    Abstract Background: Anal fissures cause severe pain and can be difficult to treat. Medical therapy is initially used, followed by sigmoidoscopy-guided botox injections if the medical therapy is not successful. With this technique, however, it is not clear whether botox is injected into the muscle layer or submucosa. Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of EUS-guided botox injection directly into the internal sphincter. Methods: Consecutive patients with chronic anal fissure refractory to conventional endoscopic botulinum toxin type A injection were enrolled in the study. EUS was performed using a linear array echoendoscope, and a 25 G needle was used to inject botox. All patients were followed up at one- and two-month intervals. Results: Eight patients with chronic anal fissures were included in the study. Six patients had an excellent response to botox at the two-month interval using a visual analog pain scale, while one patient had a moderate response with a pain score reduction of 40%. One patient had no response. No complications were noted. An improvement in visual analog scale (pre-score > post-score) was statistically significant at the p < 0.01 level. Conclusion: EUS-guided botox injection into the internal sphincter appears to be a promising technique for patients with refractory anal fissure with pain.

    Abstract Background and study aims : Papillary and duodenal carcinoma are aggressive cancers with poor 5-year survival rates. Papillectomy is a well-established treatment for early-stage carcinoma of the major papilla. Tumors arising in the minor papilla are relatively rare and there is little research available on the endoscopic management of these tumors.
    Patients and methods : The purpose of this study was to establish the safety and efficacy of endoscopic papillectomy in the management of minor papillary tumors. A total of six patients undergoing ERCP for papillectomy for minor papillary tumor at four hospitals were included in this study over a period of 5 years.
    Results : Papillectomy was technically successful in all six patients. Pathology revealed adenoma in three patients, adenoma with high-grade dysplasia in one patient, carcinoma in one patient, and carcinoid tumor in one patient. For follow-up, one patient had an additional tumor identified at 2 years which was found to be a recurrence of the original adenoma. This patient was treated with repeat papillectomy with no further evidence of recurrence.
    Conclusions : In our pilot study, we demonstrate that endoscopic papillectomy appears safe and effective in the management of minor papillary tumors.
