Potential role of a novel endoscopic retrieval bag for large colorectal resected specimen: a proof-of-concept study
Endosc Int Open 2023; 11: E714-E718 DOI: 10.1055/a-2098-2664Endoscopic submucosal dissection enables en bloc resection of large superficial colorectal neoplasms. However, it is sometimes challenging to retrieve a large resected specimen via the anus without sample fragmentation. A novel “bag-type” retrieval device has been developed to accomplish complete isolation and non-destructive delivery of oversized specimens. This single-center retrospective study was performed to demonstrate the efficacy of this device for large colorectal resected specimens. Among 17 patients, we identified 18 superficial colorectal lesions f...

Impact of ERCP simulator training on early ERCP learning curves of novice trainees: a cohort study
Conclusions We demonstrate that 2-day hands-on simulator-based ERCP training course has a positive effect on the learning curves of ERCP trainees and should be considered an integral part of the training curricula for ERCP to develop skills prior to patient-based training.

Development, validation, and results of a national endoscopy safety attitudes questionnaire (Endo-SAQ)
Conclusions Endoscopy staff had largely positive safety attitudes scores but there were significant differences across domains and staff. There is evidence for the validity and reliability of Endo-SAQ. Endo-SAQ could complement current measures of patient safety in endoscopy and be used in evaluation and research.

Performance of endoscopic submucosal dissection for undifferentiated early gastric cancer: a multicenter retrospective cohort
Conclusions ESD could be considered as the initial step to manage UD-EGC, providing at least an “entire-lesion” biopsy to guide therapeutic strategy. When histology confirms absence of lymphovascular and perineural invasion, this modality could be therapeutic, providing low recurrence rates.

Incidence of retained biopsy specimens after esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy
Conclusions Retained specimens are startingly common in standard gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures and could potentially change diagnoses and management. Quality improvement measures should be instituted to monitor prevalence of retained biopsies and methods to prevent them should be developed.

EUS-guided transcolonic drainage and necrosectomy in walled-off necrosis: a retrospective, single-center case series
Endosc Int Open 2023; 11: E618-E622 DOI: 10.1055/a-2095-0272
Background and study aims Transgastric endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided drainage and, if needed, necrosectomy is the preferred treatment in patients with pancreatic walled-off necrosis. EUS-guided transcolonic or transrectal drainage and necrosectomy may serve as a minimally invasive alternative in cases in which transgastric or percutaneous drainage is either impossible or fails to secure sufficient drainage. In this paper, we retrospectively evaluated the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the treatment. We included nine patients and found a technical...

Initial experience of transpapillary gallbladder biopsy using newly designed device delivery system
Endosc Int Open 2023; 11: E613-E617 DOI: 10.1055/a-2095-0098Transpapillary gallbladder biopsy has been reported for the diagnosis of gallbladder disease, and this procedure requires special biopsy forceps or a large-diameter pusher catheter. We retrospectively examined consecutive patients who underwent transpapillary gallbladder biopsy using a newly designed device delivery system (Endosheather; Piolax Medical Device, Kanagawa, Japan). We evaluated 11 patients (median age, 71 years [28–85]) who underwent transpapillary gallbladder biopsy from June 2021 to July 2022. The selective gallbladder cannulation and delivery sys...
