Noninferiority of additional gastrectomy after endoscopic submucosal dissection compared with surgery alone on long-term prognosis: a propensity score matching analysis. J Gastrointest Surg 2024; 28:1519-1525. [PMID: 38964536 DOI: 10.1016/j.gassur.2024.06.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/30/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients in whom endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has resulted in noncurative resection need further surgical treatment. However, the oncologic outcome of additional gastrectomy after ESD compared with surgery alone remains unclear. METHODS The clinical data of 778 patients who underwent gastrectomy for early gastric cancer (EGC) from January 2008 to December 2019 in Ishikawa Prefectural Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Of these 778 patients, 187 underwent additional gastrectomy after ESD [ESD (+) group] and 591 underwent surgery alone [ESD (-) group]. We compared the overall survival and disease-free survival between the ESD (+) and ESD (-) groups, using propensity score matching (PSM) to adjust for baseline characteristics. We also assessed early postoperative outcomes. RESULTS After PSM based on sex (male or female), age, tumor diameter, tumor gross type, and operative procedure, each group comprised 144 patients with no significant differences in clinical background characteristics. After matching, the 5-year overall survival rate in the ESD (+) and ESD (-) group was 90.9% and 87.8%, respectively, with no significant difference (P = .470). In addition, there was no significant difference in the disease-free survival rate (97.6% vs 95.8%, respectively; P = .504). The postoperative complication rate was similar in both groups. CONCLUSION Additional gastrectomy for patients in whom ESD resulted in noncurative resection did not adversely affect the long-term prognosis. Additional gastrectomy after ESD is oncologically acceptable for EGC.

Local recurrence after endoscopic submucosal dissection of gastric neoplastic lesions: special attention should be given also to safety margins. Scand J Gastroenterol 2024; 59:1105-1111. [PMID: 39033387 DOI: 10.1080/00365521.2024.2381130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2024] [Revised: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of local recurrence following gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) remains a clinical concern. We aimed to evaluate the impact of narrow safety margin (< 1 mm) on the recurrence rate. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted across two centers. Cases of R0-ESD with subsequent recurrence were compared to matched controls in a 1:2 ratio in a case-cohort analysis. RESULTS Over a median period of 25 months (IQR 14-43), a recurrence rate of 3% (95%CI 1.7-4.3) was observed, predominantly (13/21) following R0 resections with favourable histology. Endoscopic retreatment was feasible in 18 of 21 recurrences. The proportion of R0-cases where the safety margin in both horizontal (HM) and vertical (VM) margin exceeded 1 mm was similarly distributed in the recurrence and non-recurrence group, representing nearly 20% of cases. However, cases with HM less than 1 mm, despite VM greater than 1 mm, nearly doubled in the recurrence group (7.7% vs. 3.9%), and tripled when both margins were under 1 mm (23.1% vs. 7.7%). Despite this trend, statistical significance was not achieved (p = 0.05). In the overall cohort, the only independent risk factor significantly associated with local recurrence was the presence of residual tumor at the HM (HM1) or not assessable HM (HMx) (OR 16.5 (95%CI 4.4-61.7), and OR 11.7 (95%CI 1.1-124.1), respectively). CONCLUSIONS While not common or typically challenging to manage, recurrence post-ESD warrants attention and justifies rigorous post-procedural surveillance, especially in patients with HM1, HMx, and probably also in those with R0 resections but narrow safety margin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Evidence for endoscopic resection (ER) in elderly patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) is limited. We assessed its clinical outcomes and explored new indications and curability criteria. METHODS We analyzed data from a Japanese multicenter, prospective cohort study. Patients aged ≥75 years with EGC treated with ER were included. We classified eCuraC-2 (corresponding to noncurative ER, defined in the Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines) into elderly-high (>10% estimated metastatic risk) and elderly-low (EL-L) (≤10% estimated metastatic risk). RESULTS In total, 3371 patients with 3821 EGCs were included; endoscopic submucosal dissection was the prominent treatment choice. Among them, 3586 lesions met the guidelines' ER indications, and 235 did not. The proportions of en bloc and R0 resections and perforations were 98.9%, 94.4%, and 0.8%, respectively, in EGCs within the indications. In EGCs beyond the indications, they were 99.5%, 85.4%, and 5.9%, respectively, for lesions diagnosed as ≤3 cm and 96.0%, 64.0%, and 18.0%, respectively, for those >3 cm. Curative ER and EL-L were observed in 83.6% and 6.2% of lesions within the indications, respectively, and in 44.2% and 16.8% of lesions <3 cm beyond the indications, respectively. The 5-year cumulative gastric cancer death rates after curative ER and elderly-high were 0.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.2-0.6) and 3.5% (95% CI, 2.0-5.7), respectively. After EL-L, the rate was 0.9% (95% CI, 0.2-3.5) even without subsequent treatment. CONCLUSIONS The usefulness of endoscopic submucosal dissection for elderly EGC patients was confirmed by their clinical outcomes. Lesions of ≤3 cm and EL-L emerged as new ER indication and curability criteria, respectively. (Clinical trial registration number: UMIN000005871.).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive technique for the resection of superficial gastrointestinal lesions, providing high rates of 'en bloc' and R0 resection. East-West differences in ESD quality indicators have been reported. This study aims to assess feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of ESD for the treatment of superficial gastrointestinal (GI) lesions in a Western cohort. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing ESD at one Italian endoscopic referral center from September 2018 to March 2020 were included in this prospective study. Primary outcomes were technical success, R0 resection rate, curative resection rate, and adverse events (AEs). RESULTS In total 111 patients (111 lesions) undergoing ESD were included. Anatomic site of the lesions was rectum in 56.8%, colon in 13.5%, stomach in 24.3%, and esophagus in 5.4% of cases, respectively. For upper GI procedures, technical success was 100%, and R0 and curative resection rates were 84.8% and 78.8%, respectively. For colorectal procedures, technical success was 98.7%, R0 and curative resection rates were 88.5% and 84.6%, respectively. Major AEs were reported in 12 cases (10.8%). CONCLUSION The introduction of ESD in a Tertiary Center is feasible, effective, and safe, and should be taken into consideration for the treatment of superficial GI lesions requiring 'en bloc' resection.

Surg Endosc 2024; 38:3615-3624. [PMID: 38769184 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-024-10882-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have reported the therapeutic use of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) using an ultrathin endoscope for targeting pharyngeal and distal side lesions in the stenosis or as a less invasive treatment via the nasal route. However, the effectiveness and safety of these treatments remain undetermined. Therefore, this study aimed to review treatment outcomes and discuss the advantages and precautions of the treatments based on our experience. METHODS This study included 13 patients with 14 lesions who underwent 14 sessions of upper gastrointestinal ESD using an ultrathin endoscope between December 2021 and August 2023. The outcome measures included lesion background, en bloc resection rate, en bloc complete resection rates, and incidence of adverse events (including post-operative bleeding, intraoperative perforation, and delayed perforation). RESULTS The lesions in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum were eight, three, and three, respectively, and the median length (range) of each located lesion was 16.5 (6-26), 17 (9-36), and 10 (4-16) mm, respectively. En bloc resection and en bloc complete resection rates were 100 and 92.9%, respectively. The only adverse event was an intraoperative perforation observed during duodenal ESD, resulting from the assistant's inadvertent expansion of the SOUTEN at the final dissection stage. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that ESD with an ultrathin endoscope effectively reaches lesions in difficult locations and enables treatment within a small working space. Therefore, ESD using an ultrathin endoscope is a treatment option for lesions located distally to gastrointestinal stenosis, highly fibrotic lesions, and duodenal tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Perforation is one of the most important complications of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC). Several studies have examined risk factors for intraoperative and delayed perforations, but most were retrospective analyses with small numbers of patients. METHODS This study represents a secondary analysis of a Japanese multicenter prospective cohort study. We investigated the factors associated with each type of perforation using 9015 patients with 9975 EGCs undergoing ESD between July 2010 and June 2012. RESULTS Intraoperative perforation occurred in 198 patients (2.2%) with 203 lesions (2.0%), necessitating emergency surgery for four lesions (0.04% [2.0%, 4/203]). Delayed perforation occurred in another 37 patients (0.4%) with 42 lesions (0.4%), requiring emergency surgery for 12 lesions (0.12% [28.6%, 12/42]). Factors showing significant independent correlations with intraoperative perforation were upper or middle third of the stomach; remnant stomach or gastric tube; procedure time ≥100 min; tumor size >35 mm; body mass index (BMI) < 18.5 kg/m2; and ≥72 years. Factors showing significant independent correlations with delayed perforation were procedure time ≥60 min; BMI < 18.5 kg/m2; ≥75 years; ulceration; and tumor size >20 mm. Intraoperative perforation occurred most frequently at the greater curvature in the upper third of the stomach (7.9%), whereas delayed perforation occurred most frequently at the greater curvature in the middle third (1.2%). CONCLUSION This multicenter prospective cohort study clarified the risk and risk factors of intraoperative and delayed perforation related to ESD for EGCs, providing information to help endoscopists reduce perforation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proper traction allows safer and easier endoscopic submucosal dissection; however, single-point traction may not be sufficient. In this study we assessed the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of our newly developed multipoint traction device. METHODS During an ex vivo study using a Konjac training model, two experts and two trainees resected 80 mock lesions of 20-mm diameter by performing endoscopic submucosal dissection with and without multipoint traction. The primary outcome was the success rate of the procedure involving traction. The secondary outcomes were the submucosal dissection time, dissection speed, and perforation during endoscopic submucosal dissection. During the in vivo study, to clarify the initial clinical outcomes, we used data from the electronic medical record of patients at our institution who underwent gastric and colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection, which was performed by experts with our newly developed multipoint traction device, from March to December 2022. RESULTS The ex vivo study indicated that all traction procedures were successful. Higher resection speeds were observed with endoscopic submucosal dissection with traction than without traction (P < 0.001). Perforations were not observed. During the first in vivo clinical study, traction was feasible during 20 gastric and colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection procedures. No adverse events occurred. CONCLUSIONS Our multitraction device can increase the submucosal dissection speed and simplify endoscopic submucosal dissection techniques, thus safely reducing technical challenges. The application of this device for endoscopic submucosal dissection could lead to safer and more efficient procedures.

Abstract
Background Malignancies in the upper gastrointestinal tract are amenable to endoscopic resection at an early stage. Achieving a curative resection is the most stringent quality criterion, but post-resection risk assessment and aftercare are also part of a comprehensive quality program. Summary Various factors influence the achievement of curative resection. These include endoscopic assessment prior to resection using chromoendoscopy and HD technology. If resectability is possible, it is particularly important to delineate the lateral resection margins as precisely as possible before resection. Furthermore, the correct choice of resection technique depending on the lesion must be taken into account. Endoscopic submucosal dissection is the standard for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and gastric carcinoma. In Western countries, it is becoming increasingly popular to treat Barrett's neoplasia over 2 cm in size and/or with suspected submucosal infiltration with en bloc resection instead of piece meal resection. After resection, risk assessment based on the histopathological resection determines the patient's individual risk of lymph node metastases, particularly in the case of high-risk lesions. This is categorized according to the current literature. Key Messages This review presents clinical algorithms for endoscopic resection of esophageal SCC, Barrett's neoplasia, and gastric neoplasia. The algorithms include the pre-resection assessment of the lesion and the resection margins, the adequate resection technique for the respective lesion, as well as the post-resection risk assessment with an evidence-based recommendation for follow-up therapy and surveillance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We investigated the factors associated with synchronous multiple early gastric cancers and determined their localization. METHODS We analyzed 8,191 patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancers at 33 hospitals in Japan from November 2013 to October 2016. Background factors were compared between single-lesion (n = 7,221) and synchronous multi-lesion cases (n = 970) using univariate and multivariate analyses. We extracted cases with two synchronous lesions (n = 832) and evaluated their localization. RESULTS Significant independent risk factors for synchronous multiple early gastric cancer were older age (≥75 years old) (odds ratio [OR] = 1.257), male sex (OR = 1.385), severe mucosal atrophy (OR = 1.400), tumor localization in the middle (OR = 1.362) or lower region (OR = 1.404), and submucosal invasion (OR = 1.528 [SM1], 1.488 [SM2]). Depressed macroscopic type (OR = 0.679) and pure undifferentiated histology OR = 0.334) were more common in single early gastric cancers. When one lesion was in the upper region, the other was more frequently located in the lesser curvature of the middle region. When one lesion was in the middle region, the other was more frequently located in the middle region or the lesser curvature of the lower region. When one lesion was in the lower region, the other was more frequently located in the lesser curvature of the middle region or the lower region. CONCLUSION Factors associated with synchronous multiple early gastric cancer included older age, male sex, severe mucosal atrophy, tumor localization in the middle or lower region, and tumor submucosal invasion. Our findings provide useful information regarding specific areas that should be examined carefully when one lesion is detected.

Diagnostic performance of deep-learning-based virtual chromoendoscopy in gastric neoplasms. Gastric Cancer 2024; 27:539-547.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Cycle-consistent generative adversarial network (CycleGAN) is a deep neural network model that performs image-to-image translations. We generated virtual indigo carmine (IC) chromoendoscopy images of gastric neoplasms using CycleGAN and compared their diagnostic performance with that of white light endoscopy (WLE). METHODS WLE and IC images of 176 patients with gastric neoplasms who underwent endoscopic resection were obtained. We used 1,633 images (911 WLE and 722 IC) of 146 cases in the training dataset to develop virtual IC images using CycleGAN. The remaining 30 WLE images were translated into 30 virtual IC images using the trained CycleGAN and used for validation. The lesion borders were evaluated by 118 endoscopists from 22 institutions using the 60 paired virtual IC and WLE images. The lesion area concordance rate and successful whole-lesion diagnosis were compared. RESULTS The lesion area concordance rate based on the pathological diagnosis in virtual IC was lower than in WLE (44.1% vs. 48.5%, p < 0.01). The successful whole-lesion diagnosis was higher in the virtual IC than in WLE images; however, the difference was insignificant (28.2% vs. 26.4%, p = 0.11). Conversely, subgroup analyses revealed a significantly higher diagnosis in virtual IC than in WLE for depressed morphology (41.9% vs. 36.9%, p = 0.02), differentiated histology (27.6% vs. 24.8%, p = 0.02), smaller lesion size (42.3% vs. 38.3%, p = 0.01), and assessed by expert endoscopists (27.3% vs. 23.6%, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The diagnostic ability of virtual IC was higher for some lesions, but not completely superior to that of WLE. Adjustments are required to improve the imaging system's performance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an effective treatment method for early gastric cancers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk factors of recurrence for patients with early gastric cancer after ESD and construct a nomogram for predicting recurrence. METHODS A retrospective observational study was conducted on patients with early gastric cancer who underwent ESD at Beijing Friendship Hospital between 2013 and 2018. The risk factors of gastric cancer recurrence after ESD were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression. RESULTS A total of 238 patients with a median follow-up period of 70.5-month were enrolled in the study. Risk factors for recurrence included diabetes (HR = 3.68), alcohol consumption history (HR = 5.73), complications (HR = 5.22), lymphatic invasion (HR = 13.09) and multiple lesions (HR = 4.34). The analysis of the receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, and model consistency index demonstrates that the graphical representation exhibits a good predictive capability. CONCLUSIONS Based on identified risk factors, this study developed the first nomogram with high accuracy to predict the recurrence of early gastric cancer after ESD. This model offers valuable guidance to clinicians for identifying high-risk patient groups and planning more intensive follow-up strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the digestive system in China. Few comprehensive practice guidelines for early gastric cancer in China are currently available. Therefore, we created the Chinese national clinical practice guideline for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of early gastric cancer. METHODS This clinical practice guideline (CPG) was developed in accordance with the World Health Organization's recommended process and with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) in assessing evidence quality. We used the Evidence to Decision framework to formulate clinical recommendations to minimize bias and increase transparency in the CPG development process. We used the Reporting Items for practice Guidelines in HealThcare (RIGHT) statement and the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) as reporting and conduct guidelines to ensure completeness and transparency of the CPG. RESULTS This CPG contains 40 recommendations regarding the prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of early gastric cancer based on available clinical studies and guidelines. We provide recommendations for the timing of Helicobacter pylori eradication, screening populations for early gastric cancer, indications for endoscopic resection and surgical gastrectomy, follow-up interval after treatment, and other recommendations. CONCLUSIONS This CPG can lead to optimum care for patients and populations by providing up-to-date medical information. We intend this CPG for widespread adoption to increase the standard of prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of early gastric cancer; thereby, contributing to improving national health care and patient quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic mucosal dissection has become the standard treatment for early gastric cancer. However, post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcer occurs in 4.4% of patients. This study hypothesized whether applying PuraStat, a novel hemostatic peptide solution, prevents post-ESD bleeding.
AIM To investigate the preventive potential of PuraStat, a hemostatic formulation, against bleeding in post-ESD gastric ulcers.
METHODS Between May 2022 and March 2023, 101 patients (Group P) underwent ESD for gastric diseases at our hospital and received PuraStat (2 mL) for post-ESD ulcers. We retrospectively compared this group with a control group (Group C) comprising 297 patients who underwent ESD for gastric diseases at our hospital between April 2017 and March 2021. P values < 0.05 on two-sided tests indicated significance.
RESULTS Post-ESD bleeding occurred in 6 (5.9%) (95%CI: 2.8–12.4) and 20 (6.7%) (95%CI: 4.4–10.2) patients in Groups P and C, respectively, with no significant between-group difference. The relative risk was 1.01 (95%CI: 0.95–1.07). The lesser curvature or anterior wall was the bleeding site in all 6 patients who experienced postoperative bleeding in Group P. In multivariate analysis, the odds ratios for resection diameter ≥ 50 mm and oral anticoagulant use were 6.63 (95%CI: 2.52–14.47; P = 0.0001) and 4.04 (1.26–0.69; P = 0.0164), respectively. The adjusted odds ratio of post-ESD bleeding and PuraStat was 1.28 (95%CI: 0.28–2.15).
CONCLUSION PuraStat application is not associated with post-ESD bleeding. However, the study suggests that gravitational forces may affect the effectiveness of applied PuraStat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS An increasing number of patients are undergoing gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with active prescriptions of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). Only a few reports have described the effects of DOAC intake on postoperative bleeding. We aimed to investigate the bleeding risk associated with DOACs after gastric ESD. METHODS Clinical studies published up to April 2022 showing bleeding rates after gastric ESD in patients taking DOACs were identified using electronic searches. The primary outcome was the rate of bleeding after gastric ESD in patients receiving DOACs compared to those not receiving antithrombotic therapy. In this meta-analysis, odds ratios (ORs) were calculated and pooled using a random effects model. The secondary outcome was the difference in the bleeding rate between patients treated with DOACs and those treated with warfarin and antiplatelet drugs. RESULTS Seven studies were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled analysis showed that DOACs had a higher bleeding rate than non-thrombotic therapy (17.0% vs. 3.4%; OR 5.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.33-7.54; I2 = 0%). The bleeding risk associated with DOAC administration was similar to that associated with warfarin (17.0% vs. 20.0%; OR 0.83; 95% CI 0.59-1.18; I2 = 0%), whereas it was higher than that associated with antiplatelet administration (16.9% vs. 11.0%; OR 1.63; 95% CI 1.14-2.34; I2 = 8%). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis reveals that the bleeding risk of DOACs is higher than that of non-antithrombotics and antiplatelets, whereas it is comparable to that of warfarin. Gastric ESD in patients on anticoagulants requires careful postoperative management.

Akashi T, Yamaguchi N, Shiota J, Tabuchi M, Kitayama M, Hashiguchi K, Matsushima K, Akazawa Y, Nakao K. Characteristics and Risk Factors of Delayed Perforation in Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Early Gastric Cancer. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1317. [PMID: 38592167 PMCID: PMC10931556 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13051317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Delayed perforation after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer is a relatively uncommon and serious complication that sometimes requires emergency surgery. This study aimed to determine the clinicopathological features, risk factors, and appropriate management strategies for delayed perforation. (2) Methods: This study included 735 patients with 791 lesions who underwent ESD for early gastric cancer at a single institution between July 2009 and June 2019. We retrospectively compared the clinical features of patients with and without delayed perforations. (3) Results: The incidence of delayed perforations was 0.91%. The identified risk factors included a postoperative stomach condition and histopathological ulceration. A comparison between delayed and intraoperative perforations revealed a postoperative stomach condition as a characteristic risk factor for delayed perforation. Patients with delayed perforation who avoided emergency surgery tended to exhibit an earlier onset of symptoms such as abdominal pain and fever. No peritoneal seeding following delayed perforation was observed for any patient. (4) Conclusions: A postoperative stomach condition and histopathological ulceration were risk factors for delayed perforation. Delayed perforation is a significant complication that requires careful monitoring after gastric ESD for early gastric cancer, particularly in patients with postoperative gastric conditions.

Abstract
Endoscopic treatment, particularly endoscopic submucosal dissection, has become the primary treatment for early gastric cancer. A comprehensive optical assessment, including white light endoscopy, image-enhanced endoscopy, and magnification, are the cornerstones for clinical staging and determining the resectability of lesions. This paper discusses factors that influence the indication for endoscopic resection and the likelihood of achieving a curative resection. Our review stresses the critical need for interpreting the histopathological report in accordance with clinical guidelines and the imperative of tailoring decisions based on the patients' and lesions' characteristics and preferences. Moreover, we offer guidance on managing complex scenarios, such as those involving non-curative resection. Finally, we identify future research avenues, including the role of artificial intelligence in estimating the depth of invasion and the urgent need to refine predictive scores for lymph node metastasis and metachronous lesions.

Abstract
Current evidence shows an inter-country inconsistency in the effect of lesion size on the technical difficulty of gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). We aimed to evaluate the specific correlation and quantify the ensuing risks. This retrospective study consisted of 405 ESD cases with gastric single lesion from April 2015 to April 2023. The correlation and risk prediction of lesion size with technical difficulty was explored to provide further clinical evidence. An additive generalized model and recursive algorithm were used to describe the non-linear association, and a linear two-piece regression was constructed to analyze the inflection point. Subgroup analysis and interaction were used to explore intergroup characteristics. Overall, difficult cases had larger lesion sizes, and the more significant the increase, the higher the risk of technical difficulty. In the full model, after adjusting for all covariates, each 1 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, 7 mm, and one standard increase in lesion size increased the risk of technical difficulty by 8%, 26%, 42%, 72%, and 125%, respectively. There is a nonlinear positive correlation between lesion size and risk of technical difficulty, and the premeditated inflection point was 40 (mm) via two-piecewise linear regression and recursive algorithm. Subgroup analysis showed a stronger correlation between lesion size and difficult ESD in the upper site and submucosal fibrosis groups. Available evidence suggests that lesion size as a risk signal nonlinearly increases the technical difficulty of gastric ESD procedure, especially in cases of upper site and submucosal fibrosis, which deserves further investigation.

Abstract
Background/Aims Delayed perforation is a rare but serious adverse event of gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical features and appropriate management strategy of patients with delayed perforation. Methods Among 11,531 patients who underwent gastric ESD, the clinical features and outcomes of patients who experienced delayed perforation were retrospectively reviewed and compared with those of the control group. Results Delayed perforation occurred in 15 of 11,531 patients (0.13%). The patients with delayed perforation were significantly older than those without delayed perforation (p=0.027). The median time to diagnosis of delayed perforation was 28.8 hours (range, 14 to 71 hours). All 15 patients with delayed perforation complained of severe abdominal pain after gastric ESD and underwent subsequent chest X-rays (CXRs) for evaluation. In subsequent CXR, free air was found in 12 patients (80%). For three (20%) patients without free air in CXR, delayed perforation was finally diagnosed by computed tomography. Leukocytosis was significantly less frequent in the patients without free air in CXR (p=0.022). A perforation hole smaller than 1 cm in size was more frequently observed in the six patients who underwent successful non-surgical treatments than in the nine patients who underwent surgery (p<0.001). There was no mortality related to delayed perforation. Conclusions One-fifth of the patients with delayed perforation did not show free air in CXR and exhibited less leukocytosis than those with free air. Non-surgical treatments including endoscopic closure might be considered as an initial treatment modality for delayed perforation smaller than 1 cm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is the standard treatment for early gastric neoplasms (EGN). Controlling intraoperative bleeding is crucial for ensuring safe and reliable procedures. ESD using the spray coagulation mode (SCM-ESD) has been developed to control bleeding more effectively than ESD using the conventional forced coagulation mode (FCM-ESD). This study aims to compare the hemostatic efficacies of SCM-ESD and FCM-ESD. METHODS This multicenter, prospective, parallel, randomized, open-label superiority trial will be conducted in five Japanese institutions. Patients with a preoperative diagnosis of intramucosal EGC will be randomized to undergo either SCM-ESD or FCM-ESD. The primary outcome measure is the completion of ESD with an electrosurgical knife alone, without the use of hemostatic forceps. Secondary outcomes include the number and duration of hemostasis using hemostatic forceps, procedure time, curability, and safety. A total of 130 patients will be enrolled in this study. DISCUSSION This trial will provide evidence on the hemostatic efficacy of SCM-ESD compared with FCM-ESD in patients with intramucosal EGN, potentially improving the safety and reliability of ESD procedures. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial has been registered at the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registration (UMIN-CTR) as UMIN000040518. The reception number is R000054009.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radical surgery after non-curative endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) may be excessive, since only 5-10% of patients have lymph node metastasis (LNM). This study investigated the suitability of the eCura system for determining the need for radical surgery after non-curative ESD. METHODS We retrospectively investigated 343 patients who underwent non-curative ESD for EGC from 2006 to 2021 at a tertiary hospital in Korea. These patients were divided into surgery (n = 191) and observation (n = 152) groups based on whether they underwent additional surgery post-ESD. Each group was further classified into low-risk (eCura score 0-1), intermediate-risk (eCura score 2-4) and high-risk (eCura score 5-7). All patients were regularly followed-up at least annually after the initial treatment. The cumulative overall and recurrence-free survival rates were calculated for each category and compared between the surgery and observation groups. RESULTS No significant differences in overall survival were found between the surgery and observation groups in low-risk (p = 0.168) and intermediate-risk patients (p = 0.306); however, high-risk patients had better 5-year overall survival rate in the surgery group than in the follow-up group (95.2% vs. 71.4%, p < 0.001). The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate was higher in the surgery group than in the observation group for low-risk (100% vs. 84.3%; p = 0.034), intermediate-risk (96.1% vs. 88.4%; p = 0.081) and high-risk patients (100% vs. 83.3%; p = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS Follow-up without additional surgery after non-curative ESD can be a reasonable option for low-risk and even intermediate-risk patients according to the eCura system. However, surgery is warranted for eCura high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surveillance after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is recommended for all patients owing to the persistent risk of metachronous gastric lesions (MGLs). We developed and validated a prediction score to estimate MGL risk after ESD for early neoplastic gastric lesions, to define an individualized and cost-saving approach. METHODS Clinical predictors and a risk score were derived from meta-analysis data. A retrospective, single-center, cohort study including patients with ≥ 3 years of standardized surveillance after ESD was conducted for score validation. Predictive accuracy of the score by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was assessed and cumulative probabilities of MGL were estimated. RESULTS The risk score (0-9 points) included six clinical predictors (scored 0-3): positive family history of gastric cancer, older age, male sex, corpus intestinal metaplasia, synchronous gastric lesions, and persistent Helicobacter pylori infection (FAMISH). The study population included 263 patients. The MGL rate was 16 %. The score diagnostic accuracy for predicting MGL at 3 years' follow-up, measured by the AUC, was 0.704 (95 %CI 0.603-0.806). At 3 years and a cutoff < 2, the score achieved maximal sensitivity and negative predictive value; 15 % of patients could be assigned to a low-risk group, in which the progression to MGL was significantly lower than for the high-risk group (P = 0.04). CONCLUSION The FAMISH score might be a useful tool to accurately identify patients with low-to-intermediate risk for MGL at 3 years of follow-up who could have surveillance intervals extended to reduce the burden of care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to determine long-term outcomes of gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in Western settings based on the latest Japanese indication criteria, and to examine predictors of outcomes and complications. METHODS Data were collected from consecutive patients undergoing gastric ESD at four participating centers from 2009 to 2021. Retrospective analysis using logistic regression and survival analysis was performed. RESULTS 415 patients were included (mean age 71.7 years; 56.4 % male). Absolute indication criteria (2018 guideline) were met in 75.3 % of patients. Median follow-up was 52 months. Post-resection histology was adenocarcinoma, high grade dysplasia, and low grade dysplasia in 49.9 %, 22.7 %, and 17.1 %, respectively. Perforation, early and delayed bleeding occurred in 2.4 %, 4.3 %, and 3.4 %, respectively. Rates of en bloc and R0 resection, and recurrence on first endoscopic follow-up were 94.7 %, 83.4 %, and 2.7 %, respectively. Relative indication (2018 guideline) for ESD was associated with R1 outcome (P = 0.02). Distal location (P = 0.002) and increased procedure time (P = 0.04) were associated with bleeding, and scarring (P = 0.009) and increased procedure duration (P = 0.003) were associated with perforation. Recurrence-free survival at 2 and 5 years was 94 % and 83 %, respectively. CONCLUSION This is the largest Western multicenter cohort and suggests that gastric ESD is safe and effective in the Western setting. A quarter of patients fell outside the new absolute indications for ESD, suggesting that Western practice involves more advanced lesions. We identified the predictors of complications, which should help to inform future Western practice and research.

Clinical and endoscopic features of metachronous gastric cancer with possible lymph node metastasis after endoscopic submucosal dissection and Helicobacter pylori eradication. Gastric Cancer 2023; 26:743-754. [PMID: 37160633 DOI: 10.1007/s10120-023-01394-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/29/2023] [Indexed: 05/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have reported the metachronous gastric cancers (MGCs) with possible lymph node metastasis (LNM) after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication in which a curative ESD had not been achieved. There have been no published reports of evaluations of the features of patients with MGC with possible LNM after ESD and H. pylori eradication. METHODS We identified 264 patients with 369 MGCs after H. pylori eradication among the 4354 patients with 5059 early gastric cancers (EGCs) who underwent ESD between 1999 and 2017 and divided them into two groups: patients with MGCs with possible LNM (Group I) and patients with MGCs undergone curative ESD (Group II). We retrospectively compared the features of patients with MGCs and patients with EGCs at index ESD in the two groups. RESULT Group I consisted of 20 patients with 21 MGCs, and Group II consisted of 244 patients with 348 MGCs. Group I lesions were significantly more common in the posterior wall than in the lesser curvature (odds ratio [OR] = 3.97; 95% confidence intervals [CI] 1.20-13.10). Development of Group I was significantly more common in patients with a body mass index (BMI) < 19.0 kg/m2 than in patients with a BMI ≥ 19.0 kg/m2 at index ESD (OR = 4.44; 95% CI 1.30-15.20). CONCLUSIONS During surveillance endoscopy after gastric ESD and H. pylori eradication, the posterior wall should be carefully examined to detect MGCs early. Lower BMI may be associated with the development of MGCs with possible LNM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For an adequate educational strategy of ESD in non-Asian settings with prevalence-based indication it is essential to define adequate lesions, suitable for the beginner without on-site expert-supervision. AIMS We analyzed possible predictors for outcome parameters of effectiveness and safety during the initial learning curve. METHODS The first 120 ESDs of four operators (n = 480), performed between 2007 and 2020 in four tertiary hospitals, were enrolled. Uni-/multivariable regression analysis was done with sex, age, pretreated lesion, lesion size, organ, and organ-based localization as possible independent predictors for en bloc resection (EBR), complication, and resection speed. RESULTS Rates of EBR, complication, and resection speed were 84.5%, 14.2%, and 6.20 (± 4.45) cm2/h. Independent predictors for EBR were pretreated lesion (OR 0.27 [0.13-0.57], p < 0.001) and non-colonic ESD (OR 2.29 [1.26-4.17] (rectum)/5.72 [2.36-13.89] (stomach)/7.80 [2.60-23.42] (esophagus), p < 0.001), for complication pretreated lesion (OR 3.04 [1.46-6.34], p < 0.001) and lesion size (OR 1.02 [1.004-1.04], p = 0.012) and for resection speed pretreated lesion (RC - 3.10 [- 4.39 to - 1.81], p < 0.001), lesion size (RC 0.13 [0.11-0.16], p < 0.001) and male patient (RC - 1.11 [- 1.85 to - 0.37], p < 0.001). We found no significant difference in the incidence of technically unsuccessful resections in esophageal (1/84), gastric (3/113), rectal (7/181), and colonic (3/101) ESDs (p = 0.76). Technical failure was mainly caused by complication and fibrosis/pretreatment. CONCLUSION During the initial learning curve of an unsupervised ESD program with prevalence-based indication, pretreated lesions and colonic ESDs should be avoided. In contrast, lesion size and organ-based localizations have less predictive value for the outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Hybrid endoscopic submucosal dissection (H-ESD), which incorporates endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with endoscopic mucosal resection, has been developed to make ESD technically easier. This study aimed to determine if H-ESD is superior to conventional ESD (C-ESD) for small early gastric neoplasms (EGNs). METHODS We conducted a multi-center, prospective, open-label, randomized controlled trial to compare the treatment outcomes of H-ESD and C-ESD (Hybrid-G Trial). Patients with differentiated type intramucosal EGN ≤20 mm in diameter and without ulceration were randomly assigned (1:1) to groups that underwent H-ESD or C-ESD. A single multi-functional snare, SOUTEN (ST1850-20, Kaneka, Medix, Tokyo, Japan), was used for H-ESD. The primary outcome was procedure time. Secondary outcomes included mucosal incision time, time and speed of submucosal dissection, curability, and endoscopic procedural adverse events. RESULTS A total of 39 and 40 patients underwent H-ESD and C-ESD, respectively. The procedure time of H-ESD was significantly shorter than that of C-ESD (33.16 min vs 62.46 min; H-ESD/C-ESD ratio: 0.53; 95% confidence interval, 0.41-0.69; P < .0001). There was no significant difference in mucosal incision time between the 2 groups; the time and speed of submucosal dissection of H-ESD were significantly shorter than those of C-ESD. No difference was observed between the 2 groups in other outcomes. CONCLUSIONS H-ESD has significantly shorter procedure time than C-ESD, with high and comparable curability and safety for both H-ESD and C-ESD. H-ESD can be a good option for the endoscopic treatment of small EGNs. (UMIN Clinical Trials Registry, Numbers: UMIN000041244).

Abstract
Early gastric cancer comprises gastric malignancies that are confined to the mucosa or submucosa, irrespective of lymph node metastasis. Endoscopic resection is currently pivotal for the management of such early lesions, and it is the recommended treatment for tumors presenting a very low risk of lymph node metastasis. In general, these lesions consist of two groups of differentiated mucosal adenocarcinomas: non-ulcerated lesions (regardless of their size) and small ulcerated lesions. Endoscopic submucosal dissection is the technique of choice in most cases. This procedure has high rates of complete histological resection while maintaining gastric anatomy and its functions, resulting in fewer adverse events than surgery and having a lesser impact on patient-reported quality of life. Nonetheless, approximately 20% of resected lesions do not fulfill curative criteria and demand further treatment, highlighting the importance of patient selection. Additionally, the preservation of the stomach results in a moderate risk of metachronous lesions, which underlines the need for surveillance. We review the current evidence regarding the endoscopic treatment of early gastric cancer, including the short-and long-term results and management after resection.

World J Gastroenterol 2023; 29:2916-2931. [PMID: 37274799 PMCID: PMC10237096 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v29.i19.2916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Delayed bleeding is a major and serious adverse event of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early-stage gastrointestinal tumors. The rate of post-ESD bleeding for gastric cancer is higher (around 5%-8%) than that for esophagus, duodenum and colon cancer (around 2%-4%). Although investigations into the risk factors for post-ESD bleeding have identified several procedure-, lesion-, physician- and patient-related factors, use of antithrombotic drugs, especially anticoagulants [direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and warfarin], is thought to be the biggest risk factor for post-ESD bleeding. In fact, the post-ESD bleeding rate in patients receiving DOACs is 8.7%-20.8%, which is higher than that in patients not receiving anticoagulants. However, because clinical guidelines for management of ESD in patients receiving DOACs differ among countries, it is necessary for endoscopists to identify ways to prevent post-ESD delayed bleeding in clinical practice. Given that the pharmacokinetics (e.g., plasma DOAC level at both trough and Tmax) and pharmacodynamics (e.g., anti-factor Xa activity) of DOACs are related to risk of major bleeding, plasma DOAC level and anti-FXa activity may be useful parameters for monitoring the anti-coagulate effect and identifying DOAC patients at higher risk of post-ESD bleeding.

Abstract
Effective wound sealing is key to prevent postoperative complications arising from gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Accurate delivery of the adhesive to wet and dynamic tissues and rapid action of the adhesive onsite should be considered for endoscopic operation. A hybrid dry powder (HDP) strategy, characterized by decoupling of powder gelation and tissue adhesion, for rapid sealing of wet tissues is presented. HDPs carrying oppositely charged polyelectrolytes become a hydrogel layer over the target tissue by absorbing the surrounding water and forming strong electrostatic interactions between heterogeneous components. Strong adhesion is realized through hydrogen bonding between the adhesive component, poly(acrylic acid), and the tissue. Wet tissue adhesion can be achieved in a few seconds (adhesion strength of ∼30 kPa to porcine skin). Notably, the HDP-assembled hydrogel can maintain a low swelling rate and resist degradation in acidic aqueous environments (pH 1). Furthermore, HDPs can be delivered to target tissues by spraying via an endoscope. The results of in vivo experiments indicate that healing of gastric ESD perforations by sealing with the powder-assembled hydrogel is as effective as that by sealing with clips. This strategy is expected to facilitate the development of fast-acting hydrogel-based adhesives for endoscopic operation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Little is known about the prognostic factors for survival after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in elderly patients with early gastric cancer (EGC). The aim of this study is to determine prognostic factors and a prediction model of 3-year survival after ESD for EGC in patients aged ≥ 85 years. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the clinical outcomes of 740 patients with EGC aged ≥ 85 years, who were treated by ESD at 30 institutions in Japan. Overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) were calculated with the Kaplan-Meier method. Prediction models for 3-year OS after ESD were estimated using the Cox proportional hazards model based on Uno's C-statistics. RESULTS During the follow-up period, 309 patients died of any cause and 10 patients died of gastric cancer. OS and DSS after 3 years were 82.7% and 99.2%, respectively. No significant differences in OS were found among curability categories. The Cox proportional hazards model revealed the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and the Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) to be predictors of 3-year survival. We established a final model (EGC-2 model) expressed by GNRI - (2.2×CCI) with a cutoff value of 96. The overall survival rate was significantly lower in the model value < 96 group than in the model value ≥ 96 group (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The prediction model using GNRI and CCI will be useful to support decision-making for the treatment of EGC in elderly patients aged ≥ 85 years.

Perigastric abscess caused by delayed perforation after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection: successful conservative treatment without perforation closure: a case report. J Med Case Rep 2023; 17:92. [PMID: 36915159 PMCID: PMC10012522 DOI: 10.1186/s13256-023-03785-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Perigastric abscess caused by delayed perforation after endoscopic submucosal dissection is a very rare complication. In principle, delayed perforation after endoscopic submucosal dissection is treated surgically. Herein, we report a case of perigastric abscess caused by delayed perforation after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection that was treated conservatively, without perforation closure, and in which the patient was discharged from hospital in a short period. CASE PRESENTATION A-74-year-old Asian man was diagnosed with having early gastric cancer on follow-up endoscopy and was admitted to our hospital for endoscopic resection. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed without intraoperative complications. On postoperative day 2, the patient complained of a slight abdominal pain localized to the epigastric region and a small amount of melena. A computed tomography scan revealed the presence of free air in the peritoneal cavity, and a little fluid collection abutting the dorsal area of the stomach. An endoscopy examination showed a deep ulcer with the accumulation of pus, suggesting a perforation in the post-endoscopic submucosal dissection ulcer. We diagnosed a perigastric abscess, caused by delayed perforation after endoscopic submucosal dissection, and opted for conservative treatment, leaving the perforation site open to allow spontaneous drainage from the abscess into the stomach. A follow-up computed tomography scan revealed an encapsuled and localized perigastric abscess on postoperative day 5, and the disappearance of the free air and the regression of the perigastric abscess on postoperative day 7. A follow-up endoscopy examination on postoperative day 7 showed the closure of the perforation. Finally, surgery was avoided, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 14, after a relatively short hospital stay. CONCLUSION Regarding the treatment of perigastric abscess, caused by delayed perforation after endoscopic submucosal dissection, leaving the perforation site open to allow spontaneous drainage may shorten the conservative treatment period.

Abstract
Endoscopic submucosal dissection is an established method for complete resection of large and early gastrointestinal tumors. However, methods to reduce bleeding, perforation, and other adverse events after endoscopic resection (ER) have not yet been defined. Mucosal defect closure is often performed endoscopically with a clip. Recently, reopenable clips and large-teeth clips have also been developed. The over-the-scope clip enables complete defect closure by withdrawing the endoscope once and attaching the clip. Other methods involve attaching the clip-line or a ring with an anchor to appose the edges of the mucosal defect, followed by the use of an additional clip for defect closure. Since clips are limited by their grasping force and size, other methods, such as endoloop closure, endoscopic ligation with O-ring closure, and the reopenable clip over-the-line method, have been developed. In recent years, techniques often utilized for full-thickness ER of submucosal tumors have been widely used in full-thickness defect closure. Specialized devices and techniques for defect closure have also been developed, including the curved needle and line, stitches, and an endoscopic tack and suture device. These clips and suture devices are applied for defect closure in emergency endoscopy, accidental perforations, and acute and chronic fistulas. Although endoscopic defect closure with clips has a high success rate, endoscopists need to simplify and promote endoscopic closure techniques to prevent adverse events after ER.

Long-term Survival After Endoscopic Resection For Gastric Cancer: Real-world Evidence From a Multicenter Prospective Cohort. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2023; 21:307-318.e2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS We aimed to clarify the long-term outcomes of endoscopic resection (ER) for early gastric cancers (EGCs) based on pathological curability in a multicenter prospective cohort study. METHODS We analyzed the long-term outcomes of 9054 patients with 10,021 EGCs undergoing ER between July 2010 and June 2012. Primary endpoint was the 5-year overall survival (OS). The hazard ratio for all-cause mortality was calculated using the Cox proportional hazards model. We also compared the 5-year OS with the expected one calculated for the surgically resected patients with EGC. If the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the 5-year OS exceeded the expected 5-year OS minus a margin of 5% (threshold 5-year OS), ER was considered to be effective. Pathological curability was categorized into en bloc resection, negative margins, and negative lymphovascular invasion: differentiated-type, pT1a, ulcer negative, ≤2 cm (Category A1); differentiated-type, pT1a, ulcer negative, >2 cm or ulcer positive, ≤3 cm (Category A2); undifferentiated-type, pT1a, ulcer negative, ≤2 cm (Category A3); differentiated-type, pT1b (SM1), ≤3 cm (Category B); or noncurative resections (Category C). RESULTS Overall, the 5-year OS was 89.0% (95% CI, 88.3%-89.6%). In a multivariate analysis, no significant differences were observed when the hazard ratio of Categories A2, A3, and B were compared with that of A1. In all the pathological curability categories, the lower limit of the 95% CI for the 5-year OS exceeded the threshold 5-year OS. CONCLUSION ER can be recommended as a standard treatment for patients with EGCs fulfilling Category A2, A3, and B, as well as A1 (UMIN Clinical Trial Registry, UMIN000005871).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The guidelines recommend additional gastrectomy after noncurative endoscopic resection for early gastric cancers (EGCs). However, no additional treatment might be acceptable in some patients aged ≥ 85 years. We aimed to identify this patient group using the data in a highly aged area. METHODS We enrolled patients aged ≥ 85 years after noncurative endoscopic resection for EGCs at 30 institutions of the Tohoku district in Japan between 2002 and 2017. Treatment selection and prognosis after noncurative endoscopic resection were investigated. Fourteen candidates were evaluated using the Cox model to identify risk factors for poor overall survival (OS) in patients with no additional treatment. RESULTS Of 1065 patients aged ≥ 85 years, 143 underwent noncurative endoscopic resection. Despite the guidelines' recommendation, 88.8% of them underwent no additional treatment. The 5-year OS rates in those with additional gastrectomy and those with no additional treatment were 63.1 and 65.2%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed independent risk factors for poor OS in patients with no additional treatment were the high-risk category in the eCura system (hazard ratio [HR], 2.91), Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) ≥ 3 (HR, 2.78), and male (HR, 2.04). In patients with no additional treatment, nongastric cancer-specific survival was low (69.0% in 5 years), whereas disease-specific survival rates were very high in the low- and intermediate-risk categories of the eCura system (100.0 and 97.1%, respectively, in 5 years). CONCLUSIONS No additional treatment may be acceptable in the low- and intermediate-risk categories of the eCura system in patients aged ≥ 85 years with noncurative endoscopic resection for EGCs.

[PMID: 36639059 DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2022.12.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Data are lacking regarding post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) bleeding in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) who take antiplatelet agents (APAs), particularly in those taking thienopyridine and cilostazol. We aimed to clarify the association between the status of APA medication and post-ESD bleeding risk. METHODS This study is a secondary analysis using data from a recently conducted nationwide multicenter study in Japan. We retrospectively reviewed patients treated with APAs or on no antithrombotic therapy recruited from 33 institutions who underwent ESD for EGC between November 2013 and October 2016. The primary outcome of this study was the relationship between the rate of post-ESD bleeding and the status of each APA medication. RESULTS A total of 9736 patients were included in the analysis. Among 665 aspirin users, the continuation group was significantly associated with post-ESD bleeding (odds ratio [OR], 2.79; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.77-4.37). Among 227 thienopyridine users, the aspirin or cilostazol replacement group was not significantly associated with post-ESD bleeding (OR, 1.85; 95% CI, .72-4.78). Among 158 cilostazol users, there was no significant association with post-ESD bleeding, irrespective of medication status. The rate of post-ESD bleeding was approximately 10% to 20% irrespective of the status of APA administration among dual-antiplatelet therapy users. No patients experienced thromboembolic events in this study. CONCLUSIONS Replacement of thienopyridine with aspirin or cilostazol may be acceptable for minimizing both the risk of post-ESD bleeding and thromboembolism in patients with EGC. In patients on cilostazol monotherapy undergoing ESD, continuation of therapy may be acceptable.

Abstract
Endoscopic resection (ER) is widely performed for early gastric cancer (EGC) with a negligible risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in Eastern Asian countries. In particular, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) leads to a high en bloc resection rate, enabling accurate pathological evaluation. As undifferentiated EGC (UD-EGC) is known to result in a higher incidence of LNM and infiltrative growth than differentiated EGC (D-EGC), the indications for ER are limited compared with those for D-EGC. Previously, clinical staging as intramucosal UD-EGC ≤2 cm, without ulceration, was presented as 'weakly recommended' or 'expanded indications' for ER in the guidelines of the United States, Europe, Korea, and Japan. Based on promising long-term outcomes from a prospective multicenter study by the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) 1009/1010, the status of this indication has expanded and is now considered 'absolute indications' in the latest Japanese guidelines published in 2021. In this study, which comprised 275 patients with UD-EGC (cT1a, ≤2 cm, without ulceration) treated with ESD, the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 99.3% (95% confidence interval, 97.1%-99.8%), which was higher than the threshold 5-year OS (89.9%). Currently, the levels of evidence grades and recommendations for ER of UD-EGC differ among Japan, Korea, and Western countries. Therefore, a further discussion is warranted to generalize the indications for ER of UD-EGC in countries besides Japan.

Abstract
Background Endoscopy is the optimal method of diagnosing and treating early gastric cancer (EGC), and it is therefore important to keep up with the rapid development of endoscopic applications in EGC. This study utilized bibliometric analysis to describe the development, current research progress, hotspots, and emerging trends in this field. Methods We retrieved publications about endoscopic applications in EGC from 2012 to 2022 from Web of Science™ (Clarivate™, Philadelphia, PA, USA) Core Collection (WoSCC). We mainly used CiteSpace (version 6.1.R3) and VOSviewer (version 1.6.18) to perform the collaboration network analysis, co-cited analysis, co-occurrence analysis, cluster analysis, and burst detection. Results A total of 1,333 publications were included. Overall, both the number of publications and the average number of citations per document per year increased annually. Among the 52 countries/regions that were included, Japan contributed the most in terms of publications, citations, and H-index, followed by the Republic of Korea and China. The National Cancer Center, based in both Japan and the Republic of Korea, ranked first among institutions in terms of number of publications, citation impact, and the average number of citations. Yong Chan Lee was the most productive author, and Ichiro Oda had the highest citation impact. In terms of cited authors, Gotoda Takuji had both the highest citation impact and the highest centrality. Among journals, Surgical Endoscopy and Other Interventional Techniques had the most publications, and Gastric Cancer had the highest citation impact and H-index. Among all publications and cited references, a paper by Smyth E C et al., followed by one by Gotoda T et al., had the highest citation impact. Using keywords co-occurrence and cluster analysis, 1,652 author keywords were categorized into 26 clusters, and we then divided the clusters into six groups. The largest and newest clusters were endoscopic submucosal dissection and artificial intelligence (AI), respectively. Conclusions Over the last decade, research into endoscopic applications in EGC has gradually increased. Japan and the Republic of Korea have contributed the most, but research in this field in China, from an initially low base, is developing at a striking speed. However, a lack of collaboration among countries, institutions, and authors, is common, and this should be addressed in future. The main focus of research in this field (i.e., the largest cluster) is endoscopic submucosal dissection, and the topic at the frontier (i.e., the newest cluster) is AI. Future research should focus on the application of AI in endoscopy, and its implications for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of EGC.

Abstract
Gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is established for management of early gastric cancer (EGC). Diagnosis of EGC relies on adequate endoscopic assessment involving lesion size, histopathology, presence of ulceration, and depth of invasion. Absolute indications for endoscopic resection of EGC are if patients are presumed to have a less than 1% risk of lymph node metasta endoscopic submucosal dissectionsis, and long-term outcomes are similar to those with surgical gastrectomy. Duodenal ESD is more technically difficult and requires expertise in ESD in other locations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Effective traction is an important prerequisite for successful endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). The combined orthodontic rubber band (ORB) and clip method was effective in colorectal cancer ESD. To date, the method was not reported in gastric ESD. This study aimed to investigate its efficacy and safety for gastric neoplasms ESD. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data of 118 patients with gastric neoplasms treated by ESD from November 2020 to April 2022, 43 by ORB-ESD and 75 by the conventional ESD. The primary outcome measure was the ESD procedure time. Clinical data on efficacy and safety were also collected and analyzed. Propensity score matching (PSM) matched the patients in both groups. RESULTS PSM successfully matched 31 pairs of patients. The ORB-ESD operation time was shorter (median [interquartile range], 35 [30-48] vs. 49 [40-70] min, P < 0.001) and dissection speed was higher (median [interquartile range], 22.6 [14.4-29.3] vs. 13.5 [9.6-17.9] mm2/min, P < 0.001) than in the conventional ESD. The groups were similar in muscular injury rate, frequency and time of use of thermal hemostatic forceps, postoperative adverse events, en bloc resection, and R0 resection rate (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared to the conventional ESD, ORB-ESD significantly reduced the procedure time and increased the dissection speed, proving beneficial to gastric ESD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the indications for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer have been revised, diagnostic ESD has increased. However, despite the technical difficulty of ESD for large lesions, the degree to which curative resection can be achieved has not been clarified. This study investigated the feasibility and safety of ESD for gastric lesions larger than 5 cm. METHODS This retrospective multicenter study included 3474 gastric lesions treated by ESD from April 2012 to December 2021. We compared clinicopathological characteristics and treatment outcomes between lesions ≥ 5 cm and lesions < 5 cm. RESULTS There were 128 lesions in the ≥ 5 cm group and 3282 lesions in the < 5 cm group. In the ≥ 5 cm group, upper location and fibrosis during ESD were more common, with a lower rate of 0-IIc type. Both en bloc resection rate and R0 resection rate were comparable, but there was a difference in curative resection rate (65.6% in the ≥ 5 cm group and 91.5% in the < 5 cm group). The frequency of adverse events (post-ESD bleeding, perforation, or stenosis) was almost similar, but delayed perforation was significantly more common (1.6% in the ≥ 5 cm group vs. 0.1% in the < 5 cm group). CONCLUSIONS About two-thirds of curative resections were obtained with ESD for early gastric lesions larger than 5 cm, but delayed complications should be noted (Number: UMIN000047725).

Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined the efficacy of a novel endoscopic ligation technique with O-ring closure (E-LOC) to prevent bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) under antithrombotic therapy. METHODS This single-center prospective study involved consecutive patients who were taking antithrombotic agents and underwent gastric ESD. E-LOC was performed by anchoring the nylon loop with hemoclips on both defect edges and/or the exposed muscle layer, and using O-ring band ligation around these deployed clips. The primary outcome was post-ESD bleeding rate. Secondary outcomes were complete closure rate, procedure time, sustained closure rate, and complications. RESULTS 48 patients were finally analyzed. The post-ESD bleeding rate was 0 %, the complete closure rate was 97.9 %, and the mean closure time was 29.9 minutes. The sustained closure rate was 95.8 % at postoperative day 2-3 and 33.3 % at postoperative day 10-11. No complications occurred. CONCLUSION E-LOC may be an effective option for closing mucosal defects after gastric ESD under antithrombotic therapy. However, the preventive effect on post-ESD bleeding should be further investigated in high risk groups.

Abstract
Background and aims Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is an advanced minimally invasive technique for en bloc resection of superficial gastrointestinal lesions, which is drawn an increasing attention from its emergence. This bibliometric analysis is to evaluate the origin, current hotspots, and research trends on ESD. Methods A total of 2,131 publications on ESD from 2006 to 2020 were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database. Bibliometric visualization analyses of countries/regions, institutes, authors, journals, references and keywords were performed by CiteSpace V.5.8.R3. Results The quantity of publications on ESD increased significantly during the past 15 years. Japan occupied the leading position in terms of research power. Professor Yutaka Saito, together with the institute he belongs, the Endoscopy Division, National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo, Japan, were the most productive author and institute, respectively. Colorectal ESD led the main thematic concentrations in ESD research. The most prolific journal was Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. European ESD Guideline was the most frequently co-cited reference. Guideline, meta-analysis, endoscopic resection, poly-glycolic acid sheet, Barrett's esophagus, fibrin glue, risk and colorectal neoplasm will be the active research hotspots in the future. Conclusions These findings provide the trends and frontiers in the field of ESD, as well as valuable information for clinicians and scientists to discover the future perspectives with potential collaborators.

Effectiveness of second-look endoscopy after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection in patients taking antithrombotic agents: a multicenter propensity score matching analysis. Gastric Cancer 2022; 25:916-926. [PMID: 35622240 DOI: 10.1007/s10120-022-01303-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in antithrombotic agent users has increased, and its management remains a problem. Second-look endoscopy (SLE) following gastric ESD in antithrombotic agent users may be effective in preventing delayed bleeding, but this requires elucidation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the efficacy of SLE in reducing bleeding after gastric ESD in patients receiving antithrombotic agents. METHODS This retrospective cohort study was conducted at 19 referral hospitals in Japan. A total of 1,245 patients who were receiving antithrombotic agents underwent gastric ESD between January 2013 and July 2018. The incidence of delayed bleeding was compared between SLE and non-SLE groups using propensity score matching analysis. RESULTS Overall, 858 patients (SLE group, 657 patients; non-SLE group, 201 patients) were analyzed. After matching, 198 pairs were created. Delayed bleeding occurred in 10 patients (5.1%) in the SLE group and 16 patients (8.1%) in the non-SLE group [odds ratio (OR) 0.605, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.23-1.46, p = 0.310]. In the subgroup analysis, SLE reduced the incidence of delayed bleeding in patients receiving heparin bridging therapy (6.3% and 40.0%, respectively; p = 0.004). In the SLE group, prophylactic coagulation did not significantly reduce delayed bleeding compared to the no treatment group (14.6% and 8.6%, respectively; p = 0.140). CONCLUSIONS SLE was ineffective in reducing bleeding after gastric ESD in antithrombotic agent users, overall. A prospective comparative study is warranted to definitively evaluate the effectiveness of SLE in reducing bleeding in high-risk patients.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:3757. [PMID: 35954421 PMCID: PMC9367302 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14153757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Revised: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 07/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
According to the European and Japanese guidelines, additional treatment is recommended for cases of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and early gastric cancer (EGC) that do not meet the curability criteria for endoscopic resection (ER), i.e., non-curative ER, owing to the risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). However, the rates of LNM in such cases were relatively low (e.g., 8% for EGC). Several recent advances have been made in this field. First, pathological risk stratification for metastatic recurrence following non-curative ER without additional treatment was developed for both superficial ESCC and EGC. Second, the pattern of metastatic recurrence and prognosis after recurrence following non-curative ER without additional treatment was found to be considerably different between superficial ESCC and EGC. Third, a combination of ER and selective chemoradiotherapy was developed as a minimally invasive treatment method for clinical T1b-SM ESCC. These findings may help clinicians decide the treatment strategy for patients following non-curative ER; however, for optimal therapeutic decision-making in such patients, it is also important to predict the prognosis other than SESCC or EGC and impaired quality of life. Thus, a novel algorithm that considers these factors, as well as metastatic recurrence, should be developed.

Abstract
With the aging of the society, the proportion of elderly patients with gastric cancer is increasing and the chances of encountering elderly patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) are increasing. Because elderly patients have more comorbidities, and lower life expectancy than younger patients, the treatment strategy for elderly patients with EGC is not standardized. Therefore, it is necessary to identify risk factors related to survival of elderly patients with EGC and to establish treatment strategies according to prognosis in elderly patients with EGC.

The Safety and Clinical Validity of Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Early Gastric Cancer in Patients Aged More Than 85 Years. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14143311. [PMID: 35884373 PMCID: PMC9323451 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14143311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2022] [Revised: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a safe and minimally invasive method for the treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC). However, whether ESD for EGC is also safe and feasible in patients aged ≥85 years is unclear. The patients enrolled in this study were divided into three groups: age ≥85 years (44 patients, 49 lesions), age 65−84 years (624 patients, 687 lesions), and age ≤64 years (162 patients, 174 lesions). We evaluated the incidence of adverse events (AEs) and overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS). We analyzed the factors that had a significant impact on the prognosis of patients aged ≥85 years. No significant differences were found in the incidence of AEs among the three groups (p = 0.612). The OS was significantly lower in patients aged ≥85 years (p < 0.001). Conversely, DSS was not significantly worse in patients aged ≥85 years (p = 0.100). The poor Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index correlated with poor prognosis in patients aged ≥85 years (p < 0.001). ESD is a safe and valid treatment for EGC in patients aged ≥85 years. However, the indications should be carefully decided because it is difficult to estimate the survival contribution of ESD for EGC in patients aged ≥85 years, especially in those with poor nutritional status.
