Multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using the second-generation distal attachment cuff device (Endocuff Vision; Olympus America, Center Valley, Pa, USA) have reported conflicting results in improving adenoma detection rate (ADR) compared with standard high-definition colonoscopy without the distal attachment. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs to compare outcomes between second-generation cuff colonoscopy (CC) versus colonoscopy without the distal attachment (standard colonoscopy [SC]).

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has become an important and minimally invasive treatment for early gastric cancer (EGC) with a negligible risk of metastasis not only for differentiated-type (D-type) cancer but also for undifferentiated-type (UD-type) cancer. We aimed to investigate the incidence and characteristics of metachronous cancer after ESD for UD-type cancer, which has not yet been elucidated.

EUS-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD) is a safe alternative to percutaneous cholecystostomy (PT-GBD) for acute cholecystitis. How the procedure compares with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is uncertain. The aim of the current study is to compare the outcomes of EUS-GBD with LC for acute cholecystitis.

EUS-guided biopsy sampling is the method of choice for obtaining pancreatic tissue. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been applied to EUS-guided biopsy sampling and may classify patients based on specific molecular profiles. Our study aimed to compare side-by-side the diagnostic yield achievable by genetic identification of somatic mutations detected with NGS versus histologic and cytologic typing in locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma (LAPC) in samples acquired under EUS guidance.

Although sporadic duodenal and/or ampullary adenomas (DAs) are uncommon, they are increasingly diagnosed during upper endoscopy. These patients have a 3- to 7-fold increased risk of colonic neoplasia compared with the normal population. It is unknown, however, whether they also have an increased risk of additional small-bowel (SB) polyps. Our aim was to establish the prevalence of SB polyps in patients with DA.

The EndoRotor, nonthermal, powered endoscopic debridement (PED) instrument (Interscope Inc, Whitinsville, Mass, USA), is a novel device used in the GI tract. It uses adjustable suction and a rotary cutting blade to precisely resect mucosal and submucosal tissue. Our aim was to assess the technical feasibility, safety, and efficacy of PED using the EndoRotor device.

Endoscopic treatment is recommended for low-grade dysplasia (LGD), high-grade dysplasia (HGD), and colorectal cancer (CRC) with submucosal (SM) invasion <1000 ?m. However, diagnosis of invasion depth requires experience and is often difficult. This study developed and evaluated a novel computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system to determine whether endoscopic treatment is appropriate for colorectal lesions using only white-light endoscopy (WLE).

Artificial intelligence (AI)–based computer-aided diagnostic (CADx) algorithms are a promising approach for real-time histology (RTH) of colonic polyps. Our aim is to present a novel in situ CADx approach that seeks to increase transparency and interpretability of results by generating an intuitive augmented visualization of the model’s predicted histology over the polyp surface.

The number of colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissections (ESDs) for early colorectal cancer is expected to increase in the future; therefore, cost reduction is a clinically important issue. The SOUTEN snare (Kaneka Medics, Tokyo, Japan) is a novel multifunctional snare developed for hybrid ESD at a low price. If ESD can be performed safely using the SOUTEN snare, the same therapeutic effect can be obtained as with conventional ESD at a lower cost. The aim of this prospective, pilot, clinical feasibility study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ESD using the SOUTEN snare (SOUTEN-ESD).

Endoscopists experience upper extremity musculoskeletal injuries. The primary aim of this study was to compare distal upper extremity biomechanical risk factors during colonoscopy with established risk thresholds. Secondary aims were to determine which subtasks during colonoscopy are associated with the greatest risk and to evaluate an intervention to reduce risks.

Loop formation can impede endoscope advancement, destabilize the tip, and cause pain. Strategies to mitigate looping include torque-based reduction maneuvers, variable stiffness shafts, and abdominal splinting. In some cases, these strategies are insufficient, and there is need for novel instruments. Loop formation is of particular concern in colonoscopy, but it can also impact performance of other endoscopic procedures such as enteroscopy and altered-anatomy ERCP. In this case series we demonstrate the utility of a novel rigidizing overtube (Pathfinder; Neptune Medical, Burlingame, Calif, USA) in colonoscopy and other endoscopic procedures where loop management is critical.

Colonoscopy is commonly performed for colorectal cancer screening in the United States. Reports are often generated in a non-standardized format and are not always integrated into electronic health records. Thus, this information is not readily available for streamlining quality management, participating in endoscopy registries, or reporting of patient- and center-specific risk factors predictive of outcomes. We aim to demonstrate the use of a new hybrid approach using natural language processing of charts that have been elucidated with optical character recognition processing (OCR/NLP hybrid) to obtain relevant clinical information from scanned colonoscopy and pathology reports, a technology co-developed by Cleveland Clinic and eHealth Technologies (West Henrietta, NY, USA).
