At a population level, the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE), the European Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group (EHMSG), and the European Society of Pathology (ESP) suggest endoscopic screening for gastric cancer (and precancerous conditions) in high-risk regions (age-standardized rate [ASR] > 20 per 100 000 person-years) every 2 to 3 years or, if cost-effectiveness has been proven, in intermediate risk regions (ASR 10-20 per 100 000 person-years) every 5 years, but not in low-risk regions (ASR < 10).ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend that irrespective of country of origin, individual gastric risk assessment and stratification of precancerous conditions is recommended for first-time gastroscopy. ESGE/EHMSG/ESP suggest that gastric cancer screening or surveillance in asymptomatic individuals over 80 should be discontinued or not started, and that patients' comorbidities should be considered when treatment of superficial lesions is planned.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend that a high quality endoscopy including the use of virtual chromoendoscopy (VCE), after proper training, is performed for screening, diagnosis, and staging of precancerous conditions (atrophy and intestinal metaplasia) and lesions (dysplasia or cancer), as well as after endoscopic therapy. VCE should be used to guide the sampling site for biopsies in the case of suspected neoplastic lesions as well as to guide biopsies for diagnosis and staging of gastric precancerous conditions, with random biopsies to be taken in the absence of endoscopically suspected changes. When there is a suspected early gastric neoplastic lesion, it should be properly described (location, size, Paris classification, vascular and mucosal pattern), photodocumented, and two targeted biopsies taken.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP do not recommend routine performance of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET)-CT prior to endoscopic resection unless there are signs of deep submucosal invasion or if the lesion is not considered suitable for endoscopic resection.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for differentiated gastric lesions clinically staged as dysplastic (low grade and high grade) or as intramucosal carcinoma (of any size if not ulcerated or ≤ 30 mm if ulcerated), with EMR being an alternative for Paris 0-IIa lesions of size ≤ 10 mm with low likelihood of malignancy.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP suggest that a decision about ESD can be considered for malignant lesions clinically staged as having minimal submucosal invasion if differentiated and ≤ 30 mm; or for malignant lesions clinically staged as intramucosal, undifferentiated and ≤ 20 mm; and in both cases with no ulcerative findings.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommends patient management based on the following histological risk after endoscopic resection: Curative/very low-risk resection (lymph node metastasis [LNM] risk < 0.5 %-1 %): en bloc R0 resection; dysplastic/pT1a, differentiated lesion, no lymphovascular invasion, independent of size if no ulceration and ≤ 30 mm if ulcerated. No further staging procedure or treatment is recommended.Curative/low-risk resection (LNM risk < 3 %): en bloc R0 resection; lesion with no lymphovascular invasion and: a) pT1b, invasion ≤ 500 µm, differentiated, size ≤ 30 mm; or b) pT1a, undifferentiated, size ≤ 20 mm and no ulceration. Staging should be completed, and further treatment is generally not necessary, but a multidisciplinary discussion is required. Local-risk resection (very low risk of LNM but increased risk of local persistence/recurrence): Piecemeal resection or tumor-positive horizontal margin of a lesion otherwise meeting curative/very low-risk criteria (or meeting low-risk criteria provided that there is no submucosal invasive tumor at the resection margin in the case of piecemeal resection or tumor-positive horizontal margin for pT1b lesions [invasion ≤ 500 µm; well-differentiated; size ≤ 30 mm, and VM0]). Endoscopic surveillance/re-treatment is recommended rather than other additional treatment. High-risk resection (noncurative): Any lesion with any of the following: (a) a positive vertical margin (if carcinoma) or lymphovascular invasion or deep submucosal invasion (> 500 µm from the muscularis mucosae); (b) poorly differentiated lesions if ulceration or size > 20 mm; (c) pT1b differentiated lesions with submucosal invasion ≤ 500 µm with size > 30 mm; or (d) intramucosal ulcerative lesion with size > 30 mm. Complete staging and strong consideration for additional treatments (surgery) in multidisciplinary discussion.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP suggest the use of validated endoscopic classifications of atrophy (e. g. Kimura-Takemoto) or intestinal metaplasia (e. g. endoscopic grading of gastric intestinal metaplasia [EGGIM]) to endoscopically stage precancerous conditions and stratify the risk for gastric cancer.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend that biopsies should be taken from at least two topographic sites (2 biopsies from the antrum/incisura and 2 from the corpus, guided by VCE) in two separate, clearly labeled vials. Additional biopsy from the incisura is optional.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend that patients with extensive endoscopic changes (Kimura C3 + or EGGIM 5 +) or advanced histological stages of atrophic gastritis (severe atrophic changes or intestinal metaplasia, or changes in both antrum and corpus, operative link on gastritis assessment/operative link on gastric intestinal metaplasia [OLGA/OLGIM] III/IV) should be followed up with high quality endoscopy every 3 years, irrespective of the individual's country of origin.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend that no surveillance is proposed for patients with mild to moderate atrophy or intestinal metaplasia restricted to the antrum, in the absence of endoscopic signs of extensive lesions or other risk factors (family history, incomplete intestinal metaplasia, persistent H. pylori infection). This group constitutes most individuals found in clinical practice.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend H. pylori eradication for patients with precancerous conditions and after endoscopic or surgical therapy.ESGE/EHMSG/ESP recommend that patients should be advised to stop smoking and low-dose daily aspirin use may be considered for the prevention of gastric cancer in selected individuals with high risk for cardiovascular events.

Cervical cancer (CC) is the fourth most common malignant tumor in women worldwide. Detecting different biomarkers together on single cells by novel method mass cytometry could contribute to more precise screening. Liquid-based cytology (LBC) cervical samples were collected (N = 53) from women categorized as normal and precancerous lesions. Human papillomavirus was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction, while simultaneous examination of the expression of 29 proteins was done by mass cytometry (CyTOF). Differences in cluster abundances were assessed with Spearman's rank correlation as well as high dimensional data analysis (t-SNE, FlowSOM). Cytokeratin (ITGA6, Ck5, Ck10/13, Ck14, Ck7) expression patterns allowed determining the presence of different cells in the cervical epithelium. FlowSOM analysis enabled to phenotype cervical cells in five different metaclusters and find new markers that could be important in CC screening. The markers Ck18, Ck18, and CD63 (Metacluster 3) showed significantly increasing associated with severity of the precancerous lesions (Spearman rank correlation rho 0.304, p = 0.0271), while CD71, KLF4, LRIG1, E-cadherin, Nanog and p53 (Metacluster 1) decreased with severity of the precancerous lesions (Spearman rank correlation rho -0.401, p = 0.0029). Other metaclusters did not show significant correlation, but metacluster 2 (Ck17, MCM, MMP7, CD29, E-cadherin, Nanog, p53) showed higher abundance in low- and high-grade intraepithelial lesion cases. CyTOF appears feasible and should be considered when examining novel biomarkers on cervical LBC samples. This study enabled us to characterize different cells in the cervical epithelium and find markers and populations that could distinguish precancerous lesions.

The main aim of our study was to investigate the specific contribution of a 9-valent human papillomavirus vaccine (9vHPV) to the recurrence risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) in women vaccinated post-excision. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective monocentric cohort study in women aged 22-49 years undergoing conization between 2014 and 2023. The 9vHPV-vaccinated women were matched to unvaccinated women for age and follow-up duration in a 1:2 ratio to eliminate allocation bias. The risk of CIN2+ recurrence was estimated by the incidence rate ratio using Poisson regression with adjustment for comorbidities, smoking status, nulliparity, CIN grade, positive cone margin, and HPV genotypes. The CIN2+ recurrence rates in 147 women enrolled in the analysis were 18 and 2 cases per 100,000 person-days for unvaccinated and vaccinated women, respectively, during a mean follow-up period of 30 months (±22 months). A reduction in CIN2+ recurrences by 90% (95% confidence interval: 12-99%) was documented in 9vHPV-vaccinated participants compared to women undergoing only surgical excision. Moreover, vaccinated women with a positive cone margin showed a 42% (though non-significant) reduction in relapse (p = .661). Full post-conization vaccination with the 9vHPV contributed to an additional reduction in the risk of CIN2+ recurrence. This finding is consistent with current knowledge and suggests a high adjuvant effect of the 9vHPV vaccine.

Recent literature sources suggest that 15-20% of all malignant diseases have a viral aetiology. About 5% of these are caused by the human papillomavirus. The presence of papillomavirus is one of the strongest risk factors for development of a cervical pre-cancerous lesion and subsequent cervical cancer. The presented review provides a brief summary and characterisation of risk factors that influence spontaneous and post-interventional regression and persistence of papillomavirus in the cervical area.

INTRODUCTION: Thanks to mammographic screening and the improvement of breast cancer diagnostics, the detection of precancers is also increasing. They are defined as morphological changes of the mammary gland which are more likely to cause cancer. The evaluated precancers are atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) and radial scar. METHODOLOGY: In the period 1. 1. 2018-31. 12. 2022, we performed 1,302 planned operations for breast disease at the Surgical Clinic of Teaching Hospital Plzeň, of which 30 (2%) were precancer operations. ADH was confirmed 11×, LCIS 8×, and a radical scar 11×. The average age of the patients in all three groups was 56 years (27-85). Precancer was diagnosed 8× only by sonography, 3× by mammography and 19× by a combination of both methods. Subsequently, a puncture biopsy was always completed. We performed 28 tumor excisions with intraoperative biopsy and 2 mastectomies. RESULTS: In the case of ADH from puncture biopsy, ADH was confirmed intraoperatively 8×, DCIS was diagnosed 2×, and mucinous carcinoma 1×. In LCIS, no tumor was found by intraoperative biopsy 4×, LCIS was confirmed 1×, lobular invasive carcinoma was diagnosed 1×, mastectomy was performed 2× without intraoperative biopsy. In the radial scar, ADH was diagnosed 3×, sclerosing adenosis 6×, DCIS 1×, invasive carcinoma 1×. After the final histological processing of the samples, there was an increase in diagnosed carcinomas. In ADH, DCIS was confirmed 3×, DIC 2×, and mucinous carcinoma 1×. In LCIS, LIC was diagnosed 3×. In the radial scar, DCIS was confirmed 1×, and invasive carcinoma remain 1×. Thus, carcinoma was diagnosed in 11 patients (37%) thanks to the surgical solution. No patient underwent axillary node surgery. All 11 patients subsequently underwent oncological treatment, always a combination of radiotherapy and hormone therapy. All patients are alive, 10 patients are in complete remission of the disease, one with DCIS experienced a local recurrence after 4 years. CONCLUSION: Surgical treatment of precancers of the breast makes sense, DCIS or even invasive cancer is often hidden in addition to precancer. Thanks to the surgical solution, the cancer was detected in time.

Pancreatic carcinoma is a relatively common malignant tumor with increasing incidence and mortality. The tumor is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage and generally has a poor prognosis, with only 5% of patients surviving 5 years from the time of diagnosis. The stage of the disease at the time of diagnosis is a crucial factor for the prognosis; 25% of patients with localized tumors survive 3 years from diagnosis, compared to only 1% of those with generalized tumors. Radical surgical removal of the tumor (partial or total pancreatectomy) is a key factor in improving survival. Therefore, the topic is highly relevant to surgeons. Statistics on pancreatic carcinoma mainly focus on ductal adenocarcinoma, which is the most common and least favorable malignant tumor of the pancreas. This review focuses on ductal adenocarcinoma, its variants, and precancerous lesions. The article summarizes information from the latest WHO classification of 2019, which was released 11 years after the previous edition. Compared to the previous version, this new WHO classification introduced rather minor changes in the field of ductal adenocarcinoma. The delineation of rare variants of ductal adenocarcinoma is justified based on genetic and morphological similarities and clinical relevance, as individual subtypes significantly differ in prognosis. The article also includes a description of macroscopic and microscopic precursors of ductal adenocarcinoma and their definitions. Genetic and immunohistochemical differential diagnostic aspects are briefly discussed, as these are more relevant to pathologists than to surgeons.

A collaboration of multidisciplinary experts from the European Association of Dermato-Oncology, the European Dermatology Forum, the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, and the European Union of Medical Specialists was formed to develop European recommendations on AK diagnosis and treatment, based on current literature and expert consensus. This guideline addresses the epidemiology, diagnostics, risk stratification and treatments in immunocompetent as well as immunosuppressed patients. Actinic keratoses (AK) are potential precursors of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) and display typical histopathologic and immunohistochemical features of this malignancy in an early stage. They can develop into cSSC in situ and become invasive in a low percentage of cases. AK is the most frequent neoplasia in white populations, frequently occurring within a cancerous field induced by ultraviolet radiation. Since it cannot be predicted, which lesion will progress to cSCC and when treatment is usually recommended. The diagnosis of AK and field cancerization is made by clinical examination. Dermatoscopy, confocal microscopy, optical coherence tomography or line-field confocal-OCT can help in the differential diagnosis of AK and other skin neoplasms. A biopsy is indicated in clinically and/or dermatoscopically suspicious and/or treatment-refractory lesions. The choice of treatment depends on patients' and lesion characteristics. For single non-hyperkeratotic lesions, the treatment can be started upon patient's request with destructive treatments or topical treatments. For multiple lesions, field cancerization treatment is advised with topical treatments and photodynamic therapy. Preventive measures such as sun protection, self-examination and repeated field cancerization treatments of previously affected skin areas in high-risk patients are advised.

OBJECTIVE: The substantial material and legislative investments in establishing and maintaining cytological screening in the Czech Republic represent barriers to a direct transition to primary HPV screening. Therefore, the LIBUSE project was implemented to test the efficacy of phasing in HPV DNA testing as a co-test to cytology in routine screening of women >30 years of age. METHODS: Women aged 30 to 60 years who underwent regular annual Pap smears were co-tested for HPV DNA with selective 16/18 genotyping at 3-year intervals. All HPV 16/18-positive cases and/or cases with a severe abnormality in cytology were sent for colposcopy; HPV non-16/18-positive cases and LSILs were graded using p16/Ki67 dual-stain cytology, and positive cases were sent for colposcopy. RESULTS: Overall, 2409 patients were included. After the first combined screening (year 'zero') visit, 7.4% of women were HPV-positive and 2.0% were HPV16/18-positive; only 8 women had severe Pap smear abnormalities. Triage by dual staining was positive in 21.9% of cases (28/128). Biopsy confirmed 34 high-grade precancer lesions. At the second combined visit (year 'three'), the frequency of HPV infection (5.3% vs. 7.4%) frequency of HPV16/18 (1.1% vs. 2.0%), referrals for colposcopy (35 vs. 83), and biopsy verified high-grade lesions (5 vs. 34) were significantly lower (all P ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION: The addition of HPV DNA testing with selective genotyping of HPV16/18 to existing cytology screening significantly increased the safety of the program. The gradual introduction of HPV testing was well received by healthcare professionals and patients, and can facilitate transformation of the cytology-based screening.

OBJECTIVE: The main aim was to determine the overall vaccine effectiveness (VE) against recurrent cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) including specific VE associated with timing of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination using data from published studies. DESIGN: Meta-analysis and meta-regression. DATA SOURCES: A computerised literature search was undertaken using the MEDLINE, EMBASE, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, Derwent Drug File, ProQuest Science and Technology, Cochrane and MedRxiv databases. To be eligible, the studies, with no language restrictions, had to be published between 1 January 2001 and 25 May 2023. REVIEW METHODS: Included were studies with an unvaccinated reference group that assessed CIN2+ recurrence irrespective of the HPV genotype in women undergoing conisation provided. The present study was carried out in compliance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses and Meta-analysis Of Observational Studies in Epidemiology guidelines. The risk of study bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation guidelines were used to assess the strength of evidence for the primary outcome. Data synthesis was conducted using meta-analysis and meta-regression. RESULTS: Out of a total of 14 322 publications, 20 studies with a total of 21 estimates were included. The overall VE against recurrent CIN2+ irrespective of the HPV genotype achieved 69.5% (95% CI: 54.7% to 79.5%). While the HPV vaccine valency, follow-up duration, type of study including its risk of bias had no effect on VE, the highest VE of 78.1% (95% CI: 68.7% to 84.7%) was reported for women receiving their first dose not earlier than the day of excision. This outcome was supported by additional analyses and a VE prediction interval ranging from 67.1% to 85.4%. CONCLUSIONS: The outcome of this meta-analysis and meta-regression convincingly showed the beneficial effect of post-excisional HPV vaccination against CIN2+ recurrence. Studies published to date have been unable to determine whether or not vaccination, completed or initiated before conisation, would be associated with more favourable results. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42022353530.

BACKGROUND: Following the publication of the European consensus statement on standards for essential colposcopy in 2020, the need for standards relating to more complex and challenging colposcopy practice was recognised. These standards relate to colposcopy undertaken in patients identified through cervical screening and tertiary referrals from colposcopists who undertake standard colposcopy only. This set of recommendations provides a review of the current literature and agreement on care for recognised complex cases. With good uptake of human papillomavirus (HPV) immunisation, we anticipate a marked reduction in cervical disease over the next decade. Still, the expert colposcopist will continue to be vital in managing complex cases, including previous cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)/complex screening histories and multi-zonal disease. AIMS: To provide expert guidance on complex colposcopy cases through published evidence and expert consensus. MATERIAL & METHODS: Members of the EFC and ESGO formed a working group to identify topics considered to be the remit of the expert rather than the standard colposcopy service. These were presented at the EFC satellite meeting, Helsinki 2021, for broader discussion and finalisation of the topics. RESULTS & DISCUSSION: The agreed standards included colposcopy in pregnancy and post-menopause, investigation and management of glandular abnormalities, persistent high-risk HPV+ with normal/low-grade cytology, colposcopy management of type 3 transformation zones (TZ), high-grade cytology and normal colposcopy, colposcopy adjuncts, follow-up after treatment with CIN next to TZ margins and follow-up after treatment with CIN with persistent HPV+, and more. These standards are under review to create a final paper of consensus standards for dissemination to all EFC and ESGO members.
