Article Abstract

A 13-year-old boy with a 3-month history of diarrhea was successfully treated for a rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NET) using endoscopic submucosal resection with ligation (ESMR-L). Rectoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor in the lower rectum, diagnosed as a rectal NET upon pathological examination. ESMR-L resulted in complete tumor resection without complications. Pathological examination confirmed a 6-mm low-grade NET with no vascular invasion or positive tumor margins. The patient was discharged without complications. This case study indicates that ESMR-L can be applied to rectal NET in children, necessitating further investigation on its efficacy and safety in more patients.

Introduction: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that most commonly originates in the pleura but can also occur at extrapleural sites, including the abdominal cavity. Among these, primary SFT of the stomach is exceptionally rare. Due to overlapping clinical, endoscopic, and radiologic characteristics, distinguishing SFT from gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) can be particularly challenging.

Background: Current guidelines recommend that rectal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) smaller than 10 mm can be treated by endoscopic resection, whereas tumors larger than 20 mm should be treated by surgical resection. However, the optimal treatment of 10-20 mm rectal NETs remains controversial. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for 10-20 mm rectal NETs based on resection margin status.

Background And Aims: A scoring model was proposed to support endoscopic decision-making for cardial submucosal tumors (SMTs). The aim of this study is to perform a multicenter validation of the clinical scoring model and to introduce a new clinical classification system for cardial SMTs.

Methods: A multicenter analysis of endoscopic decision-making for cardial submucosal tumors (SMTs) was conducted.
