To investigate the clinical characteristics and associated factors of colonic polyps in patients with acromegaly....
Clinical characteristics and colonoscopy findings of 86 acromegaly patients who received treatment were retrospectively reviewed, and colonoscopy findings and the correlation with growth hormone (GH)-...
The prevalence of colonic polyps in acromegaly patients was 40.7% and increased significantly with advanced age, especially in those ≥50 years. Multiple polyps (62.8%) and colonic polyps in the left c...
The acromegalic patients are a population with a high prevalence of colonic polyps. GHPA volumes and IGF-1×ULN levels may be predictors of colonic polyp occurrence....
Combined endoscopic robotic surgery is a surgical technique that modifies traditional endoscopic laparoscopic surgery with robotic assistance to aid in the removal of complex colonic polyps. This tech...
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and outcomes of combined endoscopic robotic surgery....

Ninety-three consecutive patients who underwent combined endoscopic robotic surgery from March 2018 to October 2021 were included in the study....
Operative time, intraoperative complication, 30-day postoperative complication, hospital length of stay, and follow-up pathology report results were the main outcome measures....
Combined endoscopic robotic surgery was completed in 88 of 93 participants (95%). Among the 88 participants who completed combined endoscopic robotic surgery, the average age was 66 years (SD = 10), B...
Limitations for our study include a lack of randomization and follow-up rate to assess for recurrence. The low compliance rate may be due to procedure cancelations/difficulty scheduling because of cha...
Compared to literature-reported statistics for its laparoscopic counterpart, combined endoscopic robotic surgery was associated with decreased operation times and resection site polyp recurrence. See ...
ANTECEDENTES:La cirugía robótica endoscópica combinada es una técnica quirúrgica que modifica la cirugía laparoscópica endoscópica tradicional con asistencia robótica para ayudar en la extracción de p...
Sporadic colorectal cancer arises from an adenoma. As mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumor suppressor gene have been frequently detected in colorectal adenomas, the APC gene is cons...
A significant problem encountered in the resection of large, complex colonic polyps is delayed bleeding. This can occur up to two weeks after the procedure and is a significant source of comorbidity. ...
To analyze our experience with adenoma detection rates in patients with liver cirrhosis in a community setting....
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and leading cause of cancer death in men and women in the USA. The majority of CRCs arise from premalignant polyps (adenomas), which are typical...
A total of 351 colonoscopies were performed (2006 to 2019) in patients with liver cirrhosis. Mean age was 62.3 ± 9.4 years, there were 158 females and 193 males. Adenomas were found in 159 procedures ...
Adenoma detection rates in patients with cirrhosis (49%) undergoing elective colonoscopy were higher than rates reported in the literature for LT candidates (22-42%) undergoing standardized screenings...
The fragmentation of polyps affects complete resection confirmation. The primary aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of a novel polyp retrieval bag for reducing the fragmentation rate of c...
Patients with a 5-15 mm colon polyp were recruited and randomized into two groups at a 1:1 ratio. After polyp resection, polyps obtained from patients in the treatment group were extracted via a novel...
From January to July 2022, 225 patients were assessed for eligibility. The study participants included 204 patients, and seven patients whose samples were not retrieved were excluded. Polyp fragmentat...
This study demonstrated that the polyp retrieval bag was safe and feasible for reducing the fragmentation rate of retrieved polyps....
The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05189912, 1/12/2021)....
Colorectal cancer is the second most deadly and third most common cancer in the world. Its development is heterogenous, with multiple mechanisms of carcinogenesis. Two distinct mechanisms include the ...
Large (≥20 mm) nonpedunculated colorectal polyps (LNPCPs) may have synchronous LNPCPs in up to 18% of cases. The nature of this relationship has not been investigated. We aimed to examine the relation...
Consecutive patients referred for resection of LNPCPs over 130 months until March 2022 were enrolled. Serrated lesions and mixed granularity LNPCPs were excluded from analysis. Patients with multiple ...
There were 3149 of 3381 patients (93.1%) who had a single LNPCP. In 232 (6.9%) a synchronous lesion was detected. Solitary lesions had a median size of 35 mm with a predominant Paris 0-IIa morphology ...
We found that 6.9% of LNPCPs have synchronous disease, with NG-LNPCPs demonstrating a greater than 4-fold increased risk. With post-colonoscopy interval cancers exceeding 5%, endoscopists must be cogn...

Pedunculated polyps (PPs) in the colon are usually resected with hot snare polypectomy to prevent immediate postpolypectomy bleeding (IPPB). This study aimed to evaluate the safety of CSP of <10 mm PP...
Patients undergoing colonoscopy from February 18, 2019, to April 24, 2020, and were found to have at least 1 ≤10 mm PP resected with CSP were included prospectively in a continuous quality improvement...
We found 239 eligible polyps in 182 patients. The mean (SD) age was 58.8 (8.3) years, and 61% were males. IPPB occurred in 72 of 239 polyps, corresponding to a per-polyp bleeding percentage of 30.1% a...
CSP can be used for resection of ≤10 mm PPs. It is associated with a lower risk of immediate bleeding than the common perception among gastroenterologists....
Polyp detection through colonoscopy is a widely used method to prevent colorectal cancer. The automation of this process aided by artificial intelligence allows faster and improved detection of polyps...
