  • Anal Cancer Anal Cancer, Also Known As Anal Carcinoma, Is Cancer of the Anus
    Anal Cancer Anal cancer, also known as anal carcinoma, is cancer of the anus. To help diagnose this condition, your doctor will perform a digital rectal exam and anoscopy. An MRI, CT, PET/CT, or an endoanal ultrasound may also be ordered by your doctor. Depending on the size, location, and extent of the cancer, treatments may include surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. What is anal cancer? Anal cancer is a cancer that begins in the anus, the opening at the end of the gastrointestinal tract through which stool, or solid waste, leaves the body. The anus begins at the bottom of the rectum, which is the last part of the large intestine (also called the colon). Anal cancer usually affects adults over age 60 and women more often than men. More than 8,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with anal cancer each year. Anal cancer symptoms may include changes in bowel habits and changes in and around the anal area, including: bleeding and itching pain or pressure unusual discharge a lump or mass fecal incontinence fistulae. Some patients with anal cancers do not experience any symptoms. Some non-cancerous conditions, such as hemorrhoids and fissures, may cause similar symptoms. How is anal cancer diagnosed and evaluated? To diagnose the cause of symptoms, your doctor may perform: Digital rectal examination (DRE): Digital Rectal Exam (DRE): This test examines the lower rectum and the prostate gland in males to check for abnormalities in size, shape or texture. The term "digital" refers to the clinician's use of a gloved lubricated finger to conduct the exam.

  • Is Digital Rectal Exam Reliable in Grading Anal Sphincter Defects?
    DOI: 10.1590/S0004-28032016000400006 ARQGA/1864 IS DIGITAL RECTAL EXAM RELIABLE IN GRADING ANAL SPHINCTER DEFECTS? Marcelo de Melo Andrade COURA, Silvana Marques SILVA, Romulo Medeiros de ALMEIDA, Miles Castedo FORREST and João Batista SOUSA Received 7/7/2015 Accepted 14/8/2015 ABSTRACT - Background - Anal sphincter tone is routinely assessed by digital rectal examination in patients with fecal incontinence, although its accuracy in detecting sphincter defects or separating competent from incompetent muscles has not been established. Objective - In this setting, we aimed to evaluate the accuracy of digital rectal examination in grading anal defects in order to sepa- rate small from extensive cases as depicted on 3D endoanal ultrasound, using a scoring sphincter defect and correlate anal tone to anal pressures. Methods - Women with fecal incontinence were divided into two groups: small or extensive defects according to the ultrasound scoring system. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of digital rectal examination in grading global and external sphincter defects were calculated. Anal tone at digital rectal examination was compared to resting and incremen- tal pressures. Results - A cohort of 76 consecutive incontinent women were enrolled. The median Wexner score was 9. Sixty-eight showed sphincter defects on 3D endoanal ultrasound. Anal tone at digital rectal examination was considered abnormal in 62 cases. Abnormal digital rectal examination showed a sensitivity of 90%, specificity of 27.78% in distinguishing small from extensive defects of both sphincters. Five out of eight women with no sphincter defects had only abnormal squeeze tone at digital rectal examination. Abnormal squeeze tone at digital rectal examination had a sensitivity of 65.31% in distinguishing small from extensive external anal sphincter defects.

  • Biodegradable Esophageal Stents for the Treatment of Refractory Benign Esophageal Strictures
    INVITED REVIEW Annals of Gastroenterology (2020) 33, 1-8 Biodegradable esophageal stents for the treatment of refractory benign esophageal strictures Paraskevas Gkolfakisa, Peter D. Siersemab, Georgios Tziatziosc, Konstantinos Triantafyllouc, Ioannis S. Papanikolaouc Erasme University Hospital, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels, Belgium; Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, The Netherlands; “Attikon” University General Hospital, Medical School, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece Abstract This review attempts to present the available evidence regarding the use of biodegradable stents in refractory benign esophageal strictures, especially highlighting their impact on clinical success and complications. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, using the terms “biodegradable” and “benign”; evidence from cohort and comparative studies, as well as data from one pooled analysis and one meta-analysis are presented. In summary, the results from these studies indicate that the effectiveness of biodegradable stents ranges from more than one third to a quarter of cases, fairly similar to other types of stents used for the same indication. However, their implementation may reduce the need for re-intervention during follow up. Biodegradable stents also seem to reduce the need for additional types of endoscopic therapeutic modalities, mostly balloon or bougie dilations. Results from pooled data are consistent, showing moderate efficacy along with a higher complication rate. Nonetheless, the validity of these results is questionable, given the heterogeneity of the studies included. Finally, adverse events may occur at a higher rate but are most often minor. The lack of high-quality studies with sufficient patient numbers mandates further studies, preferably randomized, to elucidate the exact role of biodegradable stents in the treatment of refractory benign esophageal strictures.

  • Advances in Flexible Endoscopy
    Advances in Flexible Endoscopy Anant Radhakrishnan, DVM KEYWORDS Flexible endoscopy Minimally invasive procedures Gastroduodenoscopy Minimally invasive surgery KEY POINTS Although some therapeutic uses exist, flexible endoscopy is primarily used as a diagnostic tool. Several novel flexible endoscopic procedures have been studied recently and show prom- ise in veterinary medicine. These procedures provide the clinician with increased diagnostic capability. As the demand for minimally invasive procedures continues to increase, flexible endos- copy is being more readily investigated for therapeutic uses. The utility of flexible endoscopy in small animal practice should increase in the future with development of the advanced procedures summarized herein. INTRODUCTION The demand for minimally invasive therapeutic measures continues to increase in hu- man and veterinary medicine. Pet owners are increasingly aware of technology and diagnostic options and often desire the same care for their pet that they may receive if hospitalized. Certain diseases, such as neoplasia, hepatobiliary disease, pancreatic disease, and gastric dilatation–volvulus, can have significant morbidity associated with them such that aggressive, invasive measures may be deemed unacceptable. Even less severe chronic illnesses such as inflammatory bowel disease can be asso- ciated with frustration for the pet owner such that more immediate and detailed infor- mation regarding their pet’s disease may prove to be beneficial. Minimally invasive procedures that can increase diagnostic and therapeutic capability with reduced pa- tient morbidity will be in demand and are therefore an area of active investigation.

Bile CHEMICAL CHANGES IN THE LARGE INTESTINE AND FECES, CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF FECES The large intestine, also known as colon or the the large bowel, is the last part of the gastrointestinal tract and of the digestive system in vertebrates. The digestive tract includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine and the rectum. There are 4 major functions of the large intestine: 1. recovery of water and electrolytes (Na, Cl etc) 2. formation and temporary storage of feces 3. maintaining a resident population of over 500 species of bacteria 3. fermentation of some of the indigestible food matter by bacteria. By the time partially digested foodstuffs reach the end of the small intestine (ileum), about 80% of the water content will be absorbed by the large intestine. The colon absorbs most of the remaining water. As the remnant food material moves through the colon, it is mixed with bacteria and mucus, and formed into feces for temporary storage before being eliminated by defecation In humans, the large intestine begins in the right iliac region of the pelvis, just at or below the waist, where it is joined to the end of the small intestine at the cecum, via the ileocecal valve.
