Ampullary tumors originate from the ampulla of Vater and are often discovered incidentally during an upper endoscopy. These tumors usually occur sporadically and may be benign or malignant in nature. Tumor growth clinically presents with cholestasis, pancreatitis, and bleeding. Patients with ampullary adenomas are often asymptomatic; however, removal of these lesions is recommended in view of their malignant potential. Following advances in endoscopic techniques and the accumulation of experience, considering high recurrence, mortality, and morbidity rates associated with surgery, endoscopic papillectomy may be useful as first-line treatment for adenomatous lesions with ambiguous malignant changes or focal intraepithelial carcinoma. Although it is relatively safe and easy to perform, the operation is a high-level procedure that may be associated with serious complications. It should be performed by an experienced endoscopist at a well-equipped hospital/center with emergency facilities and support personnel. Accurate resection is associated with high treatment success rates. Most complications are mild and can be treated medically. Pancreatitis is the most common complication, and pancreatic duct stenting is useful for prophylaxis. Recurrence may occur, and is more frequently observed during segmental resection; therefore, close periodic follow-up is essential. Although there are no unified indications or guidelines for endoscopic papillectomy, endoscopic papillectomy may be safe and effective for management of ampullary adenomas. Careful patient selection and follow-up are mandatory.

Disorders of duodenal anatomy are rare and originate during the early embryological development of the foregut. These disorders are associated with significant morbidity in children; however, they may remain undetected during childhood and present during adolescence or adulthood. Duodenal atresia or web, annular pancreas, Ladd’s bands associated with midgut volvulus, and preduodenal portal vein represent duodenal anomalies that may cause partial or complete duodenal obstruction. Duodenal atresia and web occur secondary to incomplete recanalization of the duodenal lumen during the 8th to 10th week of gestation. These anomalies usually require surgical correction; however, the role of endoscopic interventions using innovative equipment is being investigated. Duodenal duplication cysts are an extremely rare congenital anomaly. Most abut the second or third portion of the duodenum and histologically show the normal duodenal wall layers. These lesions clinically present with abdominal pain, weight loss, vomiting, pancreatitis, or features of biliary tract obstruction. Imaging studies including transabdominal ultrasonography, computed tomography, MRI, and endoscopic ultrasonography are useful for detection of the cystic structure. Surgery is the conventional therapeutic modality used for management of duodenal duplication cysts; however, marsupialization (endoscopic intervention to establish communication between the cyst cavity and the duodenal lumen to facilitate duodenal drainage of cystic contents) is increasingly being performed in clinical practice. Duodenum inversum and duodenal diverticula are congenital duodenal disorders that require endoscopic or surgical management in symptomatic patients.

Autoimmune gastritis (AIG) is a type of atrophic gastritis characterized by destruction of parietal cells in the gastric fundus and body. These changes may be attributable to immune-mediated chronic inflammatory responses. AIG is characterized by extensive atrophy of the gastric body; therefore, endoscopic findings offer useful diagnostic clues. AIG is diagnosed based on serological and histopathological evaluation of endoscopic biopsy specimens; however, this condition may be accompanied by autoimmune diseases including autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD), and the opposite can be suspected. Diagnostic delays and misdiagnosis are common in patients with AIG owing to the nonspecific clinical presentation and accompanying autoimmune diseases. Additionally, confirmation of AIG based on serological atrophy or endoscopic findings is challenging in cases of active Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) infection. We report a case of Graves’ disease (an ATD) in a patient diagnosed with AIG and concomitant H. pylori -induced gastritis based on the rapid urease and serological test results and endoscopic biopsy findings.

Plummer-Vinson syndrome (PVS) is a complex condition characterized by a classic triad of dysphagia, iron deficiency anemia (IDA), and an upper esophageal web. Dysphagia represents the most important symptom of PVS and is usually observed with solid food. Therapeutic options for dysphagia include iron supplementation and/or endoscopic balloon dilation based on symptom severity. PVS can be treated easily and regular iron replacement therapy can prevent disease progression. We describe a 63-year-old woman diagnosed with a simple esophageal web, who underwent esophageal dilation 13 years prior to presentation. However, she revisited our center because of dysphagia secondary to an esophageal foreign body, and endoscopy revealed esophageal web relapse. Investigations revealed IDA, and the patient was eventually diagnosed as PVS. She underwent successful endoscopic dilation and denied recurrent dysphagia after continuous intake of iron tablets. We recommend continuous management of IDA, as well as endoscopic dilation and a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach to ensure favorable prognosis in PVS patients.

普卢默-文森综合征(PVS)是一种复杂的疾病,以典型的吞咽困难、缺铁性贫血(IDA)和上食管网为特征。吞咽困难是PVS最重要的症状,通常在固体食物时观察到。吞咽困难的治疗选择包括根据症状严重程度补充铁和/或内镜球囊扩张。PVS可以很容易地治疗,定期的铁替代治疗可以预防疾病进展。我们描述了一位63岁的女性,她被诊断为简单的食管网,13年前接受了食管扩张。然而,由于食道异物继发的吞咽困难,她再次来到我们的中心,内窥镜检查显示食道网复发。调查显示IDA,患者最终被诊断为PVS。她进行了成功的内镜扩张,并否认持续摄入铁片后再次出现吞咽困难。我们推荐持续治疗IDA,内镜扩张和多学科治疗方法,以确保PVS患者的良好预后。(韩国J Helicobacter Up Gastrointest, 2022;22:303-307)

Background/Aims: Histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RA) are used to treat acid-related disorders and functional dyspepsia. In contrast to other H2RAs, nizatidine promotes gastric emptying (GE). We investigated the effects of nizatidine and famotidine on intragastric pH and the GE rate in rats exposed to stress. Materials and Methods: We used 8-week-old male Wistar rats. Based on administration of water or drugs after an overnight fast, the animals were categorized into the nonstress-water, stress-water, stress-nizatidine, stress-famotidine, and stress-nizatidine with mosapride groups. The rats had access to pre-weighed food for 10 minutes, and those in the stress groups were exposed to 1 hour of restraint stress. Intragastric pH was measured under isoflurane anesthesia, and the GE rate was measured after the rats were sacrificed. Results: The GE rate was significantly lower in the stress-water and stress-famotidine groups than in the nonstress-water group. However, GE in the stress-nizatidine and stress-nizatidine with mosapride group did not significantly differ from that in the nonstress-water group. The GE rate was significantly higher in the stress-nizatidine with mosapride than in the stress-famotidine group. Intragastric pH was significantly higher in the stress-nizatidine and stress-famotidine groups than in the stress-water group. Nonetheless, there was no significant difference in pH between the stress-nizatidine and stress-famotidine groups. The intragastric pH was slightly but significantly higher in the stress-nizatidine with mosapride group than in the stress-nizatidine and stress-famotidine groups. Conclusions: In contrast to famotidine, nizatidine prevents stress-induced GE delay, which suggests that nizatidine is superior to other H2RAs for treatment of functional dyspepsia associated with delayed GE.

背景/目的:组胺-2受体拮抗剂(H2RA)用于治疗酸相关疾病和功能性消化不良。与其他H2RAs相比,尼扎替丁促进胃排空(GE)。研究了尼扎替丁和法莫替丁对应激大鼠胃内pH值和GE率的影响。材料与方法:选用8周龄雄性Wistar大鼠。根据禁食后水或药物的给药情况,将小鼠分为非应激水组、应激水组、应激尼扎替丁组、应激法莫替丁组和应激尼扎替丁加莫沙必利组。大鼠获得预先称重的食物10分钟,应激组的大鼠暴露在1小时的约束压力下。异氟醚麻醉下测定大鼠胃内pH值,处死后测定GE率。结果:应激-水组和应激-法莫替丁组的GE率明显低于非应激-水组。而胁迫-尼扎替丁组和胁迫-尼扎替丁加莫沙必利组的GE与非胁迫-水组无显著差异。莫沙必利加尼扎替丁组的GE率明显高于法莫替丁组。应激-尼扎替丁组和应激-法莫替丁组胃内pH值显著高于应激-水组。然而,胁迫-尼扎替丁组和胁迫-法莫替丁组之间的pH值没有显著差异。莫沙必利加尼扎替丁组胃内pH值略高于尼扎替丁和法莫替丁组。结论:与法莫替丁相比,尼扎替丁可以预防应激性GE延迟,这表明尼扎替丁在治疗延迟GE相关的功能性消化不良方面优于其他H2RAs。(韩国J Helicobacter Up Gastrointest, 2022;22: 288-294)
