“…Given the unique histological characteristics, limited operating space and high risk of intraoperative bleeding, esophageal hemangioma is a technically challenging, rare disorder for endoscopic experts 1,2 . Previous studies showed that ESD may be applied for esophageal hemangiomas; 3–5 however, this study is the first to show its utility on a difficult positioned hemangioma. Moreover, our case highlights the benefits of ESD in preventing life‐threatening complications.…”

A 58-year-old male was diagnosed esophageal hemangioma during a endoscopy in regular examination. The patient was referred to the department of gastroenterology in our hospital to treatment.Combined endoscopic band ligation (EBL) and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) was performed for diagnostic treatment. Histopathological results revealed hemangioma. Even though several approaches such as esophagectomy, endoscopic removal, sclerotherapy, and laser therapy have been used to remove the esophageal hemangiomas, recently less invasive methods were preferred. Here we describe a case of esophageal hemangioma removed by EBL & EMR.

“…This combination may aid with the decision as to whether the tumor requires resection. With an increasing number of reports describing the curative endoscopic resection of SMTs by ESD (26,27), further advances in diagnostics are required. Therefore, if the application of EVF assists with the diagnosis of SMTs, unnecessary and invasive resections may be avoided.…”

Although the macroscopic characteristics of submucosal tumors (SMTs), such as gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), have been characterized, the assessment of SMTs by their endoscopically visualized features (EVF; which are observed by endoscopic imaging under direct view) remains unevaluated. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of endoscopic diagnostics for SMTs using EVF. The EVF of 26 gastric SMT cases, in which the final pathological diagnosis was obtained by core biopsy using the submucosal endoscopy with mucosal flap method, were retrospectively reviewed. Each type of SMT was classified according to the following five EVF: Color, clarity, shape, tumor coating and solidity. Additionally, the EVF of 13 low-risk GISTs and 13 benign submucosal tumors (BSTs) were comparatively evaluated for the five abovementioned EVF. Similar trends were identified between the low-risk GISTs, granular cell tumors and the schwannoma with regard to EVF. However, while these tumors exhibited cloudy EVF, the leiomyomas tended to exhibit clear EVF. Among SMTs of the heterotopic pancreas type, the EVF demonstrated particularly small nodules of the pancreatic tissue itself. Although the sample size included in the present study is small, a classification system for gastric SMTs was proposed according to the EVF. When compared with the BST group, the GIST group demonstrated a significantly higher frequency of tumors that exhibited a combination of three EVF (white, cloudy and rigid) that are consistent with all gastric GISTs (P<0.05). Gastric SMTs may be classified based on the EVF, which indicates that the EVF possess potential diagnostic value for the differentiation of GISTs from BSTs.
