Response
We read with great appreciation the insightful comments by Oyama et al.1 They state that patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are at risk for the development of IPMN-derived carcinoma and are also at an elevated risk for the development of concomitant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In their longitudinal cohort of 1404 patients w ith branch-duct IPMN, 68 patients experienced pancreatic carcinoma: 38 (55.9%) had IPMN-derived carcinoma, and 30 (44.1%) had concomitant PDAC.

Efficacy of the traction method in gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection: A randomized controlled trial
To overcome the technical difficulties associated with gastric ESD, a novel traction device that can alter the direction of traction was developed. Here, we compared the efficacy and safety of conventional ESD with that of traction-assisted gastric ESD. (Source: Gastrointestinal Endoscopy)

Risk factors and treatment strategies for cholecystitis after metallic stent placement due to malignant biliary obstruction: a multicenter retrospective study
Cholecystitis can occur after self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement for malignant biliary obstructions (MBO). Furthermore, the best treatment option for cholecystitis has not been determined. Here, we aimed to identify the risk factors of cholecystitis after SEMS placement and determine the best treatment option. (Source: Gastrointestinal Endoscopy)

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Early Esophageal Adenocarcinoma: Low Rates of Metastases in Mucosal Cancers with Poor Differentiation
Endoscopic resection (ER) is accepted as standard treatment for intramucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) with well or moderate differentiation. Poor differentiation (PD) is judged as a risk factor for lymph node metastasis (LNM) and surgery is recommended. However, the evidence for this recommendation is weak. Study aim was to analyze the clinical course of patients after ER of EAC with PD. (Source: Gastrointestinal Endoscopy)
