This book was released on 2021 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical trials show that per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) has similar efficacy to pneumatic dilation (PD) and laparoscopic heller myotomy (LHM) for relief of achalasia symptoms. We describe the diffusion of POEM into clinical practice and evaluate unanswered questions regarding safety and the burden of healthcare utilization after POEM. Retrospective cohort study of achalasia patients (18-63 years) initially treated with POEM, PD, or LHM (2010-2017) using the MarketScan® claims databases. Administrative codes used to measure POEM were validated in an institutional cohort using gold standard chart abstraction. We compared frequencies of perforation requiring intervention and healthcare utilization in the year following intervention. Among 1,921 patients (mean age 46 years, 49% women), 75.7%, 16.9%, and 7.4% underwent LHM, PD, and POEM, respectively. POEM increased from 1.1% of cases in 2010 to 18.9% in 2017. Perforation occurred in 0.3% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.1-0.7%) undergoing LHM vs 0.9% (95%CI 0.2-2.7%) undergoing PD vs 0.0% (95%CI 0.0-2.6%) undergoing POEM. After POEM, 88.0% (95%CI 82.6-93.4) of patients underwent achalasia-related diagnostic testing, compared to 74.3% (95%CI 72.1-76.5) and 78.5% (95%CI 74.0-83.0) after LHM and PD, respectively. Reintervention was performed in 16.9% (95%CI 11.1-24.1) of patients after POEM, compared to 7.8% (95%CI 6.4-9.3) and 45.5% (95%CI 40.0-51.1) after LHM and PD, respectively. Utilization of POEM has increased over time in the US, and comprised nearly a fifth of definitive procedures performed for achalasia in 2017. Perforation requiring intervention was rare for all procedures. POEM was associated with greater post-procedure diagnostic testing and reintervention compared to LHM. Compared to PD, POEM was associated with greater post-procedure diagnostic testing but less frequent reintervention.

The purpose of this book is to provide clinicians with an understanding of their roles and that of other disciplines for the treatment of acute and emergent surgical diseases. It is also designed to give a clear pathway for using multiple disciplines to manage these diseases. The text details over 20 problems routinely seen in clinical practice and approaches the disease from the perspective of experts within the different specialties. It provides a comprehensive, evidenced-based overview and the most up-to-date technology available in clinical practice. An emphasis on new, less invasive techniques that may have a broader range of indications in the future is also included. Ultimately the reader will have a better understanding of these acute problems, the other specialties they work with, and when to integrate these other specialties when they encounter these urgent clinical scenarios.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endoscopic techniques are widely used for screening, diagnostic and therapeutic maneuvers in all groups of patients and for a large spectrum of complaints. The availability of basic iterations of endoscopic techniques made screening programs for various diseases viable in most parts of the world, while the advent of modern techniques opens new perspectives for rapid and correct diagnosis. Going beyond normal human vision, innovative techniques opened the prospect of in-situ pathology. Endoscopic ultrasound has made incredible progress in recent years. Reaching the smaller orifices by endoscopy was a major step forward in the surveillance of previously inaccessible lesions. Investigatory techniques were complemented by advances in therapy, with novel applications in many major areas of medicine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third triennial congress of the International Society for Diseases of the Esophagus (lSDE) was held in Munich in September 1986 under the presidency of J. Rudiger Siewert. The very well organized and epoch-making meeting was part of the International Esophageal Week and was held in conjunction with the International Conference of Esophageal Diseases, the European Study Group of Diseases of the Esophagus (GEEMO), and International Organization for Statistical Studies of Esophageal Diseases (OESO). I am very pleased that it has been possible to publish the proceedings of the congress so rapidly. The problems associated with diseases of the esophagus are multifaceted, varying considerably according to locality; their study thus neces sitates a large international forum, which is one of the founding aims of the ISDE. We hope that this volume, by virtue of the in-depth and up-dated reports it contains, can playa role in advancing the work being done in this field. Finally I should like to express my heartfelt appreciation to Professor Siewert and Dr. Holscher for their contribution toward the success of the congress. Kiyoshi Inokuchi, M.D., F.A.C.S. President of the ISDE Preface The scientific knowledge about esophageal diseases and their treatment has rapidly developed and increased within the last 10 years. The present book reproduces for 1987 the topical state of the art about pathology, pathophysiology, diagnostic, and therapy of benign and malignant diseases of the esophagus.
