Case #1 – Which is the most appropriate next step?
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
6
Case #1 – BarreL’s surveillance
l Risk of progression to cancer is low (<1% per year)
l No dysplasia: EGD every 3-‐5 years l Low grade dysplasia: repeat 6 months, then annually
l High grade dysplasia: confirm by 2nd pathologist à abla&on or esophagectomy due to concomitant adenocarcinoma in 30-‐40%
11 ASGE Standards of Prac&ce CommiLee. Gastrointest Endosc 2012; 76(6):1087-‐94.
12
Case #1 – BarreL’s management
l Medical or surgical an&-‐reflux therapies do not cause regression of BarreL’s; goal is to control symptoms and minimize cancer risk
l Radiofrequency abla&on (RFA) eradicates 80-‐95% of dysplasia and reduces life&me cancer risk from 9% to 1%
l An&-‐reflux surgery reserved for failures of op&mal medical therapy or pa&ent preference
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
7
13
Case #1
l Eradicate H pylori when diagnosed l Reduces risk of PUD, gastric cancer
l However this does not affect progression of BarreL’s and could theore&cally worsen GERD
14
GERD
l GERD can cause chest pain but can be difficult to dis&nguish from cardiac source based on history alone l PPI trial l Cardiac tes&ng in selected pa&ents
l GERD can cause globus and dysphagia à PPI trial l Func&onal heartburn and non erosive reflux disease are
common and are less responsive to acid suppression l Esophageal pH monitoring required to diagnose
l PPI should be taken 30-‐60 minutes before ea&ng for op&mal acid suppression
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
8
15
GERD
l GERD can be exacerbated by l Impaired salivary flow (Sjögrens, XRT) l Esophageal dysmo&lity (scleroderma) l Gastric distension (gastroparesis, dietary habits) l Reduced LES pressure (chocolate, alcohol, nico&ne, CCBs, nitrates, an&depressants, progesterone, benzodiazepines)
l Atypical (extraesophageal) GERD manifesta&ons include: chronic cough, hoarseness, laryngi&s, asthma
16
Dysphagia
l Dysphagia: source suggested by symptoms l IntermiLent solid: Schatzki ring, eosinophilic esophagi&s l Progressive solid: stricture/achalasia (slow) or neoplasm (rapid) l Solid and liquid: dysmo&lity
l EGD usually first test though can consider esophagram l Manometry tes&ng if EGD nondiagnos&c
l Achalasia: lack of peristalsis and non-‐relaxing LES l Oropharyngeal dysphagia usually due to neuromuscular
disorders, and is associated w/ coughing, nasal regurgita&on, choking
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME

17
Eosinophilic esophagiEs
l Eosinophilic esophagi&s l IntermiLent solid food dysphagia or food impac&on, M>F
l Ringed or “feline” esophagus l Eosinophilic infiltrate on biopsy l Treat with elimina&on diet, swallowed inhaled steroids, PPIs
Dellon ES. Gastroenterology 2014; 147(6):1238-‐54.
18
Case #2
l 62 y/o woman with 4 months of epigastric abdominal pain, worse post-‐prandially
l Incompletely relieved by OTC H2RAs l Occasional nausea but no vomi&ng l Mild anorexia l 5 pound weight loss l ASA 81mg/d and PRN ibuprofen for arthri&s l PEx: mild epigastric TTP, otherwise unremarkable
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME

Case #2 – H pylori tesEng
l Rarely treat empirically l Ac&ve infec&on: urea breath test, stool an&gen, endoscopic biopsy
l Ac&ve/prior infec&on: serology
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
12
23
Case #2 – Empiric PPI
l Empiric acid-‐suppression has some efficacy in dyspepsia, and is reasonable in young pa&ents with no alarm symptoms
l COX-‐2 selec&ve NSAIDs have less GI toxicity l New dyspepsia in pa&ents over age 50, dyspepsia with alarm symptoms or family history of gastric cancer, should have EGD to rule out cancer
24
H pylori
l Usually acquired in childhood, person to person transmission l Inverse associa&on with socioeconomic status l OPen asymptoma&c
l 10-‐20% PUD l <0.01% gastric CA
l Treatment: l Triple: PPI, clarithromycin, amoxicillin x 10-‐14 days l Quadruple: PPI, bismuth, metronidazole, tetracycline x 10-‐14 days l Other an&bio&c op&ons include levofloxacin, rifabu&n, nitazoxanide
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
13
25
PepEc ulcer disease
l GUs require biopsy & repeat EGD to exclude CA l Mul&ple non-‐healing ulcers, or ulcers w/ diarrhea: suspect ZES. Best ini&al test: fas&ng serum gastrin
l Elevated gastrin seen in gastric outlet obstruc&on, PPI use, pernicious anemia, renal insufficiency, diabetes, and gastrinoma
l Gastrin levels >1000 highly suspicious for ZES; 200-‐1000 best evaluated with secre&n s&mula&on test (paradoxical rise in gastrin aPer secre&n administered)
26
UGI bleed
l High risk GIB pa&ents taking NSAIDS: l Known PUD, advanced age, warfarin l Test and treat for H pylori l Co-‐prescribe PPI
l Stress, caffeine, prednisone do not cause PUD
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
14
27
UGI bleed
l UGIB may present as hematochezia if brisk, and conversely, slow right-‐sided colonic bleeding may cause melena
l NG tube only 85% sensi&ve in UGIB l Most UGIB will stop spontaneously l Most UGIB can be effec&vely managed by EGD or angiography
l Surgery indicated if persistent or recurrent exsanguina&on
Common causes of upper GI bleeding
PUD (50%)
Mallory-‐Weiss tear (10%)
Varices / portal hypertension (20%)
Erosive gastri&s (10%)
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
15
29
UGI bleed
l Mortality risk ~10% l Increased with advance age, shock, hematochezia, cirrhosis
l EGD: diagnos&c, therapeu&c, prognos&c l IR and surgery are backup l Medical therapy with PPI bolus + con&nuous infusion
l No role for H2RA’s
30

37
Case #3 – CT scan with necrosis
Normal enhancement
Lack of enhancement
38
Case #3 – PancreaEc necrosis
l Persistent symptoms with acute pancrea&&s should raise concern for complica&ons
l Pancrea&c necrosis predicts poor outcome l An&bio&cs not recommended unless high suspicion
or documented infected necrosis l Carbapenems have excellent pancrea&c penetra&on l If pa&ent appears infected and has pancrea&c
necrosis, consider FNA with gram stain/culture l Infected necrosis (posi&ve gram stain) predicts high
mortality rate and requires surgical debridement
Tenner S. Am J Gastroenterol 2013; 108(9):1400-‐15.
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
20
Case #3 – ERCP for pancreaEEs
l ERCP if biliary source for pancrea&&s suspected l ALT is first to rise followed by bilirubin and alkP l Biliary dila&on (US, CT, MRCP)
l Wait for pancrea&&s to improve unless obstruc&ng CBD stone on imaging or suspected cholangi&s
39 Tenner S. Am J Gastroenterol 2013; 108(9):1400-‐15.
40
Case #3 – Acute pancreaEEs management
l Can assess prognosis w/ Ranson or APACHE II l Serial amylase/lipase levels not useful in predic&ng course
l Obtain CT if severe pancrea&&s is suspected (organ failure, lack of improvement, increasing pain, fever, WBC, hypotension)
l Necrosis on CT has worst prognosis
Tenner S. Am J Gastroenterol 2013; 108(9):1400-‐15.
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
21
41
l Prophylac&c an&bio&cs not indicated l Early studies evaluated agents with poor pancreas penetra&on and included pa&ents with mild disease
l Best therapy is good suppor&ve care and aggressive hydra&on (250-‐500 mL/hour, bolus if hypovolemic)
Tenner S. Am J Gastroenterol 2013; 108(9):1400-‐15.
Case #3 – Acute pancreaEEs management
42
Case #3 – When to feed
l Pa&ents can eat when pain-‐free and hungry l Liquid diet and low-‐fat solid diet are equivalent l Post-‐duodenal enteral feeding may be appropriate in pa&ents with acute pancrea&&s but does not improve outcomes compared with on-‐demand oral feeding

Acute pancreaEEs – eEologies
l Most common e&ologies: gallstones and alcohol l Less common: hypertriglyceridemia, post‑ERCP, pregnancy, hypercalcemia, viral, hereditary, autoimmune
l Medica&ons: Erythromycin, tetracycline, 6‑MP/AZA, sulfas, 5‑ASAs, NSAIDs, estrogens, thiazides
Chronic pancreaEEs
l Exocrine and endocrine manifesta&ons l Imaging: dilated duct, calcifica&ons l Enzymes beLer for steatorrhea than pain l For pain can consider celiac plexus block, surgical op&ons
l Can cause biliary obstruc&on l Pancreas divisum: failure of fusion of dorsal and ventral glands; found in 5% of popula&on; may predispose to chronic pancrea&&s

Case 7 Which of the following is the best approach at this Eme?
1. Repeat FOBT on spontaneously defecated stool
2. Colonoscopy
3. Flexible Sigmoidoscopy
4. Barium Enema
5. CT colonography
92
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
47
93
Case #7
l Could be false posi&ve FOBT due to DRE or hemorrhoids, but a posi&ve test always requires a complete colonoscopy
l No role for “confirmatory” retes&ng
94
Colorectal cancer screening
l Approved CRC screening methods: l Colonoscopy (q 10 years) l Flexible sigmoidoscopy (q 5 years) l CT colonography (q 5 years) l FOBT/FIT (annually) l BE has fallen out of favor (q 5 years)
l Any posi&ve exam à colonoscopy l CEA not used for screening l Fecal DNA not widely used

95
Polyps & colorectal cancer
l Increased CRC risk l Personal or family history of polyps or cancer
l 10 years before age of affected family member or age 40, whichever is earlier
l IBD l APer 8-‐10 years of disease
l Subsequent colonoscopy intervals if average risk l 10 years if no polyps l 5 years is < 2 small adenomas l 3 years if >2 small, or any large (10mm+) adenomas
Lieberman DA. Gastroenterology 2012; 143(3):844-‐57.
96
Cancer syndromes
l Familial Adenomatous Polyposis: AD, 1/3 new muta&ons, cancer in 30s w/o colectomy
l Gardner's = FAP w/ extracolonic osteomas, desmoid tumors, congenital hypertrophy of the pigmented re&nal epithelium
l Both caused by same muta&on (APC), a tumor suppresser gene
l Main cause of death in FAP and Gardner’s pa&ents s/p colectomy is periampullary neoplasia; next are desmoid tumors
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
49
97
l Turcot's = FAP w/ CNS malignancies l Lynch Syndrome = Hereditary Non-‐Polyposis Colorectal Cancer (HNPCC). AD, incomplete penetrance, R-‐sided CRCs, beLer prognosis than FAP l Increased risk of ovarian, endometrial, breast, gastric,
ampullary CA l Caused by muta&ons in DNA mismatch-‐repair genes

CASE #8
l 59 y/o Chinese woman recently immigrated to US with 4 months of progressive dyspepsia, described as a periumbilical gnawing or fullness
l 12 lb weight loss and early sa&ety l EGD reveals diffuse gastric atrophy and a 1.5cm ulcer in the fundus with exophy&c edges l Ulcer biopsies – granula&on &ssue l Gastric body biopsies – organisms consistent with H
pylori

99
CASE #8 Which of the following is the best approach at this Eme?
1. Treat for H pylori, then repeat EGD
2. Treat for H pylori, repeat EGD if symptoms persist
3. Treat for H pylori, check UGIS if symptoms persist
4. Treat for H pylori, no need to repeat EGD
5. PPI BID, no need to treat for H pylori if symptoms resolve

CASE #8
l Proximal loca&on, H pylori, recent Asian immigrant, exophy&c margins concerning for malignancy
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
52
103
CASE #8
l All gastric ulcers require repeat endoscopy aPer medical treatment to confirm healing and exclude neoplasia
l Pa&ent with mul&ple, small, antral ulcers, especially with known risk factors (such as NSAIDs) is the excep&on
l Repeat EGD not required for typical duodenal ulcers, as cancer risk is very low
ASGE Standards of Prac&ce CommiLee. Gastrointest Endosc 2010; 71(4): 663-‐8.
104
Gastric cancer
l Risk factors: H pylori, achlorhydria (par&al gastrectomy, atrophic gastri&s), intes&nal metaplasia, adenomatous gastric polyps, smoking, alcohol abuse
l Majority is adenocarcinoma l Gastric lymphoma is the most common site of extranodal lymphoma
l MALT lymphoma: related to H pylori, can oPen be cured with HP eradica&on alone
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
53
105
Esophageal cancer
l Esophageal adenocarcinoma risk factors: male gender, Caucasian, BarreL’s, smoking, obesity, alcohol abuse
l Squamous cell esophageal cancer risk factors: alcohol abuse, smoking, caus&c inges&on, achalasia, tylosis, dietary nitrates
l Stage with CT scan à endoscopic ultrasound if no mets on CT
106
l Very uncommon, but can include adenocarcinoma, carcinoid, GIST, lymphoma
l Risk factors: celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, familial polyposis, HIV (lymphoma)
Small bowel cancer

54
107
PancreaEc cancer
l Incidence increasing, now the 4th leading cause of cancer death in US (lung, colon, breast)
l Risk factors: smoking, alcohol abuse, chronic pancrea&&s
l Mainly adenocarcinoma, 70% in pancrea&c head l Systemic manifesta&ons of Panc CA: polyarthri&s, subcutaneous fat necrosis, migratory thrombophlebi&s
108
Other pancreaEc cancers
l IPMN, cystadenocarcinoma, neuroendocrine l Islet cell tumors:
l insulinomas → hypoglycemia l glucagonomas → hyperglycemia & rash (necroly&c migratory erythema)
l gastrinoma → pep&c ulcer disease, diarrhea l VIPoma → watery diarrhea, hypokalemia
UCSF, Department of Medicine, CME
55
PancreaEc cysts
l Serous cystadenoma (or carcinoma), mucinous cystadenoma (or carcinoma), IPMN, pseudocysts
l Common incidentalomas
109
PancreaEc cysts – new guidelines
l High risk features: >3 cm in size, solid component, dilated PD
l 0-‐1 high-‐risk feature: MRI in 1 year then q2 years x 2
l >1 high-‐risk feature: EUS with FNA l If EUS without concerning features à MRI l If lesion in tail, easier to resect surgically
