"Esophageal polyp can be found by chance during endoscopic examination. Polyps can be formed by changes in the esophageal mucosa due to reflux esophagitis. We report a case of multiple esophageal polyp in a patient with complaints of recurrent regurgitation without heartburn. Endoscopy demonstrated multiple polyps at the distal esophagus. Anatomic pathology evaluation of the polyp demonstrated mucosa lined with squamous epithels demonstrating elongation of the papilla and deposition of acute and chronic inflammatory cells, indicating chronic esophagitis with hyperplastic epithels. In this case, we conducted recurrent ligation of the multiple polyps. Evaluation at 2 weeks after the final ligation demonstrated no polyp remains, and the post-ligation ulcer was found. Evaluation at 1 month following treatment found diminished complaints. From this case, we can conclude that endoscopy is an important investigation modality to establish the diagnosis in cases of chronic gastrointestinal complaints. Ligation is a choice for the management of esophageal polyps"

"Pasien sirosis hati perlu dievaluasi secara berkala untuk menentukan adanya varises esofagus (VE) dan ukurannya (besar atau kecil), karena VE besar membutuhkan penatalaksanaan yang lebih agresif. Evaluasi ini dilakukan dengan endoskopi yang tidak selalu ada, invasif, dan berbiaya tinggi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan pemeriksaan yang non invasif, lebih murah, dan lebih mudah diakses untuk menentukan besarnya VE. Parameter yang diteliti adalah hitung trombosit, prothrombin time (PT), kadar albumin, dan bilirubin. Desain penelitian adalah potong lintang dengan 64 subjek, terdiri atas 24 pasien sirosis hati dengan VE besar dan 40 tanpa VE besar. Pada penelitian ini didapatkan perbedaan bermakna pada hitung trombosit, PT, dan kadar albumin antara kedua kelompok, sedangkan kadar bilirubin tidak memberikan perbedaan yang bermakna. Untuk parameter hitung trombosit didapatkan besar area under the curve untuk memprediksi VE besar sebesar 80,9%, dengan cutoff 89,5 x 103/μL didapatkan sensitivitas 79,2% dan spesifisitas 75,0%; PT 68,4%, dengan cutoff 14,05 detik didapatkan sensitivitas 70,8% dan spesifisitas 67,5%; kadar albumin 76,6%, dengan cutoff 3,275 g/dL didapatkan sensitivitas 70,8% dan spesifisitas 75,0%. Model prediksi sirosis hati dengan VE besar adalah P = 1/(1 + Exp-Logit (y)) dengan Logit (y) = 11,989 – 0,026 x hitung trombosit – 2,243 x kadar albumin – 0,184 x PT.

Patients with liver cirrhosis require periodic evaluation to determine the presence and size of esophageal varices (EV), because the large ones demand more aggressive management. Evaluation is done using endoscopy, which is not always available, invasive, and costly. This study aims to acquire tests that are noninvasive, cheaper, and more accessible to determine the size of EV. Studied parameters were platelet count, prothrombin time (PT), albumin, and bilirubin level. The study design was cross sectional with 64 subjects, consisted of 24 liver cirrhotic patients with large VE and 40 without.

This study found significant difference in platelet count, PT, and albumin level between both groups, while bilirubin level was not. The size of area under the curve for platelet count to predict large VE was 80.9%, cutoff 89.5 x 103/μL (sensitivity 79.2%, specificity 75.0%), PT 68.4%, cutoff 14.05 seconds (sensitivity 70.8%, specificity 67.5%), and albumin level 76.6%, cutoff 3.275 g/dL (sensitivity 70.8%, specificity 75.0%). Prediction model for liver cirrhosis with large VE was P = 1/(1 + Exp-Logit (y)) with Logit (y) = 11.989 – 0.026 x platelet count – 2.243 x albumin level – 0.184 x PT."

"ABSTRACTPurpose: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used to treat esophageal cancer, but some patients require additional treatment due to the possibility of lymph node metastasis. The aim of this study was to elucidate the clinical outcomes of these additional treatments.Methods: The study included 59 patients who developed superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after noncurative ESD treated between 2005 and 2016, of whom 28 underwent esophagectomy and 31 received chemoradiotherapy (CRT).Results: The median follow-up periods were 45 months in the esophagectomy group and 41 months in the CRT group. The overall survival did not differ significantly between the groups (P = 0.46). However, there were no recurrences in the esophagectomy group, and the disease-specific survival rate was significantly higher in this group (P = 0.042). Among the patients at high risk for recurrence due to massive tumor invasion (≥ SM2) with lymphovascular invasion (esophagectomy group, six patients; CRT group, ten patients), none in the esophagectomy group had recurrence, whereas four in the CRT group died of esophageal cancer (P = 0.031).Conclusion: The overall survival did not differ significantly between the groups. However, compared with CRT, esophagectomy provided more favorable disease control for patients with massive tumor invasion (≥ SM2) with lymphovascular invasion."

"Pendahuluan. Esofagektomi merupakan tata laksana pembedahan standar bagi pasien kanker esofagus resektabel. Namun, angka kesembuhan tindakan ini hanya berkisar antara 25 - 35% dan dihubungkan dengan seriusnya risiko komplikasi pascabedah. Pasien pascaesofagektomi diketahui mengalami penurunan kualitas hidup, tetapi belum ada penelitiannya di Indonesia. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui kualitas hidup pasien pascaesofagektomi pada populasi pasien di RSUPN Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo (RSCM).Metode. Penelitian ini merupakan kohort retrospektif dengan menggunakan instrumen yang dikeluarkan oleh European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), yaitu modul khusus kanker esofagus EORTC-QLQ-OES18 dan core questionnaire C30. Populasinya adalah pasien pascaesofagektomi periode 2015—2021 di RSCM.Hasil. Sebanyak 35 subjek dilakukan esofagektomi dan rekonstruksi pascaesofagektomi. Terdiri dari laki-laki 62,9% dan perempuan 37,1%. Rerata usia adalah 43,8 tahun (SB: 13,1). Median kualitas hidup (global health) dari semua subjek adalah 83,3 (IQR: 25,0). Item pertanyaan skala fungsional terhadap keseluruhan subjek yang memiliki skor paling rendah adalah cognitive functioning (CF). Sedangkan berdasarkan item pertanyaan skala gejala terhadap keseluruhan subjek yang memiliki skor paling tinggi, yaitu nausea and vomiting (NV), pain (PA), dysphagia (OESDYS), eating (OESEAT), choking (OESCH), dan coughing (OESCO).Kesimpulan. Kualitas hidup pasien pascaesofagektomi di RSCM berdasarkan kuesioner EORTC-QLQ-C30 dan OES18 secara keseluruhan tergolong baik. Faktor prognostik yang berhubungan dengan penurunan kualitas hidup sebaiknya lebih diedukasi ke pasien dan dilakukan upaya persiapan sejak sebelum tindakan esofagektomi dikerjakan sehingga dapat memaksimalkan kualitas hidup pascaoperasi.

Introduction. Esophagectomy is the standard surgical treatment for resectable esophageal cancer patients. However, the success rate for this procedure was about 25—35% and was associated with a severe risk of postoperative complications. Patients after esophagectomy have decreased their quality of life (QOL), but no research has been done in Indonesia. This study was conducted to determine the quality of life after esophagectomy in Indonesia based on the patient population at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital (CMGH).

Method. A retrospective study was conducted using quality of life instruments issued by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC). It consists of the module for esophageal cancer EORTC-QLQ-OES18 and the core questionnaire C30. Subjects were patients after esophagectomy in 2015—2021 at CMGH.

Results. About 35 subjects underwent esophagectomy and followed by reconstruction, which comprised 62.9% male and 37.1% female. The mean age was 43.8 years (SD: 13.1 years). All subjects' median global health was 83.3 (IQR: 25.0). The overall functional scale question item with the lowest score was cognitive functioning (CF) 66.7 (IQR: 50.0). Meanwhile, based on the question items on the overall symptom scale, the worst scores were nausea and vomiting (NV) 16.7 (IQR: 50.0), pain (PA) 16.7 (IQR: 33.3), dysphagia (OESDYS) 33.3 (IQR: 33.3), eating (OESEAT) 34.5 (IQR: 23.9), choking (OESCH) 33.3 (IQR: 33.3), and coughing (OESCO) 33.3 (IQR: 33.3).

Conclusion. The overall QOL after esophagectomy at CMGH based on the EORTC-QLQ-C30 and OES18 questionnaires was good. Prognostic factors associated with decreased quality of life should be better educated to patients and prepared well before the esophagectomy procedure, thus maximizing quality of life after esophagectomy.

"Based on its relation to the liver sinusoid, increased pressure of portal vein can occur at three levels: presinusoid, sinusoid ,and postsinusoid. Obstruction of the presinusoid veins can be caused by extra-hepatic condition such as venous thrombosis.

We reported a case of portal hypertension with esophageal varices bleeding was a result of obstruction due to thrombosis of the splenic vein and portal vein under hypercoagulant conditions due to thrombocyto-sis. The management of esophageal varices was sclerotherapy while for overcome the thrombosis the patient was given hydroxy urea."

"Mitral stenosis merupakan kelainan katup yang paling sering ditemukan di bagian Kardiologi RS. M. Hoesin, Palembang, dan bukti kuat menunjukkan adanya tromboemboli pada mitral stenosis. Banyak studi melihat kontras ekho spontan (KES) yang dianggap sebagai awal kejadian tromboemboli, namun terdapat kontroversi mengenai bagaimana mencapai regresi KES ini. Uji klinik tersamar ganda dilakukan untuk membandingkan aspirin 100 mg dengan acenocoumarol (sintrom) 1 mg yang diberikan selama 4 minggu pada 22 penderita mitral stenosis. Pada akhir penelitian diperoleh regresi 100 % pada KES kelompok acenocoumarol, 40% diantaranya regresi dari KES berat menjadi ringan, sedangkan 60 % mengalami resolusi sempurna. Pada kelompok aspirin tidak satupun KES mengalami regresi. Pada kelompok acenocoumarol, 2 di antara 4 trombus menghilang, sedangkan 2 sisanya ukurannya mengecil, sedangkan pada kelompok aspirin pada akhir minggu keempat, pasien dengan thrombus bertambah dari 3 menjadi 4. Kesimpulan: Pemakaian acenocoumarol 1 mg selama 4 minggu dapat secara efektif dan aman meregresi kontras echo spontan dan thrombus pada mitral stenosis tanpa perubahan hemodinamik yang berarti.

Mitral stenosis is one of the most often valvular disease in Division of Cardiology, M. Hoesin hospital, Palembang, and there was strong evidence of thromboembolic phenomenon in mitral stenosis (MS) patients. Many studies evaluated the spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) that was regarded as a precursor of thrombo embolic phenomenon. So far there were controversies regarding how to regress spontaneous echo contrast. A randomized double blind controlled study was done on 22 MS patients with positive SEC, receiving either aspirin 100 mg or acenocoumarol 1 mg and followed up after 4 weeks. There was 100 % regression of SEC in acenocoumarol group that consisted of 40% regression from severe SEC to mild, and 60% complete resolution. In aspirin group there was no resolution of SEC. In acenocoumarol group, 2 of 4 thrombus totally disappeared while the rest was reduced in size. On the other hand, in aspirin group, after 4 weeks, the patients with thrombus was increased from 3 to 4 patients. In conclusion, four week therapy with acenocoumarol 1 mg is effective and save in regressing spontaneous echo contrast and thrombus in mitral stenosis patients without any significant change in hemodynamics.

ABSTRACTBackground and Objective : Esophageal varices is a complication of liver cirrhosis with high mortality. Doppler ultrasound examination is non-invasive, widely available and relatively low cost to be considered as a screening method of varices. Unfortunately, there is still no splenoportal Doppler parameter that can be used as an indicator of varices with high accuracy. Index of splenic vein flow volume to portal vein flow velocity is thought to be a new, more accurate parameter.Methods : A cross-sectional observational study conducted in 28 patients with liver cirrhosis in the Division of Hepatology Department of Internal Medicine Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital during November 2015 to February 2016. Index and other splenoportal Doppler parameters are the primary data. Subjects were divided into three groups : a group of non varices, small and large varices. The comparative test conducted to compare the mean index and other splenoportal Doppler parameters among the three groups. Analysis of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed on parameters that are statistically significant to get the sensitivity and specificity value.Results : Median index in the group of non varices is 9,60 (4,67 – 15,07), 21,18 (8,92 – 25,24) in small varices and 64,43 (46,67 – 145,88) in large varices group with p<0.001. ROC curve analysis generated optimal cutting point index 15,78 which gives 80% sensitivity and 100% specificity to differentiate small and non varices group and the cutoff point of 36.0 which provides 100% sensitivity and specificity to differentiate among the large and small varices.Conclusions : There is a significant association between the index of splenic vein flow volume to portal vein flow velocity by ultrasound with the degree of esophageal varices by endoscopy in patients with liver cirrhosis and this index can be used as indicator of esophageal varices with high accuracy."
