Cold snare polypectomy (CSP) is the treatment of choice for polyps less than 10 mm in size and sessile serrated lesions.1 We present a 66-year-old woman with Crohn’s colitis. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was in complete clinico-endoscopic remission and colonoscopy was performed for dysplasia surveillance. …

A Rwandan man in his 40s underwent an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy for evaluation of solid-food dysphagia. Of note, the patient also reported a long-standing history of anaemia, which was originally diagnosed in 2000. He had required four transfusions since and noted that he had previously been prescribed tot’hema syrup (a form of iron supplementation) but was no longer taking it. Laboratory tests around the time of endoscopy showed microcytic anaemia (haemoglobin 99.1 g/L, median corpuscular volume 61.84 fL) with an elevated reticulocyte count (91×109/L). Further labs showed low serum iron (28 mcg/dL) and ferritin (20.5 ng/mL). The patient denied ever experiencing melena or haematochezia. Endoscopic examination revealed a partially obstructing Schatzki’s ring as the explanation for his dysphagia and this was treated with balloon dilation. The endoscopy also revealed numerous blue-violet vascular-appearing …

Concern regarding the environmental impact of healthcare provision is now accompanied by a legal commitment for the NHS to align itself with national emissions targets. Meanwhile, the academic literature increasingly features environmental impact assessments focused on healthcare products, processes and systems. However, the current evidence base contains significant methodological heterogeneity, and the healthcare context demands that particular considerations are made when interpreting the findings from these studies. In this article, we consider the role environmental accounting methodologies can play in the effort to achieve environmental sustainability in healthcare; their utility and limitations.

A previously well 43-year-old men was admitted with right upper quadrant and epigastric pain, fever and vomiting. His medical history included asymptomatic cholestatic liver function tests for which serial ultrasound (US), magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography, fibroscan and a US-guided liver biopsy had proved unremarkable several years prior to this presentation. Physical examination revealed diffuse abdominal tenderness worst in the right upper quadrant and epigastric region. Laboratory investigations demonstrated raised inflammatory markers and deranged liver function but were otherwise unremarkable. CT of the abdomen and pelvis showed extensive pancreatic stranding and fluid most prominent around the tail and body of the pancreas. The patient had no history of gallstones, alcohol misuse, new medications, family history or hypercholesterolemia. The patient was managed conservatively but subsequently deteriorated with features of abdominal sepsis. Serial …

Despite contributing minimally to global greenhouse gas emissions,1 Pacific Island nations are at the frontline of climate change impacts.2 Their heightened vulnerability stems from their geographical dispersal across the expansive Pacific Ocean, which leaves them encircled by vast bodies of water. This unique geological position subjects these island communities to climate-related threats, including rising sea levels, coastline erosion, ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, food and water insecurities and extreme weather events, jeopardising their existence and way of life. Oceania comprises Australia, New Zealand and the PICs and territories (see figure 1). The three ethnogeographic regions (Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia) form the PICs. Of these, 13 are sovereign nations, while others maintain unique political associations with France, New Zealand and the USA. Figure 1 Map of Oceania (Source: map-oceania-05.gif (720×410) (globalsecurity.org). The self-governing nations have almost 13 million people but only about 2.7 million live on the smaller islands.3 They are classified as low-income and middle-income countries.3 These include the Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati, the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI), Nauru, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, the Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu. Each country boasts a unique blend of culture, tradition, history and political systems. As Earth becomes warmer due to climate change, sea levels rise via two main mechanisms: expanding heated seawater and melting ice sheets and glaciers.2 Because some PICs are low-lying atolls, they face the potential existential threat of vanishing underwater with rising sea levels. The countries with the most significant threat of ‘sinking’ first are Tuvalu, Kiribati and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Their highest elevations vary from atoll to atoll, but, generally, they are mostly under 5 m above sea level. The only bridge, which is the highest peak (<10 m above sea level) in Majuro, Republic of the …

A 44-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a 2-week history of abdominal distention, nausea and recurrent vomiting. The past medical history disclosed peptic ulcer-related duodenal stenosis at the bulb for 3 years and cholecystolithiasis for 20 years. On examination, the abdomen was distended and soft with no tenderness. Blood laboratory tests showed leucocytosis (12.10×109/L, reference 3.5–9.5), mild hypokalaemia (3.25 mmol/L, reference 3.5–5.3), normal C reactive protein, liver function, renal function and coagulation function.
