Introduction.
This study examined whether magnifying endoscopy with NBI observation (ME-NBI) could be useful selecting the appropriate treatment for submucosal invasive cancer (SM cancer).
Patients and Methods.
We analyzed 515 cases of colon tumors excised endoscopically or surgically.
We classified capillary network pattern into four types according to the degree of dilatation, irregularity, and distribution of microcapillary features.
Results.
The comparison of capillary pattern and histological features revealed microcapillary networks by using confocal laser-scanning microscopy and ME-NBI in intramucosal lesion or SM cancer with remnant neoplastic glands at the superficial layer.
In contrast, the network was absent in SM cancer with desmoplastic reactions, which invaded deeper into the submucosal layer.
Conclusions.
The remaining microcapillary network is designed to maintain the architecture of neoplastic glands.
Consequently, loss of this network could correlate with depth of tumor invasion and desmoplastic reaction.
Therefore, we can decide the appropriate treatment by using ME-NBI method.
