It was a true honor to visit @uabmedicine and give medicine grand rounds in honor of Dr. Basil Hirshowitz. Dr. Hirshowitz's creative read of a Nature paper in the 1950's about fiberoptic cables led him to develop the flexible endoscope.

It is amazing to step back and think of all the lives improved and saved as a result of the invention of the flexible endoscope!

Wonder why Traditional Serrated Adenomas require surveillance after 3 years? Our paper in @AGA_CGH demonstrates TSAs confer increased risk for CRC vs normal colonoscopy with CRC rates similar to advanced adenomas, check out below! @samirguptaGI @dembj13 cghjournal.org/article/S1542…

Thank you to @NBCNews for this article about the @NEJM colonoscopy trial. As I stated, colonoscopy works only if you actually do it! I really hope the media headlines will not deter people from undergoing life-saving cancer screening. @DFarberYoungCRC @DanaFarber

"Colonoscopy only works if you actually go through with it." Dana-Farber's @KimmieNgMD tells @NBCNews why it's still important to undergo #ColorectalCancer screenings, despite a new European study published in @NEJM Read more ➡️ ms.spr.ly/6019d3PfT CC: @DFarberYoungCRC
Colonoscopies may not be as effective as thought, study suggests. Doctors disagree.

A large European study found colonoscopies didn't reduce the risk of colon cancer deaths.

Happy to announce in @BJSurgery the acceptance of our work focused on the preventable proportion of #EOCRC, a collaboration bw #SECOC and #GEOCODE, and developed together with @merydacaalvarez & @frankbalaguer, taking the @DocStanich and @HHampel1 work in @AGA_Gastro as model.

Cold snare is safer and may be just as effective as hot snare for the resection of sporadic nonampullary duodenal adenoma! Check out our new paper in @GIE_Journal! giejournal.org/article/S0016…
Comparison of cold snare and hot snare polypectomy for the resection of sporadic nonampullary...

Comparison of cold snare and hot snare polypectomy for the resection of sporadic nonampullary...

Nonampullary duodenal adenomas can undergo malignant transformation, making endoscopic resection, often by hot snare (HSP) or cold snare polypectomy (CSP), necessary. Although CSP has been shown to...
