Overall Comment
LST-NG lesions are considered precursor lesions of PCCRC 3,4) and should not be missed on colonoscopy. In this LST-NG case, the lesion was detected by pale redness. NBI™ technology observation was very useful in visualizing the extent of the lesion. In general, LST-NG lesions show a depressed area, and detailed endoscopic observation of this area is important for endoscopic histology predictions. In this case, a JNET 2B region was observed in the depressed area. The pathological diagnosis of the depressed area was adenoma with high-grade dysplasia. In Japan, it is recommended that dye endoscopy be added to the endoscopy to improve sensitivity when a lesion showing JNET 2B characteristics is observed.
