Risk factors for delayed bleeding after intestinal polypectomy in children / 中国当代儿科杂志

OBJECTIVES@#To investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of delayed bleeding after intestinal polypectomy in children, and to provide a theoretical basis for clinical surgical intervention of intestinal polyps.@*METHODS@#A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 2 456 children with intestinal polyps who underwent endoscopic high-frequency electrocoagulation loop resection in the Endoscopy Center of Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to December 2021. According to the presence or absence of delayed bleeding after surgery, they were divided into bleeding group with 79 children and non-bleeding group with 2 377 children. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the risk factors for delayed bleeding. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to investigate the value of various indicators in predicting delayed bleeding.@*RESULTS@#Of all 2 456 children, 79 (3.22%) experienced delayed bleeding, among whom 5 children with severe delayed bleeding underwent emergency colonoscopy for hemostasis and 74 received conservative treatment, and successful hemostasis was achieved for all children. There were significant differences between the bleeding and non-bleeding groups in age, body mass index, constipation rate, location of lesion, time of endoscopic procedure, resection method (P<0.05). Children with a diameter of polyps of 6-10 mm and >20 mm were more likely to develop delayed bleeding after resection (P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that endoscopic operation time, polyp diameter, and resection method were significantly associated with delayed bleeding (P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the endoscopic operation time, polyp diameter, and resection method had a good value in predicting delayed bleeding after intestinal polypectomy, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.706, 0.688, and 0.627, respectively.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Endoscopic high-frequency electrocoagulation loop resection has a lower incidence of delayed bleeding in children with intestinal polyps, and the endoscopic operation time, polyp diameter, and resection method are closely associated with the occurrence of postoperative delayed bleeding.

Comparison study colonic polypectomy / Монголын Анагаах Ухаан

Introduction@#Colorectal cancer remains one of the critical healthcare challenges nowadays. There are a lot of studies done on colonic polypectomy around the world, and mostly diagnosis with dysplasia change, so we consider to chose to study this topic.@*Aim@#In this study, we aimed to compare the between cold snare polypectomy (CSP) and hot snare polypectomy (HSP) of removing colon polyps. This method helped us to investigate which of the two methods is most prevalent for polypectomy.@*Materials and Method@#The research was carried out using a targeted sampling method from the cases where colonoscopy was performed between 2022 and 2023, based on the Center for Imaging Diagnostics and Pathology of Third General Hospital of Mongolia with a colon polyps less than 5mm in size should be removed using the cold snare method according to the recommendation, and polyps between 5-10 mm should be removed using the hot snare method. After polypectomy, we assessed deep mucosal lesions using the Sydney classification.@*Result@#The average age of the 81 cases included in the study was 57.9 years, and the male-female ratio was 1:1.2.149 cases (75.6%) of slightly elevated type 0-IIa according to the Paris classification, according to the morphological structure revealed by endoscopy, while 79 cases (75.6%) were tubular adenoma according to histological analysis. (38.9%), low grade dysplasia 52 (25.6%) and high grade dysplasia 3 (1.5%) cases are noteworthy. Average polyp was 5-9 mm. Most of polyps removed was left side of colon especially in sigmoid colon. Bleeding rate was higher in hot snare method 11.5%. (1/149, 0.7%, 5/52, 9.6%; P = 0.6). There was no recurrent rate and no perforation in our study. @*Conclusions@#In our study, average size of 5-9 mm were removed and slightly elevated (0-IIa), sessile (0-Is) type of polyps were commonly found in the sigmoid colon. There is a higher risk of bleeding due to mucosal damage in hot snare polypectomy. A combination of hot and cold methods is equally effective for resection of colon pollyps up to 1 cm in size.

Research progress in preventing delayed bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection / 中国综合临床

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is the common method for treatment of early gastric cancer. Compared with endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), ESD can completely remove large lesions while ensuring negative margins as much as possible, which enables a more accurate pathological staging of tissue and reduces the risk of postoperative cancer recurrence. On the other hand, ESD generally results in larger ulcerations than EMR, which increases the likelihood of complications such as bleeding and perforation. Delayed bleeding is one of the main complications after gastric ESD. Delayed bleeding after ESD can cause hemorrhagic shock and even death, so we should take effective management strategies to prevent the occurrence of delayed bleeding after gastric ESD, such as the use of acid suppressive drugs, enough intraoperative hemostasis, lesion closure, and the use of lesion covering materials.

A comparative study of the complications between hot snare and cold snare polypectomy / Монголын Анагаах Ухаан

@#Colorectal cancer remains one of the critical healthcare challenges nowadays. Most patients’ disease, especially colorectal polyps develop via the adenoma carcinoma sequence; using colonoscopy with polypectomy reduces both mortality and incidence by removing precancerous adenomas, which are called polyps. In recent years, colorectal cancer tends to increase among Asian population. There are only limited studies that have been conducted in Mongolia regarding colorectal polypectomy and its complications. Both cold polypectomy and hot polypectomy are accepted methods. In this study, we aim to compare the complications (bleeding, perforation) between cold snare polypectomy (CSP) and hot snare polypectomy (HSP) of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps. After the procedure, repeated endoscopy will be performed to compare the incomplete resection rate (IRR) and complete resection rate (CRR) of mucosal residual and presence of recurrency. This will help us to investigate which of the two methods is most prevalent for polypectomy.

In recent years, colorectal cancer tends to increase among Asian population. There are only limited studies that have been conducted in Mongolia regarding colorectal polypectomy and its complications. Both cold polypectomy and hot polypectomy are accepted methods. In this study, we aimed to compare the complications (bleeding, perforation) between cold snare polypectomy (CSP) and hot snare polypectomy (HSP) of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps. After the procedure, repeated endoscopy was performed to compare the incomplete resection rate (IRR) and complete resection rate (CRR) of mucosal residual and presence of recurrency. This method helped us to investigate which of the two methods is most prevalent for polypectomy.@*Materials and Method@#The research was carried out using a targeted sampling method from the cases where colonoscopy was performed between 2020 and 2022, based on the Center for Imaging Diagnostics and Pathology of Third General Hospital of Mongolia with a colonoscopy with a high-performance Olympus EVIS EXERA III brand NBI from Japan. In this study, we selected only hyperplastic polyps and adenomas <10 mm in size. Polyps less than 5 mm in size should be removed using the cold snare method according to the recommendation, and polyps between 5-10 mm should be removed using the hot snare method. After polypectomy, we assessed deep mucosal lesions using the Sydney classification.@*Result @#According to the results of the study, in terms of age, the percentage of people having a polyp removed was relatively low among 15-39 year olds compared to the other age groups, while it was higher in those aged >65 years. In terms of body mass index, 75% of the total number of people who had a tumor removed were overweight, indicating that overweight or obese people are at higher risk of developing a colorectal polyps. In terms of gender, 63% of people who had a polyp removed were male, indicating a male predominance in polyp prevalence. The percentage of tumor questionnaires in the total study population was 0% or absent. Early detection of adenomas and hyperplastic polyps, which are precursors of tumor, is the main way to prevent the development of cancer. A slightly raised polyp was present in 53 or 79.1% of the polyps, while a broad-based polyp occurred in 13 or 19% of the polyps, indicating the predominance of the slightly raised polyp in the population. In terms of location, polyps occurred more often in the descending colon and the sigmoid colon, and complications (perforation, bleeding) related to the anatomical structure and location are more likely to occur in these parts of the colon. However, the likelihood of relapse is very low. The procedure time was 17.6 minutes on average, and in 14 cases, hemostatic clamps were placed to prevent the risk of bleeding, and in 5 cases, epinephrine was injected for hemostasis. Early detection of colorectal diseases (endoscopy), changes in the lifestyle of clients, and regular preventive examinations are the main factors to reduce the risk of cancer development, and early start of treatment as well as complete removal of adenoma, an antecedent to cancer, will have a significant impact on cancer prevention and mortality reduction.@*Conclusions@#</br>1. Left sided polyps were commonly diagnosed among study participants. </br>2. Correlation between the probability of recurrence and the anatomical location of the polyps was very low. </br>3. Our results suggest that HSP and CSP techniques can be effectively used for the complete removal of 4–10mm colorectal polyps. Moreover, there was no significant difference between CSP and HSP in terms of overall complications.

Risk factors of delayed bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection for early colorectal cancer and pre-cancerous lesions / 实用医学杂志

Objective To investgate risk factors of delayed bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissec-tion(ESD)for early colorectal tumor and precancerrous lesions. Methods We retrospectively reviewed clinical date of 138 patients with early colorectal tumor and precancerrous lesions who received ESD in Hubei Cancer Hos-pital from October 2012 to October 2016. Risk factors of delayed bleeding were analysed by univariate and multi-variable logistic regression analysis. Results Ten(7.2%)of 138 patients occurred delayed bleeding after ESD. Univariate analysis showed that there was significent difference between the bleeding group and the non-bleeding group in location of the lesion(P = 0.022),severe fibrosis of submucosa(P = 0.016),Obvious intraoperative bleeding(P = 0.032)and inadequate endosopic experience of endoscopist(P = 0.045). Multivariate Logistic re-gression analysis showed that location of lesion(P = 0.003,OR = 4.64,95%CI:1.71~12.58),severe fibrosis of submucosa(P = 0.009,OR = 4.83,95% CI:1.49~15.60)were independent risk factors of delayed bleeding after ESD for early colorectal tumor and precancerrous lesions. Conclusion Patients with early colorectal tumor and precancerrous lesions in the rectum and severe fibrosis of submucosa are prone to delayed bleeding after ESD.

Risk factors of delayed colonoscopic post-polypectomy bleeding / 中华消化内镜杂志

Objective To analyze the risk factors of delayed post-polypectomy bleeding ( DPPB) of colonoscopy. Methods The data of 459 patients who underwent colonoscopic polypectomy between January 2014 and May 2017 were summarized, and the risk factors of DPPB were analyzed. Results Among the 459 patients, a total of 572 polyps were removed, and DPPB occurred in 27 patients with 42 polyps. Univariate analysis revealed that gender (male 85. 2%), number of polyps removed (≥3 polyps, 59. 3%), complicated with hyperlipidemia (29. 6%), polyps′diameter (≥10 mm, 66. 7%), morphology (pedunculated, 81. 0%), pathological type ( adenoma, 95. 2%), and excision method ( endoscopic mucosal resection, 90. 5%) were significantly correlated with DPPB ( all P＜0. 05). Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, with hyperlipidemia, number of polyps removed, polyps′ size, and morphology were independent risk factors of DPPB (P＜0. 05). Conclusion The risk factors of DPPB include male, complicated with hyperlipidemia, excision of more than 3 polyps, more than 10 mm in diameter, and pedunculated morphology.

Risk factors for esophageal delayed bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection of early esophageal carcinoma and precancerous lesions / 中华消化内镜杂志

Objective To identify the possible risk factors for esophageal delayed bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection ( ESD ) of early esophageal carcinoma and precancerous lesions. Methods Data of 281 patients with early esophageal carcinoma and precancerous lesions treated by ESD were reviewed. Risk factors for esophageal delayed bleeding were investigated by univariate analysis and logistic multivariable regression analysis. Results Esophageal delayed bleeding occurred in 22 patients ( 7. 83%) . Univariate analysis showed there was significant difference between delayed bleeding group and non?delayed bleeding group in regard of age ( P=0. 046 ) , lesion size ( P=0. 013 ) , and lesion infiltration depth( P<0. 001 ) . Together with three factors above, the intraoperative bleeding ( P=0. 068 ) was also analyzed by Logistic multivariable regression analysis which showed only infiltration depth was the independent risk factor of early esophageal carcinoma and precancerous lesions treated by ESD( P=0. 002, OR=6. 88,95%CI:1. 07?39. 28) . Conclusion Patients older than 60 years and diameters more than 3 cm might be prone to delayed bleeding, but the direct factor is infiltration depth. The deeper lesions infiltrate, the delayed bleeding is more likely to occur.

Analysis of delayed bleeding after polypectomy with colonoscopy / 局解手术学杂志

Objective Retrospectively analyzed the data of patients with delayed bleeding after colorectal polypectomy,summarized the risk factors and treatment methods of bleeding patients,and provided the basis for further prevention and treatment of postoperative delayed bleeding.Methods Collected the clinical data of 1 243 patients who were admitted into the department of gastroenterology of third affiliated hospital of the third military medical university and accepted polypectomy with colonoscopy from January 2014 to December 2016.Divided these patients into the bleeding group and the non-bleeding group according to whether there was delayed bleeding after surgery.The age,size of polypus,location of polypus,postoperative pathology of the two groups were compared and the postoperative treatment of bleeding was evaluated.Results Among the 1 243 patients underwent colorectal polypectomy,there were 14 cases of delayed bleeding,and the incidence was 1.13%.In the bleeding group,there was 1 case of secondary delayed bleeding and 2 cases of bloody stool after hemostasis for the delayed bleeding.Delayed bleeding occurred at (4.73±2.49)days after surgery.The predilection site of of polypus was rectum in the bleeding group (7/14,50%), and the diameter of polypus was (16.65±4.91)mm in the bleeding group,which was lager than (8.07±4.23)mm in the non-bleeding group with statistical difference (P<0.05).The proportion of hypertensive and diabetic patients in the bleeding group was significantly higher than that in the non-bleeding group (P<0.05).Juvenile polyps and tubular adenoma with high grade intraepithelial neoplasia were more common in the bleeding group(P<0.05).The bleeding group achieved good hemostatic effect by purse suture,hemostatic clip,electrocautery or injection hemostasis.Conclusion Older age,hypertension and diabetes,lager size of polypus,rectum polypus,juvenile polyps and tubular adenoma with high grade intraepithelial neoplasia were risk factor for delayed bleeding.In the event of delayed bleeding,different choice of purse suture,hemostatic clip,electrocautery or injection hemostasis according to different wounds can achieve the desired effect.

Clinical effect of second-look endoscopy in patients with early gastric cancer after ESD / 中国内镜杂志

Objective To evaluate whether second-look endoscopy could prevent endoscopic submucosal dissection complicated with delayed bleeding and to clarify what kind of lesions that need second-look endoscopy. Methods 98 patients with early gastric cancer by histological diagnosis from Oct. 2014 to Sep. 2016 were included in this study. Mucosal damage related bleeding within 24 h after ESD was considered delayed bleeding. Clinical data of patients, lesions, surgical factors, and the incidences of bleeding before and after the second endoscopy examination were retrospectively studied. Results The en bloc resection rate of 98 patients was 100.0%, and all incisal margins were negative. No gastrointestinal perforation, death or severe complications occurred. 5.1%of the patients (5/98) occurred delayed bleeding after ESD and had been successfully stopped in a second-look endoscopy, and none received operations. No delayed bleeding occurred in follow-ups of patients with negative delayed bleeding. 40.0 % of the patients (2/5) with delayed bleeding received blood transfusion. The median time of second-look endoscopy after ESD was the second day after operation (1 ~ 3 d). The median bleeding time of 5 patients with delayed bleeding after ESD was the first day after operation (1 ~ 10 d). The median duration of surgery was 75 min (60~150 min), and the prediction success rate was 94.9 %. The results of univariate analysis showed that age [(69.6 ± 7.9) vs (60.9 ± 10.1) years old, P = 0.003] and operation time [(90.0 ± 41.0) vs (66.0 ± 42.0) min, P = 0.000] were both the risk factors in delayed bleeding and non-bleeding group. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that operation time (OR

Clinical analysis of delayed papillary hemorrhage after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography / 中华消化内镜杂志

Objective To evaluate the clinical feature and potential reasons of delayed papillary bleeding after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP),and search for effective hemostasis and strategies.Methods A total of 76 patients with post-ERCP bleeding underwent endoscopic treatment in the Eastern Hepatobiliary Hospital from August 2000 to August 2016.Clinical data,haemostatic methods,and treatment outcomes of patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results Delayed papillary hemorrhage mostly occmred within 48 hours after ERCP (67.2％,45/67),with main manifestations of hematemesis,bloody stool,and bile.The lowest incidence of delayed bleeding was detected after endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD,0.1％),which was followed by papillary precut (0.6％) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST,0.9％).And EST+EPBD had the highest incidence of delayed post-ERCP papillary hemorrhage (2.4％).The most bleeding site was the left side of the incision (67.1％,51/76).Emergent endoscopic interventions were applied in all patients with success of hemostasis in 71 out of 76 (93.4％),and injection with diluted epinephrine,electric coagulation,hemoclipping,and metal stenting were used sequentially for hemostasis.Among the 71 successful cases of hemostasis,66 patients were performed endoscopic hemostasis for once,4 patients took twice,and 1 case took thrice.Endoscopic hemoclipping was the most commonly used method with successful rate of 76.9％ (50/65) for hemostasis.Conclusion Precut papillotomy is safe and effective,and its complication occurrence rate is similar to that of EST.Hemorrhage should be prevented and timely dealt with in small/median EST and/or EPBD.Once hemorrhage is suspected clinically,endoscopic inventions should be applied timely,and hemoclipping is a safe and effective method.

Clinical efficacy of endoscopic resection of duodenal papilla tumor (with video) / 中华消化内镜杂志

Objective To evaluate therapeutic effect of endoscopy on duodenal papilla tumor. Methods Clinical data of patients who underwent the endoscopic duodenal papilla tumor resection in Zhongshan Hospital were retrospectively studied from April 2007 to May 2014. Results A total of 21 patients underwent 28 procedures. Postoperative biliary stent were retained in 6 cases (6/28) , with no perforation or postoperative pancreatitis. Delayed bleeding occurred in 7 cases (7/28) and controlled by endoscopic hemostasis, and no death occurred. Mean follow-up was 31. 5 months. There were 6 recurrent cases, and mean recurrence time was 14. 1 months. All these recurrent cases are treated by endoscopy treatments or surgery. Conclusion Endoscopic treatment of duodenal papilla tumor is safe, effective and minimally invasive, but the occurrence of delayed bleeding is worth concern.

Is a Second-Look Endoscopy Necessary after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Gastric Neoplasm?

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Second-look endoscopy is performed to check for the possibility of post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) bleeding and to perform prophylactic hemostasis in most hospitals; however, there is little evidence about the efficacy of second-look endoscopy. We investigated whether second-look endoscopy after ESD is useful in the prevention of post-ESD bleeding. METHODS: A total of 550 lesions with gastric epithelial neoplasms in 502 patients (372 men and 130 women) were treated with ESD between August 18, 2009 and August 18, 2010. After the exclusion of three lesions of post-ESD bleeding within 24 hours, 547 lesions (335 early gastric cancers and 212 gastric adenomas) were included for the final analysis. RESULTS: The occurrence rate of delayed post-ESD bleeding was not significantly different between the second-look group and the no second-look group (1% vs 2.5%, p>0.05). The only predictor of delayed bleeding was tumor size, regardless of second-look endoscopy after ESD (22.8+/-9.87 vs 15.1+/-10.47, p<0.05). There was no difference between the prophylactic hemostasis and nonprophylactic hemostasis groups, including the occurrence rate of delayed bleeding. In the second-look group with prophylactic hemostasis, the hospital stay was more prolonged than in the second-look group without prophylactic hemostasis, but there was no significant difference (p=0.08). CONCLUSIONS: Second-look endoscopy to prevent delayed bleeding after ESD provides no significant medical benefits.

Second-Look Endoscopy after Gastric Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Reducing Delayed Postoperative Bleeding

BACKGROUND/AIMS: This stuy evaluated the role of a second-look endoscopy after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection in patients without signs of bleeding. METHODS: Between March 2011 and March 2012, 407 patients with gastric neoplasms who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection for 445 lesions were retrospectively reviewed. After the patients had undergone endoscopic submucosal dissection, they were allocated to two groups (with or without second-look endoscopy) according to the following endoscopy. The postoperative bleeding risk of the lesions was not considered when allocating the patients. RESULTS: The delayed postoperative bleeding rates did not differ between the two groups (with vs without second-look endoscopy, 3.0% vs 2.1%; p=0.546). However, a tumor in the upper-third of the stomach (odds ratio [OR], 5.353; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.075 to 26.650) and specimen size greater than 40 mm (OR, 4.794; 95% CI, 1.307 to 17.588) were both independent risk factors for delayed postoperative bleeding. Additionally, second-look endoscopy was not related to reduced delayed postoperative bleeding. However, delayed postoperative bleeding in the patients who did not undergo a second-look endoscopy occurred significantly earlier than that in patients who underwent a second-look endoscopy (4.5 and 14.0 days, respectively, p=0.022). CONCLUSIONS: A routine second-look endoscopy after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection is not necessary for all patients.

Acute Expanding Venous Extradural Hematoma: Pitfall of Early Brain CT Scan

A case of a acute expanding venous extradural hematoma was treated. Initial CT scan was favorable, but delayed bleeding & its expansion was developed. The bleeding points were left transverse sinus and superior petrosal sinus. Serial neurologic examination & serial CT scan in patients with head injuries are recommended.

Delayed Post-traumatic Extradural Hematomas: Delayed Bleeding & Delayed Expansion

Delayed traumatic extradural hematoma is a new pathological dimension. Thirteen patients with delayed traumatic extradural hematoma were seen 70 treated cases of extradural hematomas for a frequency of 18.6%. The hematomas were insignificant or not present on the initial CT scanning. All patients had a skull fracture at the site of delayed extradural hematoma formation. Ten hematomas were surgically evacuated and three were reabsorbed spontaneously. Repeated CT scanning was performed if the patient has any new focal neurological deficits or clinical status was not improved despite of minimal extradural hematoma after head injury. Delayed extradural hematoma were classified into two groups based on the presence of hematoma in initial CT scan : delayed bleeding type(newly formed xtradural hematoma/4 cases : 5.7%) & delayed expansion type(enlargement of initial thin hematoma/9 cases : 12.6%).
