[PMID: 38831214 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-024-10927-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postendoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PEECS) is commonly observed after performing endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for esophageal neoplasia. However, data on the incidence and risk factors for PEECS in the esophagus are lacking due to an unclear definition of PEECS and varied clinical settings. Therefore, we aimed to determine the risk factors for PEECS in patients undergoing ESD for esophageal neoplasia. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data of relevant clinical and endoscopy-specific parameters from 202 consecutive patients with esophageal neoplasias (139 carcinomas and 63 dysplasias) who underwent ESD under general anesthesia. Esophageal PEECS was defined by satisfying at least two of the following criteria: fever ≥ 37.8 °C, leukocytosis ≥ 10,800/mm3, and localized chest pain ≥ 5/10 points as assessed on a numeric rating scale within 24 h after ESD. Significant factors associated with PEECS were determined by regression analysis. RESULTS PEECS was recorded in 98 of 202 (48.5%) patients. Patients with PEECS exhibited a larger tumor size (25.0 vs. 17.0 mm, P = 0.002), longer procedure (40.0 vs. 29.5 min, P = 0.021) and hemostasis times (5.0 vs. 3.5 min, P = 0.004), required greater submucosal injection volume (60.0 mL vs. 50.0 mL, P = 0.030), and had a lower rate of local steroid injection (4.1% vs. 12.5%, P = 0.029) than those without PEECS. Multivariate regression analysis revealed tumor size ≥ 17 mm (P = 0.047), procedure time ≥ 33 min (P = 0.027), and hemostasis time ≥ 5 min (P = 0.007) as risk factors for PEECS. In addition, local steroid injection was a significant negatively associated factor (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Patients with a large tumor, prolonged procedure and hemostasis times are at a high risk of PEECS occurrence. Further, local steroid injection is a negatively associated factor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PEECS) is an uncommon complication after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). This study aimed to explore the risk factors of PEECS for superficial colorectal lesions based on the latest and consistent diagnostic criteria and to establish a predictive nomogram model. METHODS This retrospective analysis included patients with superficial colorectal lesions who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) between June 2008 and December 2021 in our center. The independent risk factors of PEECS for superficial colorectal lesions were identified using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression analysis, as well as univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression, and derived predictive nomogram model was constructed. RESULTS Among the 555 patients with superficial colorectal lesions enrolled, PEECS occurred in 45 (8.1%) patients. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that female sex (OR 3.94, P < 0.001), age > 50 years (OR 4.28, P = 0.02), injury to muscle layer (OR 10.38, P < 0.001), non-lifting sign (OR 2.20, P = 0.04) and inadequate bowel preparation (OR 5.61, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors of PEECS for superficial colorectal lesions. A predictive nomogram model was constructed based on the above five predictors. For this model, the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.855, the calibration curve exhibited good consistency between the prediction and the actual observation, and the C-index was confirmed as 0.843 by bootstrap method. CONCLUSION Female sex, age > 50 years, injury to muscle layer, non-lifting sign and inadequate bowel preparation were independent risk factors of PEECS for superficial colorectal lesions. The proposed nomogram could accurately predict the risk of PEECS for superficial colorectal lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was widely used for the removal of esophageal tumors, and post-endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PEECS) was one of the postoperative adverse events. The aim of this research was to develop and validate a model to predict electrocoagulation syndrome after endoscopic submucosal dissection of esophageal tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent esophageal ESD in our hospital were retrospectively included. A predictive nomogram was established based on the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis, and bootstrapping resampling was used for internal validation. Besides, the clinical usefulness of the nomogram was evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve. RESULTS A total of 552 patients who underwent esophageal ESD were included in the study, and the incidence of PPECS was 12.5% (69/552). Risk factors associated with PEECS (p < 0.1) were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis, and the final model included four variables, namely gender, diabetes, tumor size and operation time. The predictive nomogram was constructed based on the above four variables, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.811 (95% CI 0.767-0.855). The calibration curve of the nomogram presented good agreement between the predicted and actual probabilities. DCA showed that the model improved patient outcomes by helping to assess the risk of PEECS in patients compared to an all-or-no treatment strategy. In addition, the clinical impact curve of the model also indicates that the nomogram has a high clinical net benefit. CONCLUSION In conclusion, we have developed a predictive nomogram for PEECS after ESD for esophageal tumors with good predictive accuracy and discrimination. This predictive nomogram can be effectively used to identify high-risk patients with PEECS, which will help clinicians in clinical decision-making and early intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is technically challenging, especially for trainees, and requires a safe training system. This study aimed to identify predictors of technical difficulty facing trainees performing esophageal ESD to establish such system. METHODS This was a single-center retrospective study of patients with esophageal cancer who underwent ESD performed by trainees between January 2010 and August 2022. Technical difficulties were defined as muscularis propria exposure and long procedure time (≥ 90 min). Factors associated with these technical difficulties were investigated. RESULTS A total of 798 lesions in 721 patients were evaluated. Muscularis propria exposure occurred in 298 lesions (37.3%), including 10 perforations (1.3%). The procedure time was ≥ 90 min in 134 lesions (16.8%). In the multivariate analysis, tumor size ≥ 20 mm, tumors ≥ 1/2 of the circumference, and those close to previous treatment scars significantly increased the incidence of both difficulties, whereas tumors in the upper esophagus significantly decreased this incidence. Furthermore, female sex and tumors in the left wall were independent predictors of muscularis propria exposure, and elevated morphology was an independent predictor of long procedure time. Muscularis propria exposure and long procedure time occurred in more than half of the cases with three or more predictors of each difficulty. CONCLUSIONS Large tumors and tumors close to previous treatment scars increase technical difficulties for trainees in esophageal ESD. Conversely, tumors in the upper esophagus reduce these difficulties. These results enable us to predict the difficulty level preoperatively and select appropriate cases in stepwise training.

Abstract
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intra-tunnel dissection using hemostatic forceps and needle-type device for patients with esophageal circumferential lesions (ECLs). Patients with ECLs were enrolled in the study and underwent endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) or hemostatic forceps-based ESTD (ESFTD). All patients were divided into three subgroups according to longitudinal length of the lesions (LLLs): >8 cm, 4-8 cm and < 4 cm. The clinical data such as gender, age, length of lesions and operating time were collected. A total of 152 patients were included in this study and comprised 80 cases of ESFTD and 72 cases of ESTD. The procedure time was markedly shorter in the ESFTD group than in the ESTD group (P < 0.001). Moreover, ESFTD significantly increased the rate of complete resection and reduced specimen injury in LLLs >8 cm and 4-8 cm subgroup compared with ESTD (P < 0.001), but not in <4 cm subgroup (P > 0.05). The perforation and infection rate were similar in ESFTD and ESTD group (P > 0.05). However, ESFTD effectively decreased the muscular injury rate' the duration of chest pain and the time from endoscopic surgery to first occurrence of esophageal stenosis compared with ESTD group (P < 0.01). ESFTD has better efficacy and safety than ESTD in the treatment of ECLs, especially for large lesions. ESFTD could be recommended for patients with ECLs.

Abstract
Nonthermal irreversible electroporation (NTIRE) is emerging as a promising tissue ablation technique. However, maintaining irreversible electroporation (IRE) electrodes against displacement during strong esophageal spasms remains an obstacle. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of newly designed balloon-type endoscopic IRE catheters. Six pigs were randomly allocated to each catheter group, and each pig was subjected to four ablations at alternating voltages of 1500 V and 2000 V. Esophagogastroscopy was performed during the IRE. The ability of balloon-type catheters to execute complete IRE with 40 pulses was assessed. The success rate was higher for the balloon-type catheter than that for the basket-type (12/12 [100%] vs. 2/12 [16.7%], p < 0.001). Following gross inspection and histologic analysis of the 1500-V vs. 2000-V balloon-type catheter revealed a larger mucosal damage area (105.3 mm2 vs. 140.8 mm2, p = 0.004) and greater damage depth (476 μm vs. 900 μm, p = 0.02). Histopathology of the ablated tissue revealed separated epithelium, inflamed lamina propria, congested muscularis mucosa, necrotized submucosa, and disorganized muscularis propria. Balloon-type catheters demonstrated efficacy, achieving full electrical pulse sequences under NTIRE conditions, and a safe histological profile below 2000 V (1274 V/cm). Optimal electrical conditions and electrode arrays pose ongoing challenges.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative body movements are one of the causes of difficulty in performing esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) under conscious sedation. The use of local anesthetics as local injection materials during ESD may overcome this difficulty. We clinically evaluated the lidocaine injection method (LIM) in the submucosa during esophageal ESD. METHODS This was a single-center, prospective, double-blind, randomized trial. Patients who underwent esophageal ESD under conscious sedation from June 2018 to May 2021 were included in this study. In the LIM group, lidocaine was used for submucosal injection during ESD; in the control group, ESD was performed without lidocaine. The primary outcome was the presence of body movements. RESULTS Fifty patients were enrolled and randomized in a 1:1 ratio in two groups. The incidence of body movements was significantly lower in the LIM group (12% [3/25]) than in the control group (48% [12/25]; P = 0.01). The median additional dose of midazolam was 2 mg (interquartile range [IQR]: 0.5-4 mg) in the LIM group and 4 mg (IQR: 3-6 mg) in the control group, which was significantly lower in the LIM group (P < 0.01). The median visual analog scale score for endoscopist satisfaction was 7 (IQR: 5-8) in the LIM group and 5 (IQR: 4-6.5) in the control group, which was significantly higher in the LIM group. CONCLUSIONS LIM during esophageal ESD reduced body movements while decreasing the level of sedation. Therefore, LIM during esophageal ESD is an option for maintaining good sedation (UMIN000032804).

Injury to the muscle layer, increasing the risk of post-colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2023; 38:87-93. [PMID: 36200387 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM In colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), post-ESD electrocoagulation syndrome (PECS) has been recognized as one of the major complications. There are no reports on the relationships between ESD findings and PECS. This study aims to evaluate the risk factors for PECS, including ESD findings such as muscularis propria exposure. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent colorectal ESD between January 2017 and December 2021 in Japan. The grade of injury to the muscle layer caused by ESD was categorized as follows: Grade 0, no exposure of muscularis propria; Grade 1, muscularis propria exposure; Grade 2, torn muscularis propria; and Grade 3, colon perforation. The risk factors for PECS, including injury to the muscle layer, were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS Out of 314 patients who underwent colorectal ESD, PECS occurred in 28 patients (8.9%). The multivariate analysis showed that female sex (odds ratio [OR] 3.233; 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.264-8.265, P = 0.014), large specimen size (≥ 40 mm) (OR 6.138; 95% CI: 1.317-28.596, P = 0.021), long procedure time (≥ 90 min) (OR 2.664; 95% CI: 1.053-6.742, P = 0.039), and Grade 1 or 2 injury to the muscle layer (OR 3.850; 95% CI: 1.090-13.61, P = 0.036) were independent risk factors for PECS. CONCLUSIONS Injury to the muscle layer, such as exposure or tear, was identified as a novel independent risk factor for PECS. We should perform colorectal ESD carefully to avoid injuring the muscle layers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Post-endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PEECS) is a rare complication following endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). However, many aspects of PEECS are still controversial and there is a lack of up-to-date review. The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive review on PEECS. AREAS COVERED The English-language literature was searched for articles on PEECS, with a focus on its pathogenesis, definition, and diagnosis, incidence rate, risk factors, prevention, management, and prognosis. EXPERT OPINION Many aspects of PEECS are still controversial such as etiology, diagnostic criteria, prevention and management. The recent studies tend to agree on the diagnostic criteria for PEECS, defined as localized abdominal tenderness and fever or inflammatory response without delayed perforation. Most patients with PEECS have a favorable prognosis with conservative treatment and more high-quality studies are needed in the controversial aspects mentioned above.

Efficacy of endoscopic clip closure for nonperforated muscle layer exposure during esophageal endoscopic submucosal dissection. Dis Esophagus 2022; 35:6537048. [PMID: 35217865 DOI: 10.1093/dote/doac009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Revised: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Exposure of the muscle layer during endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the esophagus can lead to complications such as fever and pain. Although closure with endoscopic clips is widely used when perforation is a major complication, its value when the exposed muscle layer is not perforated is unclear. Data for 104 lesions in 104 patients who underwent esophageal ESD between 2008 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with multiple tumors, those who experienced procedure-related adverse events such as aspiration pneumonitis, perforation during ESD, or delayed bleeding, and those in whom the muscle layer was not exposed were excluded. The clinical course of inflammation after ESD in patients in whom the muscle layer was exposed was examined according to whether endoscopic clips were used for closure. A significantly greater number of patients had a temperature ≤ 37.5°C in the clip closure group than in the nonclip closure group (≤37.5°C/≥37.6°C, 47/14 vs. 25/18, respectively, P = 0.040). Furthermore, significantly more patients in the clip closure group had a white blood cell count ≤10,000/μL (≤10,000/μL/>10,000/μL, 51/10 vs. 21/22, P < 0.001) and a C-reactive protein level < 1.0 mg/dL (<1.0 mg/dL/≥1.0 mg/dL, 40/21 vs. 36/7, P = 0.040) in the 24 hour post-ESD. The results were not changed after propensity score matching. Closure with endoscopic clips reduces inflammation after esophageal ESD with nonperforated muscle layer exposure. Even if there is no obvious perforation during ESD, closure of the exposed muscle layer with endoscopic clips may contribute to the clinical course post-ESD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Post-endoscopic submucosal dissection electrocoagulation syndrome (PECS) has become a common adverse event after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and esophageal ESD. However, little is known about PECS after gastric ESD. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the clinical features of PECS after gastric ESD. METHODS Patients who underwent ESD for gastric cancer or adenoma between January 2016 and December 2017 were retrospectively investigated. PECS was clinically diagnosed based on the presence of upper abdominal pain and localized abdominal tenderness with a temperature of >37.5°C, without perforation. We analyzed the clinical features of PECS. RESULTS A total of 637 ESD cases were enrolled; PECS occurred in 32 patients (5.0%), all of whom were diagnosed on postoperative Day 1. Among PECS cases, unplanned prolongation of hospitalization or fasting period was observed in 15 patients (47%). As a result, the median durations of hospitalization and fasting period were significantly longer in PECS cases (P = 0.008 and P < 0.001, respectively); however, the mean differences were less than a day. Additionally, all PECS cases recovered with conservative treatment. CONCLUSIONS PECS is considered a common adverse event after gastric ESD. More than half of patients with PECS could start diets and be discharged as well as those without PECS.

Abstract
Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used for early stage esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions. Non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) is a frequent complication of ESD. However, little is known about its incidence and associated factors. This study investigated the pain incidence and predictive factors for pain development after ESD for esophageal neoplasms. We enrolled a total of 309 patients with esophageal neoplasms, who underwent ESD in our center from January 2018 to June 2019. Sociodemographic and clinicopathological information for all patients was collected, and patients were divided into either a pain-free group (n = 156) or a pain group (n = 153) according to whether there was onset of NCCP 24-48 hours after surgery. We made comparisons between groups using Student's t test or the χ2 test. Logistic-regression analysis was used to screen for risk factors. There were statistically significant differences in histories of previous surgery (P = 0.039), lesion size (P = 0.026), operation time (P = 0.009), and postoperative fever (P = 0.001). History of previous surgery (P = 0.043) and postoperative fever (P = 0.007) were independent risk factors for chest pain after esophageal ESD treatment. Chest pain and fever prolonged postoperative hospitalization time (P = 0.005, P = 0.001) and increased hospitalization cost (P = 0.034, P < 0.001). A history of previous surgery and postoperative fever was associated with the occurrence of NCCP after ESD in patients with esophageal neoplasms. NCCP and fever after esophageal ESD increased both hospitalization time and cost.

Chest Pain after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Esophageal Cancer: The Simple and Clinically Useful Surrogate Marker for Transmural Thermal Injury by Electrocoagulation. Digestion 2021; 102:607-614. [PMID: 33032290 DOI: 10.1159/000510353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2020] [Accepted: 07/21/2020] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) of early esophageal cancer (EC) is becoming more widespread. Post-ESD coagulation syndrome (CS) has been proposed as temporary inflammatory signs that occur during the post-ESD period caused by transmural thermal injury by electrocoagulation. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the association between chest pain and abnormal levels of inflammatory markers during the post-esophageal ESD period. We also investigate the clinical importance of chest pain to define the post-esophageal ESD CS. METHODS We examined 42 patients with thoracic EC who underwent ESD. RESULTS The incidence of chest pain after esophageal ESD is 35.7% and associated with elevation of WBC count on postoperative day 1 (WBC day 1) (p = 0.022). Multivariate logistic regression analysis using the procedure-related factors revealed that WBC day 1 was an independent predictive factor for chest pain (p = 0.034). The elevation of WBC count is associated with the resected esophageal circumference (p for trend = 0.018), specimen size (p = 0.031), and procedural time (p = 0.004). The incidence of post-esophageal ESD CS was estimated ranging from 11.9 to 54.8% using previously reported criteria. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of chest pain after ESD was only associated with postoperative elevation of WBC day 1. In considering the elevation of WBC count associated with procedure-related factors, chest pain possibly reflected transmural thermal injury by electrocoagulation during ESD. Post-esophageal ESD chest pain is a simple and clinically useful surrogate marker for transmural thermal injury and is a vital sign of post-esophageal ESD CS.

Prospective study of endoscopic focal cryoballoon ablation for esophageal squamous cell neoplasia in China. Gastrointest Endosc 2019; 90:204-212. [PMID: 30922862 PMCID: PMC7545726 DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2019.03.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2018] [Accepted: 03/03/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Esophageal squamous cell neoplasia (ESCN) has a significant risk for progression to cancer. Current treatment options, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) or submucosal dissection (ESD), have their limitations. The cryoballoon focal ablation system (CbFAS) is a novel endoscopic ablation therapy device. We aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of CbFAS for eradication of ESCN. METHODS In this single-center prospective trial in China, patients with 1 flat unstained lesion (USL) on Lugol chromoendoscopy that contained moderate- or high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia (MGIN or HGIN, respectively) were enrolled. CbFAS was performed using side-by-side applications of 10 seconds, treatment was repeated at 3-month intervals until a complete response (CR) was established. The response at 12 months was the primary trial endpoint. Safety phone calls were performed at 2, 7, and 30 days after the initial CbFAS. RESULTS We enrolled 80 patients (59 MGIN, 21 HGIN) with a median USL length of 3 cm (interquartile range [IQR], 3-4). Seventy-nine received treatment, with a median of 5 side-by-side applications (IQR, 4-7) per patient over a median of 8 minutes (IQR, 5-10). After a single treatment, 70 of 78 patients (90%) exhibited CR, and 1 was lost to follow-up. The other 8 with persisting USLs were retreated, and all achieved CR after this second treatment. At 12 months after the initial CbFAS, 76 of 78 patients (97%) exhibited CR and 2 (3%) had recurrent MGIN. No strictures or serious adverse events occurred. Four patients developed self-limiting mucosal lacerations on balloon inflation. The postprocedure median pain score was 1 of 10 (IQR, 0-2) at day 2 and 0 (0-0) at days 7 and 30. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that the CbFAS is safe, well tolerated, and effective in inducing endoscopic and histologic remission in patients with ESCN of limited size.
