Bariatric endoscopy is an evolving field known for benefits including being minimally invasive, reversible, and organ preserving, providing a promising alternative to traditional bariatric surgery. Various endoscopic procedures targeting on the stomach and small bowel have been developed. Amongst all, endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is shown to be more effective, durable, and safe. It utilizes endoscopic suturing device to perform full-thickness plication of gastric wall, thereby restricting stomach volume and altering gastric mobility to induce satiety. Its application was recently addressed by the National Institute for Health Care Excellence (NICE), the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE), the European Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE), the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Diseases (IFSO) and the World Gastroenterology Organization (WGO).

The histopathologic spectrum of HpNGNs differs significantly from that of conventional Hp-infected gastric neoplasms. Molecularly, the former harbor considerably fewer genetic and epigenetic abnormalities, reflecting the absence of chronic inflammatory conditions in the gastric mucosa. The majority of HpNGNs fall within several specific histological entities; each arise from particular background mucosa. Most originate from the fundic gland mucosa and have a gastric immunophenotype, as seen in foveolar-type gastric adenoma (FGA), oxyntic gland adenoma (OGA)/gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type (GA-FG), signet-ring cell carcinoma (SRCC), and sporadic fundic gland polyp with dysplasia (FGPD). In contrast, tumors arising from the pyloric or cardiac gland mucosa have a diverse immunophenotype, as seen in intestinal-type gastric dysplasia (IGD) and gastric cardiac carcinoma. FGA, FGPD, SRCC, and IGD are mostly found as small intramucosal lesions. OGA/GA-FG frequently progresses to invasive carcinoma, but only a few have lymph node metastases. Thus, these tumors are regarded as precancerous lesions by Western pathologists, while in Japan they tend to be diagnosed as carcinomas, even in cases of low-grade dysplasia. Gastric cardiac carcinomas, on the other hand, are often found as advanced carcinomas and harbor a high malignant biological potential. A new diagnostic framework for gastric neoplasms is required in the present era of Hp-naïve individuals in Japan.</p>","PeriodicalId":72813,"journal":{"name":"Digestive endoscopy : official journal of the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143025523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to verify the tissue invasiveness of ID-RFA using a novel RF generator and to explore its appropriate settings in an animal experiment, followed by a small clinical study. Pig liver specimens were ablated using a dedicated RF catheter and two RF generators to investigate structural differences between them and the ablation effects produced under various voltage and power settings. Appropriate settings for the novel generator were sought to provide an ablation effect equivalent to that with the recommended settings for a conventional generator. The ablation effect was also observed at various ablation times in vitro. Then we performed ID-RFA in five patients. Each generator has a different structure, and no novel generator settings are identical to the recommended conventional generator settings. Obtaining adequate ablation requires both sufficient power and sufficient voltage. Based on the validation experiments, we concluded that the appropriate novel generator settings were 125 Vp and 30 W for 30 s. In the clinical study, good tumor ablation was obtained with no recurrence after a single ID-RFA treatment, although the incidence of ductal stricture was relatively high. ID-RFA for residual intraductal lesions may potentially be curative. However, excessive ablation should be avoided. To ensure safe and effective ID-RFA, a thorough understanding of the RF generator specifications is required.</p>","PeriodicalId":72813,"journal":{"name":"Digestive endoscopy : official journal of the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143017411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
