Other names: Transmural burn syndrome, Postpolypectomy syndrome Coagulation syndrome: Specialty: Gastroenterology: Symptoms: Abdominal pain, fever: Usual onset: 1-5 days after polypectomy: Causes: Polypectomy during colonoscopy: Risk factors: Hypertension, right colon polypectomy, large polyp size (>2 cm), non-polypoid lesions (laterally ...
Traditional serrated adenoma seen under microscopy with H&E stain, showing serrated crypts. SPS may occur with one of two phenotypes: distal or proximal. [6] The distal phenotype may demonstrate numerous small polyps in the distal colon and rectum, whereas the proximal phenotype may be characterized by relatively fewer, but larger polyps in the proximal colon (cecum, ascending colon, etc.). [6]
Colonoscopies are often used to diagnose colon polyp and colon cancer, [15] but are also frequently used to diagnose inflammatory bowel disease. [16] [17] Another common indication for colonoscopy is the investigation of iron deficiency with or without anaemia. The examination of the colon, to rule out a lesion contributing to blood loss, along ...
Left posterior oblique (LPO) position is to view the sigmoid colon without overlapping of other bowels. [1] Hampton's view (prone caudal view) of rectosigmoid colon is taken when the subject is in prone position with the X-ray tube tilted towards the feet at 30 degrees. This is to separate out the loops of sigmoid colon. [2] Other views include ...
The serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) is a relatively rare condition characterized by multiple and/or large serrated polyps of the colon. Serrated polyps include SSLs, hyperplastic polyps, and traditional serrated adenomas. Diagnosis of this disease is made by the fulfillment of any of the World Health Organization's (WHO) clinical criteria. [4]
Endoclips have found a primary application in hemostasis (or the stopping of bleeding) during endoscopy of the upper (through gastroscopy) or lower (through colonoscopy) gastrointestinal tract. [1] Many bleeding lesions have been successfully clipped, including bleeding peptic ulcers , [ 4 ] Mallory-Weiss tears of the esophagus , [ 8 ...
Tumor cells describe irregular tubular structures, harboring pluristratification, multiple lumens, reduced stroma ("back to back" aspect). Sometimes, tumor cells are discohesive and secrete mucus, which invades the interstitium producing large pools of mucus. This occurs in mucinous adenocarcinoma, in which cells are poorly differentiated.
IBD also occurs in dogs and is thought to arise from a combination of host genetics, intestinal microenvironment, environmental components and the immune system. There is an ongoing discussion, however, that the term "chronic enteropathy" might be better to use than "inflammatory bowel disease" in dogs because it differs from IBD in humans in ...
