Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with esophagus involvement and six-year follow-up: A case report
CONCLUSION: Comprehensive treatment led by hormonal therapy can result in partial or full remission of clinical symptoms. Treatment should be individualized for each patient according to their therapy response. Surveillance endoscopy is necessary for assessing mucosal disease activity and detecting malignant transformation.PMID:38516236 | PMC:PMC10950646 | DOI:10.3748/wjg.v30.i8.984 (Source: World Journal of Gastroenterology)

Preoperative pelvic pain syndromes are a risk factor for failure in patients undergoing radiofrequency endometrial ablation
Endometrial ablation is a widely used procedure for treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding in premenopausal patients. It is less invasive than hysterectomy, has high patient satisfaction rates (92%), and an excellent safety profile. Published rates of treatment failure range from 23-36%, with increased failure noted in age less than 40, history of cesarean section, abnormal imaging prior to procedure (fibroid, polyp, thickened endometrial stripe), history of tubal ligation, and irregular bleeding profile.

To visualize beyond: vaginoscopy
A vaginoscopy involves using a camera to evaluate the vaginal canal, cervix, and uterine cavity. During this procedure, a small diameter endoscope containing a light source and irrigation fluid is used without requiring a speculum or forceps used in traditional approaches to hysteroscopy. Vaginoscopy is performed to evaluate and treat various conditions including abnormal uterine bleeding, retained products of conception, and endometrial polyps. The benefits of vaginoscopy over traditional approaches to hysteroscopy include less pain and increased comfort, shortened procedure and recovery time, fewer vasovagal events, and ...

Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor improves nasal nitric oxide in patients with cystic fibrosis
Nasal nitric oxide (nNO) is known to be reduced in people with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PwPCD) and the measurement is used in PCD's diagnostic workup [1]. It was found, that nNO is not only reduced in PCD, but also in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF), and in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) even without underlying CF and nasal polyps [2,3]. It is increased in people with allergic rhinitis and asthma compared to healthy controls (HC) [2]. People with reduced nNO levels and a history of lung disease should therefore not only be evaluated for PCD, but also for CF and other diseases associated with chronic inflammation of the...

Cold EMR vs. Hot EMR for the removal of sessile serrated polyps larger than 10 mm: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) appears to be a promising technique for the removal of sessile serrated polyps (SSPs)  ≥ 10 mm. To assess the effectiveness and safety of EMR for removing SSPs ≥ 10 mm, we con... (Source: BMC Surgery)

Validation and shortcomings of the most common mouse model of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps
CONCLUSIONS: With the notable exception of local IgE production, the addition of SEB did not induce additional inflammatory or structural change in the sinuses from mice exposed to and challenged with OVA. This model might represent a model for severe upper airway allergy rather than a specific model of human eCRSwNP.PMID:38497676 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.331 (Source: Rhinology)
