Accuracy of Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) for Staging Ampullary Tumors

Azar, Riad R.; Wani, Sachin B.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; John, Hornick; Hovis, Christine E.; Early, Dayna S.; Mullady, Daniel (2016-09-22)

EUS is frequently used in the evaluation of ampullary tumors. With the advent of endoscopic ampullectomy that offers diagnostic and therapeutic potential for ampullary adenoma and early cancer, accurate staging is critical
Accuracy of Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) in T-Staging of Ampullary Tumors

Azar, Riad R.; Wani, Sachin B.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Gaddam, Srinivas; Madhoun, Mohammad; Rastogi, Amit; Early, Dayna S.; Mullady, Daniel (2016-09-19)

EUS is routinely used for confirming the diagnosis and staging ampullary tumors. EUS staging helps to identify patients optimal candidates for endoscopic ampullectomy and avoid surgery in this group or those with unresectable ...
Efficacy of Endoscopic Mucosal Resection for Management of Small Duodenal Neuroendocrine Tumors

Azar, Riad R.; Shroff, Sagar R.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Wani, Sachin B.; Gupta, Neil; Jonnalagadda, Sreenivasa S.; Murad, Faris; Early, Dayna S.; Mullady, Daniel K.; Edmundowicz, Steven A. (2016-10-07)

Background: Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for small (<20 mm) duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) remains controversial because of their rarity. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of ...
EUS Is Superior to CT and MRCP in the Diagnosis of Pancreas Divisum

Azar, Riad R.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Wani, Sachin B.; Hovis, Christine E.; Early, Dayna S.; Jin, David X.; Mullady, Daniel (2016-09-08)

Pancreas divisum (PD), is the most common congenital variant of pancreatic anatomy, and is found in ∼10% of the population. It may account for up to 25% of cases of unexplained acute and chronic pancreatitis. ERCP, the ...
Incidence and Predictors of Residual Adenoma After Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) of Large Sessile Colon Polyps

Azar, Riad R.; Wani, Sachin B.; Hovis, Christine E.; Kanuri, Navya D.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Geisman, Taylor; Mullady, Daniel; Murad, Faris (2016-09-26)

The risk of residual adenomatous polyp at first f/u colonoscopy after EMR of large sessile polyps is unclear and ranges from 0-55%. Data on predictors of residual adenoma at first f/u are sparse.
Lack of Association Between Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) Use and Early Plastic Biliary Stent Occlusion

Azar, Riad R.; Hovis, Christine E.; Sayuk, Gregory S.; Wani, Sachin B.; Merrill, Joseph T.; Murad, Faris (2016-09-09)

There are data suggesting that long-term use of PPIs may lead to small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Plastic biliary stents are used to maintain patency of the biliary tract in a variety of benign and malignant disorders ...
Plastic Versus Self-Expanding Metallic Stents for the Management of Malignant Hilar Biliary Strictures

Azar, Riad R.; Jin, David X.; Wani, Sachin B.; Sayuk, Gregory S.; Hovis, Christine E.; Mullady, Daniel; Murad, Faris; Early, Dayna S. (2016-09-23)

Palliation of jaundice as primary or adjunctive therapy has become the standard approach to patients with unresectable malignant obstruction of the biliary hilum. However, use of plastic or self-expanding metallic stents ...
The role of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in the diagnosis of unexplained lymphadenopathy

Azar, Riad R.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Wani, Sachin B.; Hovis, Christine E.; Jin, David X.; Murad, Faris; Mullady, Daniel; Jonnalagadda, Sreenivasa S. (2016-09-23)

There are limited data on diagnostic yield of EUS-guided fine needle aspiration with flow cytometry (EUS-FNA/FC) and core needle biopsy (CNB) in the evaluation of unexplained lymphadenopathy (LAD). Accuracy rates of 70-90% ...
Safety of anesthesia-assisted sedation with propofol for advanced endoscopic procedures in obese individuals.

Azar, Riad R.; Wani, Sachin B.; Hovis, Robert M.; Cote, Gregory A.; Hovis, Christine E.; Mullady, Daniel; Waldbaum, Lawrence; Early, Dayna S.; Murad, Faris (2016-09-26)

There is limited data on efficacy and safety of anesthesia-assisted endoscopy using propofol-mediated sedation in obese individuals undergoing advanced endoscopic procedures (AEP).
Sensitivity of endoscopic ultrasound, multidetector computed tomography, and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography in the diagnosis of pancreas divisum

Azar, Riad R.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Wani, Sachin B.; Fowler, Kathryn; Menias, Christine; Varma, Rakesh; Narra, Vamsi; Hovis, Christine; Murad, Faris M. (2016-09-21)

Objectives: There are limited data comparing imaging modalities in the diagnosis of pancreas divisum. We aimed to: (1) evaluate the sensitivity of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography ...
Tu1454 safety of endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of large sessile colon polyps

Azar, Riad R.; Wani, Sachin B.; Hovis, Christine E.; Geisman, Taylor; Kanuri, Navya D.; Kushnir, Vladimir M.; Mullady, Daniel; Murad, Faris (2016-09-21)
Use of a pancreatic duct stent or guidewire facilitates bile duct access with low rates of precut sphincterotomy

Azar, Riad R.; Coté, Gregory A.; Mullady, Daniel K.; Jonnalagadda, Sreenivasa S.; Keswani, Rajesh N.; Wani, Sachin B.; Hovis, Christine E.; Ammar, Tarek (2016-09-19)
