Here we report the case of a 61 year-old-woman who underwent total gastrectomy for cardial adenocarcinoma. Few days later, she developed anastomotic dehiscence, endoscopically treated with stent-in-stent technique. Implementation of a partially covered self-expandable-metal-stent (SEMS) … Continue reading Tissue ablation for metal stent ingrowth with APC 3 using FiAPC® probe 2200A in forcedAPC mode
EMR for lateral spreading tumors (LST) with HybridAPC margin ablation
In a piecemeal EMR, neoplastic tissue may remain at the edge or surface of the resection, which can be the cause of a local recurrence. Thermal ablation after EMR can reduce the recurrence rate by … Continue reading EMR for lateral spreading tumors (LST) with HybridAPC margin ablation
Eradication of residual Barrett´s mucosa with HybridAPC
Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC) has been used for thermal ablation of Barrett’s esophagus for years. The flexible HybridAPC probe from Erbe combines now APC with waterjet elevation to create a submucosal protective layer. HybridAPC enables … Continue reading Eradication of residual Barrett´s mucosa with HybridAPC
