Procedure Information


Scope: PCF-H190DL

Case Findings: Large 40mm splenic flexure NG-LST (histology: tubular adenoma with high grade dysplasia)

Organ: colon

Patient information: 86 years old, Male

Medical history: Known dyslipidemia; complained of dyspepsia but was found to have positive fecal occult blood test

1. WLI Observation

This large 40mm NG-LST (flat elevated type) was noted at splenic flexure. Part of the border of the lesion that was closer to the fold appeared inconspicuous under WLI.

2. TXI™ technology Observation

TXI™ technology mode enhanced the surface and color of the lesion and helped in delineating the border. 1

3. NBI™ technology Observation

Observation under NBI™ technology mode also provided further aid in border delineation.2

4. NBI™ technology Observation

Observed under closed-up NBI™ technology mode revealed JNET Type 2A vessel on the upper part of the lesion

5. NBI™ technology Observation

NBI™ technology mode with closed-up view was able to enhance the visualization of the lower border of the lesion and at the same time reveal the underlying JNET Type 2B vessel.

6. NBI™ technology Observation

NBI™ technology mode with closed-up view was able to enhance the visualization of the lower border of the lesion and at the same time reveal the underlying JNET Type 2B vessel.

7. NBI™ technology Observation

NBI™ technology mode with closed-up view was able to enhance the visualization of the lower border of the lesion and at the same time reveal the underlying JNET Type 2B vessel.

8. NBI™ technology Observation

NBI™ technology mode with closed-up view was able to enhance the visualization of the lower border of the lesion and at the same time reveal the underlying JNET Type 2B vessel.

9. Indigocarmine Chromoendoscopy

Conventional chromoendoscopy (dye-based image enhanced endoscopy) using 0.4% undiluted indigocarmine further aided in the border delineation of this lesion especially the inconspicuous lower border

Overall Comment

The lesion was a flat elevated non-granular lateral spreading tumor measuring about 40mm at around the splenic flexure. Part of the lesion had indistinct border. Despite the inability to perform near focus examination due to the choice of colonoscope, close-up view under NBI™ technology mode was able to show a detailed image of this lesion and it helped in border delineation and recognition of the superficial vessel type under JNET classification.2 Conventional chromoendoscopy using indigo carmine dye further aided the border delineation. This lesion will be subjected for endoscopic submucosal dissection.
