ENDOSCOPIST-CLINICIAN;
MENDING THE BROKEN LINK
A St. Mary’s perspective
Dr Makanga
Where are we currently?
• 140 scopes per month
• Main indication = dyspepsia
• Main source of patients = OPD
• 2-4 colonoscopies per week
• Main diagnosis = Normal finding
Makanga et al; The Annals of African Surgery, July 2014, Volume 11, Issue 2, Page 35-39
Fig 1. Main findings of UGIEs done
Makanga et al; An Afr Surg, July 2014, Vol 11, Issue 2, Page 35-39

Table 2. Comparison with other studies
**Both esophageal and gastroesophageal junction tumors
Sampled requests…
• Non-specific abdominal pain
• FB sensation; do laryngoscopy and OGD
• On-off heartburn ?GERD*
• Chronic headache and backache…and incidental
epigastric pain/tenderness
• Self request “I have been told I have ulcers”
Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 18th Edition
If your only tool is a hammer, all problems
look like nails…
Author unknown
Sampled challenges…
• Food – full stomach
• Poorly prepared patient/incomplete exam
• Uncooperative patient/declines OGD
• Very sick patient (near comatose), psychiatric,
CP, halo jacket, neck contracture
• Young child < 5 years
The SAGES Manual Fundamentals of Laparoscopy,
Thoracoscopy, and GI Endoscopy, Second Edition
What clinicians like to hear
• Specific and definite diagnosis
• Diagnosis in keeping with clinical presentation
• Precise description of location, grading and
size of lesion*
• Recommendation of way forward
What clinicians don’t like to hear
• Mild gastritis
• Whitish patches on esophagus ? Candidiasis
• Non-specific mucosal changes
• Suspicious nodule/lesion
• Vascular lesion – not biopsied
• 2 tumors (or long tumor >10 cm)
• Normal – clinically correlate
All of us would like to see this…
Grade 2 varices
Esophageal tumor
Candidiasis
GERD (LA 3)
Erosions
Chronic GU
Malignant GU ‘Gastritis’
Duodenal ulcer
But we see this… sometimes…
Questions
• What supports the use of OGD primarily for
epigastric pain?
• Can you rely on a test that is endoluminal to
investigate an entire abdomen?
• Are you prepared for margin of error for a
wrong endoscopic diagnosis?
• Or an unsatisfactory finding?
• How will you handle a surprise finding?
Recommendations
• Referral for OGD if dyspepsia fails to resolve
within 2 weeks of PPI*
• Judicious use of OGD – No broad spectrums
• Contextual interpretation of results
• Liaison with endoscopist if findings are
unsatisfactory
• Role of repeat OGD after Rx period
• Endoscopist to correlate notes and patient?
Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 18th Edition
Questions, comments, additions
and discussions…
Thank you…
