Sponsor

Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf

Enrollment

10 participants

Start Date

Dec 6, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility for the treatment of precancerous peri-ampullary FAP polyps in the duodenum using low-thermal argonplasma.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 80 Years

Inclusion Criteria4

  • confirmed FAP disease
  • duodenal polyposis with recommendation of a follow-up EGD in 12 months corresponding to stage III (7-8 points) according to Spigelman
  • presence of duodenal polyps \< 10 mm
  • written Informed Consent

Exclusion Criteria5

  • presence of lesions that are suspicious of the presence of high-grade dysplasia or carcinoma
  • pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • severe general illnesses (permanent ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) III and IV) who do not prognostically benefit from follow-up, life expectancy \< 1 year
  • severe coagulopathy
  • any visible state of duodenal surface that makes APC treatment impossible, e.g. inflammation, stricture, stenosis or scarring changes/scar areas
