Endosonographically guided gallbladder drainage to treat neoplastic jaundice after Roux-en-Y gastric resection

Endoscopy (2017)

Paolo Cecinato M. Cavina Giuliana Sereni F. Decembrino V. Iori

A 81-year-old man, who had undergone subtotal gastric resection with Roux-en-Y anastomosis for gastric adenocarcinoma 2 years earlier, was admitted to our hospital for obstructive jaundice. Abdominal computed tomography showed a solid mass (30 × 30 mm) at the pancreatic head, involving the common bile duct and the duodenum and suspicious for portal vein and mesenteric axis invasion ([Fig. 1]). An endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided fine needle aspiration was performed and a diagnosis of metastasis of gastric adenocarcinoma was made.

Gastric cancer in a pregnant woman presenting with low back pain and bilateral erythematous breast hypertrophy mimicking primary inflammatory breast carcinoma.

Anticancer Research (2011)

Vincenzo Dario Mandato Debora Pirillo Maria Carolina Gelli M. Cavina Giovanni Battista La Sala

This report describes the first case of a pregnant woman presenting low-back pain and breast pain associated with bilateral erythematous breast hypertrophy, proving to be the result of metastatic disease from a gastric carcinoma. A 30-year-old pregnant woman was admitted complaining of persistent severe low back pain, breast pain and concomitant bilateral erythematous breast hypertrophy, mimicking primary inflammatory breast carcinoma. During the caesarean section, widespread disease was found and finally metastatic gastric cancer was detected. Pregnant women with gastric cancer may present symptoms that are considered common during pregnancy. Common symptoms that present warning characteristics, such as the persistent severe pain observed in the presented case, should be carefully investigated as they may be the only warning signs and symptoms of rare ominous conditions such as gastric cancer.

Massive GI bleeding due to accidental ASA inhalation

Platelets (2009)

Marcello Bianchini M. Cavina V. Boarino B. Begliomini Nicola De Maria

This report describes a 38-year-old man admitted to hospital for a massive rectal bleeding and syncope. He was known to have idiopathic thrombocytopenia but he had never complained of bleeding until he was admitted to hospital with uncontrolled hemorrhage. Upper and lower endoscopic examination, performed 6 hours after occurrence of bleeding, were negative for ulcers or other bleeding lesions. However, capsule endoscopy did detect diffuse areas of petechial hemorrhage and erosions in the small bowel. Thromboelastography performed on the day of admission showed a marked decrease in platelet aggregation rate, that normalized two days after. The patient recovered with conservative treatment only. Thorough questioning did not evidence relevant events apart from inhalation of a massive quantity of acetylsalicylic acid: the patient, working as a farmer, had prepared, without protection, fodder for the animals containing a great amount of acetylsalicylic acid. Bleeding had started few hours thereafter. After recovery, bleeding did not recur despite persistent thrombocytopenia.

High rate of Helicobacter pylori eradication with sequential therapy in elderly patients with peptic ulcer: a prospective controlled study

Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics (2005)

Angelo Zullo Luigi Gatta Vincenzo De Francesco Cesare Hassan Chiara Ricci

Summary Background : Helicobacter pylori eradication rates with triple therapies are decreasing, and few data in elderly patients are available. A 10‐day sequential regimen succeeded in curing such H. pylori infection in unselected patients. Aim : To compare this sequential regimen and the standard triple therapy for H. pylori eradication in geriatric patients with peptic ulcer. Methods : Overall, 179 H. pylori ‐infected patients with peptic ulcer were enrolled (mean age: 69.5 years; range: 65–83). Patients were randomized to 10‐day sequential therapy (rabeprazole 20 mg b.d. plus amoxicillin 1 g b.d. for the first 5 days, followed by rabeprazole 20 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg and tinidazole 500 mg, all b.d., for the remaining 5 days) or standard 7‐day triple regimen (rabeprazole 20 mg, clarithromycin 500 mg and amoxicillin 1 g, all b.d.). Helicobacter pylori status was assessed by histology and rapid urease test at baseline and 4–6 weeks after completion of treatment. Results : The sequential regimen achieved eradication rates significantly higher in comparison with the standard regimen at both intention‐to‐treat (94% vs. 80%; P = 0.008) and per‐protocol (97% vs. 83%; P = 0.006) analyses. In both treatment groups, compliance to the therapy was high (>95%), and the rate of mild side‐effects was similarly low (<12%). At repeated upper endoscopy, peptic ulcer lesions were healed in 97% patients, without a statistically significant difference between the sequential regimen and the standard triple therapy. Conclusions : In elderly patients with peptic ulcer disease, the 10‐day sequential treatment regimen achieved significantly higher eradication rates in comparison with standard triple therapy.

FUSION RADIOLOGY FOR ENDOSCOPIC DRAINAGE OF PANCREATIC FLUID COLLECTIONS: AN INNOVATIVE SINGLE CENTER EXPERIENCE

Endoscopy (2020)

Romano Sassatelli S. Grillo Paolo Cecinato V. Iori Giulia Besutti

Aims Virtual reality obtained by the fusion of images can be applied to several fields of medicine leading to the so-called “augmented reality”. Since 2017 we have been using a new digital angiographic system (Discovery IGS 40, General Electrics) in biliopancreatic endoscopy, where fluoroscopy can be fused with pre-procedural CT o MRI. Specifically the present study aimed at verifying the advantages that fusion imaging could bring in EUS-guided drainage of post-pancreatitis fluid collection (PFC), i.e. pseudocysts or WON, in terms of more appropriate visualization, drainage approach and time needed for resolution.
