Abstract
Objectives Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for colorectal tumors with positive muscle-retracting (MR) sign often results in incomplete resection or discontinuation owing to the difficulty of submucosal dissection. The present study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in diagnosing the MR sign and performing ESD using the pocket-creation method (PCM). Methods Thirty-six cases of colorectal tumors with positive MR sign during ESD between January 2015 and December 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Cases were divided into two groups: 1) the conventional method (CM) group, comprising 29 cases, and 2) the PCM group with seven cases, in which preoperative EUS and ESD using PCM were performed. Treatment outcomes were compared between the groups. The diagnostic yield of EUS for the MR sign was evaluated among large sessile tumors >20 mm in which preoperative EUS was performed. Results Histologic diagnosis was adenoma or Tis carcinoma in 12 cases (33%), T1 carcinoma in 18 cases (50%), T2 carcinoma in four cases (11%), and unevaluable in two cases (6%). The sensitivity and specificity of the EUS-MR sign for large sessile tumors were 87.5% and 83.3%, respectively. ESD was achieved in all cases in the PCM group, although it was discontinued in eight cases (28%) in the CM group. There were significant differences between the PCM and CM groups in en bloc resection (100% vs. 48%, p = 0.013) and R0 resection rates (71% vs. 31%, p = 0.049). Conclusion The MR sign can be predicted by preoperative EUS, and ESD using PCM allows en bloc resection.

Abstract
Objectives Underwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) is a simpler procedure for superficial non-ampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADET) than conventional endoscopic mucosal resection (cEMR). This study aimed to evaluate whether cEMR can be substituted by UEMR for SNADET in terms of effectiveness, safety, and learning curve. Methods A total of 157 consecutive patients with 203 SNADETs ≤20 mm in diameter, including 107 lesions resected by cEMR and 96 lesions resected by UEMR, between January 2019 and May 2023, were retrospectively recruited. The treatment outcomes were compared between the cEMR and UEMR groups. The risk factors for incomplete resection by UEMR were analyzed using univariate and multivariate analyses. Lesions in the UEMR group were divided chronologically into five periods; thereafter, the en bloc resection rate and procedure time were compared. Results No significant differences existed between the cEMR and UEMR groups in the mean procedure time (3.9 min vs. 3.6 min, p = 0.1380) or en bloc resection rate (91% vs. 94%, p = 0.4138). No perforation was observed in either group. Tumor size was an independent risk factor for incomplete resection using UEMR (p < 0.01). The history of biopsy was not associated with incomplete resection using UEMR. The en bloc resection rate of UEMR was 100% (20/20) in the first period and ranged from 90% to 100% over all periods. Conclusion UEMR is safe and effective for SNADET ≤20 mm, regardless of a history of biopsy, and is easy to learn. Thus, UEMR can serve as an alternative to cEMR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) develop not only UC-associated neoplasias but also sporadic neoplasias (SNs). However, few studies have described the characteristics of SNs in patients with UC. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the clinical features and prognosis of SNs in patients with UC. METHODS A total of 141 SNs in 59 patients with UC, detected by surveillance colonoscopy at Hiroshima University Hospital between January 1999 and December 2021, were included. SNs were diagnosed based on their location, endoscopic features, and histopathological findings along with immunohistochemical staining for Ki67 and p53. RESULTS Of the SNs, 91.5% were diagnosed as adenoma and 8.5% were diagnosed as carcinoma (Tis carcinoma, 3.5%; T1 carcinoma, 5.0%). Most lesions (61.0%) were located in the right colon, 31.2% were located in the left colon, and 7.8% were located in the rectum. When classified based on site of lesion, 70.9% of SNs occurred outside and 29.1% within the affected area. Of all SNs included, 95.7% were endoscopically resected and 4.3% were surgically resected. Among the 59 patients included, synchronous SNs occurred in 23.7% and metachronous multiple SNs occurred in 40.7% during surveillance. The 5-year cumulative incidence of metachronous multiple SNs was higher in patients with synchronous multiple SNs (54.2%) than in those without synchronous multiple SNs (46.4%). CONCLUSION Patients with UC with synchronous multiple SNs are at a higher risk of developing metachronous multiple SNs and may require closer follow-up by total colonoscopy than patients without synchronous SNs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When total submucosal dissection is difficult to achieve during conventional colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (C-ESD), the lesion can be resected by final snaring through salvage hybrid ESD (SH-ESD). This study aimed to examine the outcomes of SH-ESD and identify its indications that could achieve en bloc resection. METHODS We recruited 1039 consecutive patients with colorectal lesions that underwent ESD at Hiroshima University Hospital between January 2015 and December 2020. C-ESD was attempted thoroughly in 924 lesions (C-ESD group, including 9 lesions in which ESD was discontinued), and SH-ESD was performed owing to some difficulties in 115 lesions (SH-ESD group). Risk factors for incomplete resection by SH-ESD and ESD discontinuation were evaluated using multivariate analysis. The outcomes were compared between cases with remaining undissected submucosa of < 20 mm in diameter in the SH-ESD and C-ESD groups, using propensity score matching. RESULTS Multivariate analysis revealed that a procedure time > 80 min and remaining undissected submucosa ≥ 20 mm in diameter were significant risk factors for incomplete resection after SH-ESD and ESD discontinuation. By propensity score matching analysis, procedure time was significantly shorter in the SH-ESD group with remaining undissected submucosa < 20 mm in diameter than in the C-ESD group (71 min vs. 90 min, p = 0.0053), although no significant difference was found in the en bloc resection rate (94% vs. 87%, p = 0.0914). CONCLUSION SH-ESD can be an alternative surgical method when conventional ESD is difficult to continue in cases in which the remaining undissected submucosa is < 20 mm in diameter.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The virtual scale endoscope (VSE) is a newly introduced endoscope that helps endoscopists in measuring colorectal polyp size (CPS) during colonoscopy by displaying a virtual scale. This study aimed to determine the usefulness of the VSE for CPS measurement and the educational benefit of using VSE images to improve CPS estimation accuracy. METHODS This study included 42 colorectal polyps in 26 patients treated at Hiroshima University Hospital. In study 1, CPS measured using a VSE before endoscopic mucosal resection was compared with CPS measured on resected specimens, and the agreement between the two measurement methods was evaluated via Bland-Altman analysis. In study 2, 14 endoscopists (5 beginners, 5 intermediates, and 4 experts) took a pre-test to determine the size of 42 polyps. After the pre-test, a lecture on CPS measurement using VSE images was given. One month later, the endoscopists took a post-test to compare CPS accuracy before and after the lecture. RESULTS In study 1, Bland-Altman analysis revealed no fixed or proportional errors. The mean bias ±95% limits of agreement (±1.96 standard deviations) of the measurement error was -0.05 ± 0.21 mm, indicating that the agreement between two measurement methods was sufficient. In study 2, the accuracy of CPS measurement was significantly higher among beginners (59.5% vs. 26.7%, p < 0.01) and intermediates (65.2% vs. 44.3%, p < 0.05) in the post-test than in the pre-test. CONCLUSION The VSE accurately measures CPS before resection, and its images are useful teaching tools for beginner and intermediate endoscopists.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The stiffness of intracranial tumors affects the outcome of tumor removal. We evaluated the stiffness of 4 common intracranial tumors by using MR elastography and tested whether MR elastography had the potential to discriminate firm tumors preoperatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-four patients with meningiomas, pituitary adenomas, vestibular schwannomas, and gliomas scheduled for resection were recruited for MR elastography. On the elastogram, the mean and the maximum shear stiffnesses were measured by placing an ROI on the tumor. Blinded to the MR elastography findings, surgeons conducted qualitative intraoperative assessment of tumor consistency by using a 5-point scale. Histopathologic diagnosis was confirmed by using the resected specimens. The mean and maximum shear stiffnesses were compared with histopathologic subtypes, and the intraoperative tumor consistency was graded by the surgeons. RESULTS The mean and maximum shear stiffnesses were the following: 1.9 ± 0.8 kPa and 3.4 ± 1.5 kPa for meningiomas, 1.2 ± 0.3 kPa and 1.8 ± 0.5 kPa for pituitary adenomas, 2.0 ± 0.4 kPa and 2.7 ± 0.8 kPa for vestibular schwannomas, and 1.5 ± 0.2 kPa and 2.7 ± 0.8 kPa for gliomas. The mean and maximum shear stiffnesses for meningiomas were higher than those of pituitary adenomas (P < .05). The mean and maximum shear stiffnesses were significantly correlated with the surgeon's qualitative assessment of tumor consistency (P < .05). The maximum shear stiffness for 5 firm tumors was higher than that of nonfirm tumors (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS MR elastography could evaluate intracranial tumors on the basis of their physical property of shear stiffness. MR elastography may be useful in discriminating firm tumors preoperatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we demonstrated our new device for open donor liver surgery with left-sided heptectomy by use of the real-time moving windows (RTMW) method with 8-cm transverse skin incision for living donors from the viewpoints of cosmetic, economic, and safety procedures. METHODS After the upper abdominal 8-cm transverse skin incision was made, the subcutaneous area was exfoliated and the reverse T-shaped-abdominal incision was made, as in open surgery. After that, the 2 Kent hooks for the upper region and the 2 surgical arms for the lower region were placed. The operative fields of hepatic vein, hepatic hilus, and common hepatic artery were explored, respectively, by use of the RTMW method with the use of the 4 surgical hooks. Hepatic parenchymal dissection was carried out with the use of CUSA and laparosonic coagulating shears. Manipulations of 3 hepatic vessels and the hepatic duct were done by the usual procedure of open surgery. RESULTS This operative procedure could be performed without laparoscopic techniques. The operative time was 7 hours, without blood transfusion. The operative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 11. CONCLUSIONS Our RTMW method for donor left-sided hepatectomy is considered to be a useful operative procedure from the viewpoints of donor safety, cosmetic advantage, and cost performance.

Abstract
An atypical polypoid adenomyoma (APAM) is a benign mixed epithelial and mesenchymal uterine tumor. Patients typically present with hypermenorrhea or abnormal uterine bleeding, and the tumor is most commonly found in nulliparous or infertile women of reproductive age. The natural pathological course of an APAM remains unclear because of the rarity of the disease. The coexistence or sequential development of low-grade malignant endometrial tumors has been reported; however, reports of a mixed carcinoma arising from an APAM have not been published yet. In this report, the authors describe the case of a woman with a mixed carcinoma of the uterus arising from an APAM. This case extends our knowledge of the natural pathological course of an APAM and its etiological relationship with a mixed carcinoma of the uterus, which may contribute to the development of management strategies for an APAM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Angiogenesis is very important in clinical features of pituitary adenomas. We investigated the relationship between the blood flow of nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas measured by arterial spin-labeled perfusion imaging and the microvessel attenuation of the tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS Conventional MR imaging with contrast-enhanced T1WI and arterial spin-labeled perfusion imaging were performed before surgery in 11 consecutive patients with nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas. ROIs were drawn on the tumors, and the degrees of enhancement were calculated by dividing the signal intensity on the contrast-enhanced T1WI by that on the nonenhanced TIWI. As an index of tumor perfusion, a quantitative analysis was performed by using normalized tumor blood flow values calculated by dividing the mean value of the tumor region of interest by the mean region of interest values in the 2 cerebellar hemispheres. The relative microvessel attenuation was determined as the total microvessel wall area divided by the entire tissue area on CD-31-stained specimens. The degree of enhancement and the normalized tumor blood flow values were compared with relative microvessel attenuation. Additionally, intra- and postoperative tumor hemorrhages were visually graded. RESULTS The degree of enhancement was not correlated with relative microvessel attenuation. Statistically significant correlations were observed between normalized tumor blood flow values and relative microvessel attenuation (P < .05). At surgery, 3 cases were visually determined to be hypervascular tumors, and 1 of these cases had symptomatic postoperative hemorrhage. A statistically significant difference in normalized tumor blood flow values was observed visually between the intraoperative hypovascular and hypervascular groups (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Arterial spin-labeled perfusion imaging reflects the vascular density of nonfunctioning pituitary macroadenomas, which may be useful in the preoperative prediction of intra- and postoperative tumor hemorrhage.

Abstract
In the patient-specific vascular CFD, determination of the inlet and outlet boundary conditions (BCs) is an important issue for a valid diagnosis. The 3D cine phase-contrast MRI (4D Flow) velocimetry is promising for this issue; yet, its measured velocities contain relatively large error and are not admissible as the BCs without any correction. This paper proposes a novel correction method for determining the BCs accurately using the 4D Flow velocimetry. First, we reveal that the error of the velocity measured by the 4D Flow at each measurement voxel is large but is distributed symmetrically. Secondly, our method pays attention to the incompressibility of the blood and the fact that the volume flow rate (VFR) in each vessel is constant on any cross sections. We reveal that the average of the cross-sectional VFRs integrated from many measurement voxel in each vessel is accurate despite the large error. Finally, we propose the novel correction method, which applies a smoothing to the measured velocities on each inlet or outlet boundary with a low-pass filter and then corrects them with the VFR. The results of the several phantom studies are presented to validate the accuracy of our method. A demonstrative analysis for an actual aneurysm is also presented to show the feasibility and effectiveness of our method.

Abstract
We report the magnetic resonance (MR) findings of clear-cell adenocarcinofibroma of the ovary. A huge multilocular cystic tumor with solid components was seen in the lower abdominal and pelvic cavity. Thickened cyst wall had low intensity on T2-weighted images, which suggested abundant fibrous tissue. Its mural nodules were strongly enhanced on contrast enhancement, which reflected malignant epithelial growth. Adenocarcinofibroma of the ovary is a rare tumor, but MR findings may be helpful to reach the correct diagnosis.

Abstract
AIM To elucidate the mechanism of occurrence of splanchnic artery aneurysm associated with coeliac artery stenosis due to compression by the median arcuate ligament, and also to discuss the management for this relatively rare condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five consecutive cases of splanchnic artery aneurysm associated with coeliac axis stenosis due to compression by the median arcuate ligament, including four cases of pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm and one case of epiploic artery aneurysm, were investigated. These cases were collected over a 5-year period in our local and affiliated hospitals. Among these five cases, three were discovered because of rupture of the aneurysm, and two were found incidentally in annual medical check-ups. RESULTS In all cases, conspicuously developed collateral arteries, which were of the dilated pancreaticoduodenal arcade and its branches, were conspicuously found on digital subtraction angiography of the superior mesenteric artery. The findings suggested that haemodynamic changes in the splanchnic arterial networks (an increase in blood flow mainly through the pancreaticoduodenal arcade), were the possible cause of the corresponding aneurysms. CONCLUSION Compression by the median arcuate ligament might be a frequent cause of splanchnic aneurysm, which, on rupture of the aneurysm, could be life-threatening.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the long axis function of both ventricles during the early neonatal period by using pulsed wave Doppler tissue (PWDT) echocardiography. DESIGN PWDT echocardiography was recorded from the lateral sites of the mitral and tricuspid annuluses and the tip of interventricular septum in 130 neonates within 24 hours after birth (day 0 group), in 135 neonates 1-7 days after birth (day 1-7 group), and in 131 healthy children (children group). RESULTS Peak systolic motion velocity (Sw) of the three ventricular walls positively correlated with the number of days after birth (p < 0.005). Compared with the children group, in neonates Sw in the right ventricle and peak early diastolic motion velocity (Ew) and peak atrial systolic motion velocity in the interventricular septum were lower than in the remaining two walls (p < 0.0005, p < 0.0001, and p< 0.0001, respectively). Although peak mitral and tricuspid flow velocities during early diastole (E) correlated with the number of hours after birth in the day 0 group, there was no significant change in the Ew of either ventricle. The E:Ew ratio of both ventricles was significantly higher in both neonate groups than in the children group (p < 0.001). The E:Ew ratio of the left ventricle was higher in the day 0 group than in the day 1-7 group (p < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS The two ventricles differ in their normal PWDT echocardiographic values and in the parameter change after birth during the early neonatal period, which may reflect differences in ventricular adaptation after birth.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes from healthy volunteers (HPMN) generated superoxide (O2*-) following treatment with various stimuli, such as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), opsonized zymozan (OZ) and arachidonic acid (AA). Other types of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAS), such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), also stimulated O2*- generation. The free form of DHA enhanced the generation of O2*- induced by PMA but inhibited that induced by OZ. In contrast, the ethylester of DHA (DHA-E) inhibited O2*- generation induced by PMA but stimulated that induced by OZ. Similar effects were also observed with ethylesters of EPA (EPA-E), DPA (DPA-E) and AA (AA-E). High concentrations of DHA-E reduced the PMA-induced formation of superoxide without affecting the cellular activity of protein kinase C (PKC). Similar phenomena were also observed with oral neutrophils from healthy volunteers (OPMN). These results indicate that PUFAS and their esters affect 02*- generation in human PMN via different pathways, thereby modulating inflammatory reactions.

Abstract
The biochemical properties and specificity of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are not well known. Because PUFAs induce apoptosis of different cells, we studied the effect of various PUFAs, such as arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), on the fate of cultured human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL-60) to elucidate the mechanism of apoptosis and the difference in action between n-3 and n-6 PUFAs. Fairly low concentrations of PUFAs inhibited the growth of HL-60 cells and induced their apoptosis by a mechanism that is sensitive to DMSO, an antioxidant, and z-Val-Ala-Asp(OMe)-fluoromethylketone (z-VAD-fmk), a pan-caspase inhibitor. PUFAs stimulated the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and activated various types of caspase-like proteases, such as caspase-3, -6, -8, and -9, but not caspase-1. In addition, PUFAs triggered the reaction leading to the cleavage of Bid, a death agonist member of the Bcl-2 family, and also released cytochrome c from mitochondria into the cytosol. PUFAs also decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential of intact HL-60 cells. All of these actions of n-3 PUFAs were stronger than those of AA, an n-6 PUFA, although the mechanism is not known. PUFAs stimulate swelling and membrane depolarization of isolated mitochondria in a cyclosporin A-sensitive manner. The results indicated that PUFA-induced apoptosis of HL-60 cells may be caused, in part, by direct action on the cells and by activation of the caspase cascade through cytochrome c release coupled with mitochondrial membrane depolarization.

Abstract
Dynamic magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for pituitary adenomas is usually performed in a coronal direction; however, small lesions between slices, or lesions located at the anterior or posterior aspect of the pituitary gland might be overlooked on MR images in only the coronal direction. The purpose of our study was to evaluate whether consecutive dynamic MR images in the coronal and sagittal planes improve detection of pituitary adenomas. Eighteen patients with pituitary microadenomas and nine with healthy pituitary glands were included in this study. MR images were performed with 1.5 T superconductive units and commercially-available head coils. After a 5 ml gadolinium contrast injection, eight serial dynamic sagittal images were obtained. Within 3 or 6 min, this was followed by a 10-15 ml gadolinium injection and acquisition of eight serial dynamic coronal images. Dynamic MR images and conventional noncontrast- and contrast-enhanced sagittal and coronal T1-weighted images were evaluated independently in a blind fashion by two neuroradiologists regarding the depiction of pituitary microadenomas. The sensitivities of dynamic enhanced MR imaging in the detection of microadenomas were 61.1% in sagittal direction, 72.2% in coronal direction respectively, and were superior to those of conventional noncontrast- and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging (22.2-50%). The sensitivity of a combination of sagittal and coronal dynamic enhanced MR imaging for the detection of microadenomas was 88.9% and was superior to those of conventional noncontrast- and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging combining sagittal and coronal directions (61.1%, 61.1%) (P<0.05, P<0.05, respectively). The specificity and accuracy of dynamic enhanced MR imaging with combination of sagittal and coronal images was 88.9% respectively. Dynamic gadolinium-enhanced MR imaging, especially using both sagittal and coronal planes, was concluded to be useful for the detection of pituitary microadenomas.
