Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is a rare but clinically significant malignancy that develops in the remaining part of the stomach after partial gastrectomy. In terms of diagnosis, therapy, and prognosis, it represents special difficulties. Although the precise cause of RGC is still unknown, several factors have been identified as potential risk factors, including Helicobacter pylori infection, prior gastric surgery, postoperative complications, and patient-related factors. Recent studies have given insight into certain genetic mutations, chromosomal abnormalities, and molecular path....[more]

Background: Surgery for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is indicated according to the international consensus guidelines (ICG), but ICG frequently overestimates invasive cancer. Utility of 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) to differentiate invasive carcinoma (i-IPMC) from dysplasia is not well recognized.

Methods: Patients who underwent pancreatectomy for pathologically confirmed IPMN at our institution between 2008 and 2022 were evaluated. For the comparison the patien....[more]

Background/Aim: Major complications of biliary surgery, such as laparoscopic cholecystectomy, include bile duct injury. Surgeons with extensive experience in the hepatobiliary system may find it difficult to address severe cases of bile duct injury. The purpose of this research was to assess various therapeutic approaches for bile duct injuries, and to determine which was superior in terms of injury type and presentation time (early or late), as well as improvement in quality of life.

Methods: Research on 80 patients was undertaken at XXX ....[more]

Background: Patients with intractable slow transit constipation (STC) have undergone single-incision clipless laparoscopic total colectomy (SCLTC) with ileorectal anastomosis (IRA) using a functional end-to-end anastomosis (FEEA) through a transsurgical wound under direct vision since 2017 because the rectal contents prevented intestinal reconstruction using double stapling technique. Since 2021, five patients have undergone intra-corporeal ileorectal anastomosis (IIRA) after SCLTC using our original procedure.

Methods: From January 2020 t....[more]

Background: Giant hiatal hernias (GHH) account for 5-10% of all hiatal hernias. Most patients are asymptomatic, while others have debilitating and persistent symptoms affecting quality of life (QoL). GHHs are usually associated with chronic digestive and gastroesophageal reflux symptoms and acute severe complications may occur. Surgical treatment is usually indicated in cases of failure of optimal medical treatment in smaller hernias, symptomatic patients with large hernias and asymptomatic patients with high risk for complications. Surgery is the treatment of cho....[more]

Case report: We present a case of a 63-year-old female who was operated for cervical cancer, underwent post-operative radiochemotherapy and had a locoregional recurrence in an unusual lo....[more]
