We analyzed ERCP procedures after gastric surgery with maintained Vater's papilla: total/partial gastrectomy Roux-en-Y, Billroth II gastrectomy, sleeve gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy.Methods: Monocentric retrospective analysis of prospective ERCP cohort in surgically altered gastric anatomy (SAGA) patients with maintained Vater's papilla between 2006 and 2024.Results: 186 ERCP procedures in 110 patients with SAGA proportions: 37% total gastrectomy Roux-en-Y, 32% Billroth II partial gastrectomy, 15% partial gastrectomy Roux-en-Y, 11% gastrojejunostomy, 4% sleeve gastrectomy and 1% less common reconstructions. ERCP indications were mainly biliary (87%). Total technical success was 82% with lower technical success in Roux-en-Y gastric surgery (73%) vs gastric surgery without Rouxen- Y (92%). 13 adverse events (GRADE II - IV) were encountered (7%) with 1 mortality due to perprocedural cardiac arrest. Sleeve gastrectomy allowed the use of conventional duodenoscopes with 100% technical success. In Billroth II patients both duodenoscopes, gastroscopes and colonoscopes as well as balloon-assisted enteroscopes were used with high technical success (94-100%), as well as in gastrojejunostomy patients (57-100%). For Roux-en-Y reconstructions, only single-balloon enteroscopes were used with acceptable success (75% in partial and 74% in total gastrectomy Roux-en-Y).Conclusions: ERCP in SAGA patients is challenging requiring different types of endoscopes, especially after Roux-en-Y total or partial gastrectomy with lower technical success as compared tods Billroth II gastrectomy, sleeve gastrectomy and gastrojejunostomy. Adverse event rates are comparable to ERCP procedures in patients with normal anatomy.","PeriodicalId":7322,"journal":{"name":"Acta gastro-enterologica Belgica","volume":"88 1","pages":"23-30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143439689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, no data are available about the impact on gastroenterologists in Belgium.Aim: We estimated the number of malpractice litigations against gastroenterologists in Belgium based on the annual reports of the Fund for Medical Accidents (FMA), residing under the Belgian national social security service (RIZIV-INAMI).Methods: FMA annual reports are available online in the public domain from 2012 onwards. We reviewed all available annual reports, focussing on results within the fields of Gastroenterology and Cardiology.Results: From 2010 to 2023 a total of 6884 applications for malpractice litigations were filed resulting in a final decision for 3185 care providers between 2014 and 2023. In this 10 years period claims were filed against 92 gastroenterologists, placing them in the top 10 of care providers at risk for malpractice litigations in Belgium. There are currently 777 practicing gastroenterologists in Belgium, indicating that over 10 years time the cumulative risk of malpractice litigation through the FMA alone is as high as 12%. The subject of the claims is not mentioned in the FMA reports, and therefore remains unknown. Compared to Cardiology, another interventional speciality within the field of Internal Medicine, gastroenterologists are more prone to malpractice litigations. Only 73 (6%; p<0.001 Chi-square) on a total of 1237 practicing cardiologists faced malpractice litigations through the FMA.Conclusion: Based on the FMA annual reports, Belgian gastroenterologists are considerably at risk of malpractice litigations reaching 12% over a 10 years time period, as compared to only 6% cumulative risk of practicing cardiologists. Endoscopy-related complications are supposedly the most common reason of malpractice litigation and Belgian gastroenterologists should be aware of this risk.","PeriodicalId":7322,"journal":{"name":"Acta gastro-enterologica Belgica","volume":"88 1","pages":"38-42"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143439699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of Aurantii Fructus Immaturus flavonoid (AFIF) tablets vs. domperidone for FD.Methods: This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, doubledummy, positive-controlled trial recruited FD patients, who were randomized 1:1 to the AFIF (AFIF and domperidone placebo) and domperidone (domperidone and AFIF placebo) groups. The primary endpoint was the rate of disappearance of all four FD symptoms (postprandial feeling of fullness, early satiety, upper abdominal pain, and upper abdominal burning sensation) after 4 treatment weeks.Results: Totally 120 and 119 patients were included in the AFIF and domperidone groups, respectively. The rates of disappearance of all four symptoms after 4 treatment weeks were 28.33% and 31.93% in the AFIF and domperidone groups, respectively (p=0.5748). The rate of disappearance of all four symptoms 4 weeks after treatment discontinuation was significantly higher in the AFIF (21.05%) compared with the domperidone group (4.39%, p=0.0002). The gastric emptying rates 2h after a meal were significantly increased in both AFIF (7.58%, p<0.0001) and domperidone (6.95%, p=0.0121) groups versus baseline, without a significant between-group difference (p=0.8457). Twenty-two (1 moderate) and 43 (3 moderate) adverse events occurred in the AFIF (19.17%) and domperidone (36.13%) groups, respectively.Conclusion: The efficacy of AFIF tablets is similar to that of domperidone after 4 treatment weeks, while AFIF tablets may have a better safety profile than domperidone. Additionally, AFIF tablets have a significant advantage over domperidone in the rate of symptom disappearance 4 weeks after treatment discontinuation.","PeriodicalId":7322,"journal":{"name":"Acta gastro-enterologica Belgica","volume":"87 4","pages":"484-493"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142913495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Colonoscopy is the gold standard screening test to detect premalignant lesions with endoscopic polypectomy preventing evolution to CRC. Endoscopic polypectomy is effective with a higher safety profile and is less costly as compared to surgery. Bestpractice polypectomy technique is crucial, as 10% of polyps <2 cm are incompletely resected and may therefore play a significant role in the development of post colonoscopy colorectal cancer (PCCRC). Hot snare polypectomy (HSP) has traditionally been the technique of choice for endoscopic polypectomy but is associated with a small but appreciable risk of adverse events, primarily postpolypectomy bleeding and perforation. Recent high-quality studies have demonstrated the similar efficacy and superior safety profile of cold snare polypectomy (CSP) for polyps less than 10 mm in size. In daily clinical practice, the vast majority of colorectal polyps encountered by gastroenterologists are less than 10 mm, making CSP the technique of choice. Widespread use of CSP over HSP may therefore significantly reduce the number of adverse events associated with endoscopic polypectomy. The indication for CSP may be extended to larger lesions, including large, non-dysplastic sessile serrated lesions and small pedunculated polyps with a thin stalk. In addition, the risk-benefit ratio of CSP is favourable in patients in whom interruption of anticoagulants is a concern in terms of thromboembolic risk. In this review, the focus will be on safety of hot versus cold snare polypectomy as a technique for the resection of diminutive and small polyps.","PeriodicalId":7322,"journal":{"name":"Acta gastro-enterologica Belgica","volume":"87 4","pages":"505-516"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142913538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study assessed its possible impact on occurrence and stage of colorectal cancer diagnoses in Belgium.Methods: Population-based data from the Belgian Cancer Registry were used to extrapolate 2017-2019 trends in incidence and stage distribution to expected counts for 2020 that were subsequently compared to the observed values. Stage-specific predictions were corrected to account for the overall decline in diagnoses.Results: In 2020, 705 fewer than expected invasive and 255 fewer in situ colorectal cancers were diagnosed. For colon cancer, significant declines were observed in all genders and regions, mainly in the screening age group and in age 75+. For rectal cancers, there was only a significant decline in the latter two groups. Colon cancer pStage distribution did not change significantly. In situ rectal tumors showed a relative decline in Flanders and in the screening age group. In the latter group, more than expected cStage III rectal cancers were observed in women.Conclusions: The excess decline in in situ rectal cancers is likely attributable to the temporary suspension of the colorectal screening program during the first pandemic wave. The overall decline in colon and rectal cancer incidence in Belgium in 2020 was not accompanied by a stage shift. Longer-term effects or impact on clinically relevant outcomes cannot be excluded.","PeriodicalId":7322,"journal":{"name":"Acta gastro-enterologica Belgica","volume":"87 4","pages":"445-455"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142913579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
