Endoscopic mucosal resection for high-grade dysplasia and intramucosal carcinoma in Barrett's esophagus: An Italian experience

         

摘要

AIM: To evaluate endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR)in patients with high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and/or intramucosal cancer (IMC) in Barrett's esophagus (BE).METHODS: Between June 2000 and December 2003,39 consecutive patients with HGD (35) and/or IMC (4)underwent EMR. BE >30 mm was present in 27 patients.In three patients with short segment BE (25.0%), HGDwas detected in a normal appearing BE. Lesions had a mean diameter of 14.8±10.3 mm. Mucosal resection was carried out using the cap method.RESULTS: The average size of resections was 19.7±9.4×14.6±8.2 mm. Histopathologic assessment postresection revealed 5 low-grade dysplasia (LGD) (12.8%),27 HGD (69.2%), 2 IMC (5.1%), and 5 SMC (-12.8%).EMR changed the pre-treatment diagnosis in 10 patients (25.6%). Three patients with SMC underwehtsurgery.Histology of the surgical specimen revealed 1 T0N0 and 2 T1N0 lesions. The remaining two patients were cancer free at 32.5 and 45.6 mo, respectively. A metachronous lesion was detected after 25 mo in one patient with HGD. Intra-procedural bleeding, controlled at endoscopy,occurred in four patients (10.3%). After a median followup of 34.9 mo, all patients remained in remission.CONCLUSION: In the medium term, EMR is effective and safe to treat HGD and/or IMC within BE and is a valuable staging method. It could become an alternative to surgery.
