Adult pancreatoblastoma with atypical histological morphology combined with familial adenomatous polyposis: a rare case report
Pancreatoblastoma (PB) is a rare malignant pancreatic epithelial tumor that mostly occurs in children and occasionally occurs in adults. The tumor has acinar cell differentiation and squamous corpuscles/squamous epithelial islands, which are frequently separated by fibrous bundles. Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease characterized by the presence of numerous adenomatous polyps in the colon and rectum. Cases of pancreatoblastoma combined with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) are rarely reported. A review of a rare case of adult pancreatoblastoma with atypical histological morp...

Preoperative multimodal ultrasonic imaging in a case of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome complicated by atypical lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia: a case report and literature review
ConclusionsMultimodal ultrasound can visualize morphological features, solid components inside, and blood supplies of the G-EAC lesion and distinguish the G-EAC lesion from normal adjacent tissues. This facilitates preoperative diagnosis and staging of PJS-related G-EAC, thereby aiding subsequent health and reproductive management for patients with PJS.

Diagnostic Performance of Endoscopic Ultrasound Elastography for Differential Diagnosis of Gallbladder Polyp
It is difficult to differentiate between neoplastic and non-neoplastic gallbladder (GB) polyps before surgery. Endoscopic ultrasound-elastography (EUS-EG) is a non-invasive complementary diagnostic method. The utility of EUS-EG in the differential diagnosis of GB polyps has not been investigated. We aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of EUS-EG for the differential diagnosis of GB polyps. (Source: Gastrointestinal Endoscopy)

Rectus abdominis muscle abscess after performing colonoscopy —A case report
This graphical represents the abstract of the case and article highlights. Key Clinical MessageEndoscopic removal of premalignant polyps can prevent colorectal cancers. It is considered a safe procedure, yet there are some complications reported. Rectus abdominis muscle abscess (RAMA) is a type of pyomyositis seen as a complication of rectus sheath hematoma. Predisposing factors to RAMA include trauma, diabetes mellitus, alcohol abuse, Intravenous drug abuse and hematologic diseases.In this article, we report a case of a 74-year-old patient with abscess formation in the Rectus Abdominis muscle after colonoscopy and polypec...

Polyp segmentation with interference filtering and dynamic uncertainty mining
Phys Med Biol. 2024 Feb 21. doi: 10.1088/1361-6560/ad2b94. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAccurate polyp segmentation from colonoscopy images plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer. However, existing polyp segmentation methods are inevitably affected by various image noises, such as reflections, motion blur, and feces, which significantly affect the performance and generalization of the model. In addition, coupled with ambiguous boundaries between polyps and surrounding tissue, i.e., small inter-class differences, accurate polyp segmentation remains a challenging problem. To address t...

Effect of an E-learning resource on endoscopists ’ proximal serrated polyp detection rate: a randomized controlled trial
Conclusion In an era of increased awareness and increasing PSPDRs, endoscopists who undertook a one-time e-learning course significantly accelerated the increase in PSPDR compared with endoscopists who did not undertake the e-learning. Widespread implementation might reduce PCCRC incidence.
