Brief Summary: In this study, methylene blue (MB) was used as vital nerve staining agent. During gastroenteroscopy, mucosal nerve staining was achieved by endoscopic submucosal injection of MB solution. To observe the staining of nerve fibers, neurons and glial cells in mucosa and submucosa, as well as the morphological changes, density differences and function of mucosal nerve tissues in different gastrointestinal lesions, in order to explore the role of endoscopic vital nerve staining in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal lesions.
Detailed Description: This study is a prospective experimental study. The baseline data of the patients were recorded objectively: sex, age, vital signs, body weight, some laboratory examination results (blood routine, liver function, blood coagulation function and electrolytes, etc.) and related medical history (comorbidities, treatment history and life history). Mucosal nerve staining was achieved by endoscopic submucosal injection of methylene blue (MB) solution. The following features were identified and then compared between normal, adenoma and neoplastic mucosa on magnifying endoscopy images in vivo: nerve morphology (straight or irregular), nerve diameter, branching patterns and nerve density. Immunohistochemistry was used to further confirm the presence and to study the morphology of neural structures (PGP9.5 and GFAP staining) and neural attribute (VIP, nNOS, TH, ChAT and SOM staining) on tumor, adenoma and normal mucosal sections.The aim of this study was to explore the role of MB based topical submucosal chromoendoscopy in the identification of neural architecture and special morphology in normal gastrointestinal mucosa, adenomas and malignant lesions during routine endoscopy.
