Comparison of endoscopic features, pathological diagnosis and histology architecture for patients with the VLE feature of complex glands
| Patient | Endoscopic features | Pathology diagnosis | Histology architecture |
| 1 | Normal-appearing mucosa | IM with HGD | Complex glands without cribriforming |
| 2 | Normal-appearing mucosa | Intramucosal adenocarcinoma (pT1a) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 3 | Abnormal-appearing mucosa | Adenocarcinoma (T1b) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 4 | Normal-appearing mucosa | Intramucosal adenocarcinoma (pT1a) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 5 | Raised mucosa | Intramucosal adenocarcinoma (pT1a) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 6 | Raised mucosa | Adenocarcinoma (T1b) | Complex glands without cribriforming |
| 7 | Normal-appearing mucosa | IM HGD | Complex glands without cribriforming |
| 8 | Abnormal-appearing mucosa | Intramucosal adenocarcinoma (pT1a) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 9 | Abnormal-appearing mucosa | Intramucosal adenocarcinoma (pT1a) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 10 | Raised mucosa | Intramucosal adenocarcinoma (pT1a) | Complex dilated and cribriform glands |
| 11 | Normal-appearing mucosa | Benign gastric cardia | Focally dilated benign gastric pits |
HGD, high-grade dysplasia; IM, intestinal metaplasia.
