. Fecal impaction is generally preventable, and early recognition of the typical radiological findings is important for making an early diagnosis. The factors that lead to fecal impaction are usually similar to those causing constipation. Few cases with fecal impaction associated with a diverticulum have been reported.CASE SUMMARYWe present the case of a 62-year-old woman who suffered from abdominal pain and vomiting, had a medical history of repeated acute abdomen and was diagnosed with fecal impaction in the descending colon based on X-ray and computed tomography (CT) imaging. After examination by gastrografin-enhanced colonography following colonoscopy and CT colonography, the fecalith was suspected to have been produced at the site of a large diverticulum in the transverse colon. The fecalith was surgically resected, and a histological diagnosis of pseudodiverticulum was made. There was no recurrence during 33 mo of follow-up.CONCLUSIONThis case highlights the importance of accurate identification and treatment of a fecal impaction. This case indicated that the endoscopic evacuation and subsequent colonography were effective for identifying a diverticulum that might have caused fecal impaction. A fecal impaction was associated with the diverticulum. Consequently, the planned diverticulectomy was performed. Appropriate emergency medical treatment and maintenance treatments should be selected in such cases to prevent recurrence. 相似文献
