It's amazing how such a small Dieulafoy's lesion in the colon can cause so much bleeding.

Pro Tips for @Olympus_Corp PolyLoop

1️⃣ Close sheath/hook & advance collar at SAME TIME

2️⃣ Ensure there is metal exposed before deploying loop to avoid mis-deploying (eg, stuck around polyp 😬)

Ever use @OlympusGI PolyLoop & get frustrated when it fails?

Need a better device!

Big clots are still a big problem in modern endoscopy. Here is a method to turn a flexible/rigidizing overtube into a large suction attachment to evacuate clots rapidly from the stomach.

We still live in the world of the "knocker uppers", only now they have become phones rather than people.

And so the ubiquity of alarm clocks, something without which life now seems unimaginable, is emblematic of the evolution from a Pre-Industrial to an Industrial World.

Learned and tried this elegant technique for PEG ostomy site closure published by @allie_schulman

https://t.co/iReLlHA0IL

Such a simple and easy to do technique that doesn't require advanced training. Was very satisfying to see the end result.

[Yousef Fazel @YouseffazelMD]

@muddasir_ayazMD Sounds good I like it. Ill start doing it this way starting tomorrow.

🤔Why does the diagnosis of Streptococcus bovis bacteremia immediately raise the specter of colon cancer?

If colon cancer leads to barrier disruption and translocation of bacteria into the blood, shouldn't E. coli bacteremia raise the same concern?

Is S. bovis unique?
