    Title translation Black esophagus and black duodenum - rare cause of an upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
    Abstract We present the case of a 73-year-old female patient with acute esophageal necrosis, or black esophagus, and consecutive distal esophageal perforation. Additionally, the patient had the rare coincidence of duodenal necrosis or black duodenum. Black esophagus is usually diagnosed endoscopically and is characterized by a circular necrosis of the esophagus with abrupt normalization at the gastroesophageal junction. Black esophagus is a rare cause of symptoms of upper gastrointestinal bleeding with a mortality rate of up to 30 %. Complications include esophageal perforation and esophageal stricture formation. No causal therapy is available.

    Abstract Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains the most common esophageal cancer in the world, though a rising incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma could be seen during the last decade in the western world. There are several known risk factors for ESCC, such as smoking, alcohol consumption, radiation or others. As there is a risk of lymph node metastasis already in early stages, early endoscopic detection is crucial for curative endoscopic treatment options. Therefore, newest technical improvements such as enhancement techniques or virtual chromoendoscopy are helpful for the diagnosis of mucosal carcinoma. Lugol's iodine remains the gold standard to detect early esophageal cancer, however, it should be combined with these newer techniques. For the prediction of invasion depth, a new classification was developed by the Japan Esophageal society. By using magnifying endoscopy and Narrow Band Imaging, the microvascular morphology allows a prediction of invasion depth of early squamous cell carcinoma. Endoscopic resection is suitable for patients with early-stage ESCC (m1-m2), because of the low risk of lymph node metastasis. EMR should be performed if the lesion is smaller than 15 mm, because a R0 resection can be achieved. Larger lesions (>15 mm) should be resected via endoscopic submucosal dissection to reach an en bloc resection, a lower recurrence rate and a R0 situation.

    Abstract Background/aims: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) has been established as a treatment modality for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Long-term follow-up data are lacking in Western countries. The aim of this study was to analyze long-term survival in a Western center.
    Methods: Patients undergoing ESD for ESCC were included. The analysis was performed retrospectively using a prospectively collected database.
    Results: R0 resection rate was 96.7% (59/61 lesions in 58 patients). Twenty-seven patients (46.6%) fulfilled the curative resection criteria (M1/M2) (group A), 11 patients (19.0%) had M3 lesions without lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (group B), and 20 patients (34.5%) had lesions with submucosal invasion or LVI (group C). Additional treatment was recommended after non-curative resection. It was not performed in 20/31 patients (64.5%), mainly because of comorbidities (75%). Twenty-nine out of 58 (50.0%) patients died during a mean follow-up of 3.7 years. Death was related to ESCC in 17.2% (5/29) of patients. The disease-specific survival rate after curative resection was 100%. Overall survival rates after 5 years were 61.5%, 63.6% and 28.1% for groups A, B, and C, respectively. The overall survival was significantly worse after non-curative resection (p=0.038).
    Conclusion: Non-curative resection is frequent after ESD for ESCC in Western patients. The long-term prognosis is limited and mainly determined by comorbidity. Early diagnosis and pre-interventional assessments need to be improved.

    Abstract Wir berichten über den fulminanten Verlauf eines black esophagus mit konsekutiver distaler Ösophagusperforation sowie eines black duodenum bei einer 73-jährigen Patientin. Die Diagnose des black esophagus erfolgt anhand des endoskopischen Bildes und ist charakterisiert durch die zirkuläre Nekrose des Ösophagus mit abruptem Übergang in regelrecht perfundierte Schleimhaut ab der Z-Linie. Der black esophagus ist eine seltene Ursache einer oberen gastrointestinalen Blutung und ist mit einer hohen Mortaliät von über 30 % verknüpft. Komplikativ können sich eine Ösophagusperforation und im langfristigen Verlauf eine Ösophagusstenose entwickeln. Eine kausale Therapie existiert nicht.

    Abstract Background and aims: Endoscopic resection (ER) is accepted as standard treatment for intramucosal esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) with well or moderate differentiation. Poor differentiation (PD) is judged as a risk factor for lymph node metastasis (LNM) and surgery is recommended. However, the evidence for this recommendation is weak. Study aim was to analyze the clinical course of patients after ER of EAC with PD.
    Patients and methods: Patients undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection for EAC were included from 16 German centers. Inclusion criteria were PD in the resection specimen, R0 resection and endoscopic follow-up. Primary outcome was the metastasis rate during follow-up. Analysis was performed retrospectively in a prospectively collected database.
    Results: 25 patients with PD as single risk factor (group A) and 15 patients with PD and additional risk factors (submucosal invasion and/or lymphovascular invasion) were included. The metastasis rate was was 1/25 (4.0%; 95%CI 0.4-17.2) in group A and 3/15 (20.0%; 95%CI 6.0-44.4%) in group B, respectively (p=0.293). The rate of EAC-associated deaths was 1/25 (4%; 95%CI 0.4-17.2%) versus 3/15 (20%; 95%CI 6.0-44.4%) in group B (p=0.293) while the overall death rate was 7/25 (28.0%; 95%CI 13.5-47.3%) versus 3/15 (20%; 95%CI 6.0-44.4%) (p=0.715). Median follow-up was 30 months (IQR 15-53).
    Conclusions: During long-term follow-up the risk of metastasis is low after ER of mucosal EAC with PD as single risk factor. A conservative approach seems justified in this small patient group. However, the treatment strategy has to be determined on an individualized basis until further prospective data are available.

    Abstract Background: Vedolizumab (VDZ) is a well-established and important therapeutic option in the treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the significance of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) with VDZ remains a contradictory field in daily clinical practice. Our study aims to clarify the predictive impact of VDZ drug levels in long-term clinical outcomes in a real-world cohort.
    Methods: Patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) from a tertiary IBD referral center at the University Hospital Augsburg, Germany, were enrolled in this single-center retrospective data analysis. Clinical and endoscopic data were collected at month 6, month 12, and at the last time of follow-up, and outcomes were correlated with VDZ levels at week 6.
    Results: This study included 95 patients, 68.4% (
    Conclusions: This study demonstrated efficacy and safety for VDZ in a real-world cohort. Although, for some parameters, a clear trend for higher VDZ levels at week 6 was seen, the efficacy of VDZ was not significantly correlated to VDZ level at week 6, which questions the predictive value of VDZ levels in the real world.

    Abstract Background: COVID-19 is a viral disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), first described in 2019, with a significant impact on everyday life since then. In December 2020, the first vaccine against COVID-19 from BioNTech/Pfizer was approved for the first time. However, little is known about the immune response to vaccination in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and immunomodulators or biologics. The aim of our study was to investigate antibody response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients with IBD receiving immunomodulators or biologics compared to healthy controls.
    Methods: This was a single-center study with a retrospective observational design. Seventy-two patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease were included. Matching data from 72 healthy employees of our hospital were used as the control group. Data were matched by propensity score to patients with IBD. Blood samples were taken from both groups for antibody response, and both groups received an accompanying questionnaire.
    Results: Sixty-five (90.3%) patients of the IBD group reported taking immunomodulatory therapy. The mean antibody level for all IBD patients was 1,257.1 U/mL (standard deviation [SD] 1,109.626) in males and 1,500.1 U/mL (SD 1142.760) in female IBD patients after full vaccination. Compared to the healthy group, reduced antibody response could be detected (IBD group 1,383.76 U/mL SD 1,125.617; control group 1,885.65 U/mL SD 727.572, p < 0.05). In this group, blood samples were taken with an average of 61.9 days after the first vaccination. There was no vaccination failure in the IBD group after 2 vaccinations. After the first vaccination, side effects, including muscle pain, pain at the injection site, and fatigue, were reported more often in IBD patients than in the control group (total symptoms IBD group 58.3%, control group 34.5%, p < 0.007). The opposite occurred after the second vaccination when side effects were higher in the control group (total symptoms IBD group 55.4%, control group 76%, p = 0.077). There was a trend to a reduced immune response in elderly patients. Disease duration and concomitant immunomodulatory therapy (TNF-alpha blockers, interleukin inhibitors, integrin inhibitors, methotrexate, or azathioprine) had no impact on the immune response. However, longer time to last medication given and time passed to vaccination in patients with IBD seems to have a positive impact on antibody levels.
    Conclusion: Overall, we could show a high antibody response to vaccination with COVID-19 in all patients with IBD after 2 vaccinations. Vaccination was well tolerated, and no other adverse events were detected. Concomitant immunomodulatory therapy (TNF-alpha blockers, interleukin inhibitors, integrin inhibitors, methotrexate, or azathioprine) had no impact on seroconversion. Further evaluation of antibody titers over time is mandatory to detect early the need for re-vaccination in these patients.

    Abstract The endoscopic features associated with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) may be missed during routine endoscopy. We aimed to develop and evaluate an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm for detecting and quantifying the endoscopic features of EoE in white light images, supplemented by the EoE Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS). An AI algorithm (AI-EoE) was constructed and trained to differentiate between EoE and normal esophagus using endoscopic white light images extracted from the database of the University Hospital Augsburg. In addition to binary classification, a second algorithm was trained with specific auxiliary branches for each EREFS feature (AI-EoE-EREFS). The AI algorithms were evaluated on an external data set from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill (UNC), and compared with the performance of human endoscopists with varying levels of experience. The overall sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of AI-EoE were 0.93 for all measures, while the AUC was 0.986. With additional auxiliary branches for the EREFS categories, the AI algorithm (AI-EoE-EREFS) performance improved to 0.96, 0.94, 0.95, and 0.992 for sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and AUC, respectively. AI-EoE and AI-EoE-EREFS performed significantly better than endoscopy beginners and senior fellows on the same set of images. An AI algorithm can be trained to detect and quantify endoscopic features of EoE with excellent performance scores. The addition of the EREFS criteria improved the performance of the AI algorithm, which performed significantly better than endoscopists with a lower or medium experience level.

    Abstract In this study, we aimed to develop an artificial intelligence clinical decision support solution to mitigate operator-dependent limitations during complex endoscopic procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissection and peroral endoscopic myotomy, for example, bleeding and perforation. A DeepLabv3-based model was trained to delineate vessels, tissue structures and instruments on endoscopic still images from such procedures. The mean cross-validated Intersection over Union and Dice Score were 63% and 76%, respectively. Applied to standardised video clips from third-space endoscopic procedures, the algorithm showed a mean vessel detection rate of 85% with a false-positive rate of 0.75/min. These performance statistics suggest a potential clinical benefit for procedure safety, time and also training.

    Abstract Background and aims: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) enables the curative resection of early malignant lesions and is associated with reduced recurrence risk. Due to the lack of comprehensive ESD data in the West, the German ESD registry was set up to evaluate relevant outcomes of ESD.
    Methods: The German ESD registry is a prospective uncontrolled multicenter study. During a 35-month period, 20 centers included 1000 ESDs of neoplastic lesions. The results were evaluated in terms of en bloc, R0, curative resection rates, and recurrence rate after a 3-month and 12-month follow-up. Additionally, participating centers were grouped into low-volume (≤20 ESDs/y), middle-volume (20-50/y), and high-volume centers (>50/y). A multivariate analysis investigating risk factors for noncurative resection was performed.
    Results: Overall, en bloc, R0, and curative resection rates of 92.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.90-0.94), 78.8% (95% CI, 0.76-0.81), and 72.3% (95% CI, 0.69-0.75) were achieved, respectively. The overall complication rate was 8.3% (95% CI, 0.067-0.102), whereas the recurrence rate after 12 months was 2.1%. High-volume centers had significantly higher en bloc, R0, curative resection rates, and recurrence rates and lower complication rates than middle- or low-volume centers. The lesion size, hybrid ESD, age, stage T1b carcinoma, and treatment outside high-volume centers were identified as risk factors for noncurative ESD.
    Conclusion: In Germany, ESD achieves excellent en bloc resection rates but only modest curative resection rates. ESD requires a high level of expertise, and results vary significantly depending on the center's yearly case volume.
