| Abstract | BACKGROUND: EMR is a viable alternative to surgery for removal of large mucosal neoplastic lesions of the entire GI tract. Few studies have, however, been published on the safety, efficacy, and technical aspects of EMR in the duodenum. OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EMR of large (>15 mm) duodenal adenomas. DESIGN: Retrospective evaluation of a defined patient cohort. SETTING: Tertiary academic referral center. PATIENTS: Patients with large (>15 mm) sporadic nonampullary duodenal adenomas managed by a standardized technique who were referred by other specialist endoscopists for endoscopic treatment. METHODS: Five-year data from patients undergoing EMR for large duodenal adenomas were reviewed retrospectively. Immediate and delayed complications were recorded. RESULTS: Twenty-one lesions were removed by EMR in 23 patients (mean age 62.2 years, 13 female, 10 male). The mean size of lesions resected was 27.6 mm (median 20 mm, range 15-60 mm). Post-EMR histologic examination revealed mucosal adenocarcinoma in 1, low-grade tubulovillous adenoma (TVA) in 16, high- or focal high-grade TVA in 3 patients, and 1 with both high-grade TVA and carcinoid. EMR was performed successfully in 18 patients during a single session. Two patients required 2 sessions and 1 required 3 sessions for complete resection. The median follow-up was 13 months (range 4-44 months). During follow-up, 5 patients had minor residual adenomas that were treated successfully with snare resection and/or argon plasma coagulation. One patient had EMR site bleeding. There were no perforations. LIMITATION: Retrospective study. CONCLUSION: EMR for large sporadic nonampullary duodenal adenomas is a safe and effective technique. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
