Underwater versus conventional endoscopic mucosal resection for ≥10 mm sessile or flat colorectal polyps: A systematic review and meta-analysis
by Xue Wang, Yue Wang, Xueyan Cao, Chunmei Zhang, Lin Miao Background and aimUnderwater endoscopic mucosal resection (UEMR) has been an emerging substitute for conventional EMR (CEMR). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at comparing the efficiency and safety of the two techniques for removing ≥10 mm sessile or flat colorectal polyps. MethodsPubMed, Cochrane Library and Embase databases were searched up to February 2023 to identify eligible studies that compared the outcomes of UEMR and CEMR. This meta-analysis was conducted on the en bloc resection rate, R0 resection rate, complete resection rate, procedure t...

The role of advanced endoscopy in appendiceal polyp management and outcomes
ConclusionAdvanced endoscopic interventions for appendiceal orifice mucosal neoplasms can be performed with a low rate of complications and early recurrence. While conventionally lesions at the appendiceal orifice are often treated with surgical resection, advanced endoscopic interventions are an alternative approach with promising results which allow for cecal preservation.

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...

Nasal polyp due to Trichoderma harzianum-A case report
We describe here a case of nasal polyp of the left nose due to Trichoderma harzianum, an emerging fungal infection with an often fatal outcome. Culture showed growth of T. harzianum which was identified by cultural characteristics, microscopic morphology, and molecular methods. The patient was initially treated with a combination of surgical removal of the polyp and oral antibiotics. This case points out that careful scrutiny of nasal polyp is required to ensure accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of cases without recurrence.PMID:38394411 | DOI:10.4103/ijpm.ijpm_204_23 (Source: Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology)
