[Complete Response with Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Curative Resection in a Case of Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer That Was Strongly Positive for HER2 with Multiple Liver Metastases].

As a part of community screening, a 64-year-old man underwent gastric fluoroscopy, which revealed abnormalities indicative of a type 3 tumor. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography showed advanced gastric cancer with multiple regional lymph nodes and liver metastases. Chemotherapy was initiated, and after completion of 2 courses of capecitabine (Cape)and oxaliplatin(OHP)therapy, a distalgastrectomy was performed.

Effects of partial hepatic venous congestion on hepatic hemodynamics and histology.

Background/aims: Extensive liver resection potentially causes hepatic venous congestion resulting in critical liver damage. The effects of partial hepatic venous congestion on hepatic hemodynamics and histology were studied.

Methodology: Male Wistar rats underwent hepatic vein ligation of left lateral lobe (35%) or left lateral and median lobes (70%).
