Hepatic portal venous gas associated with rapid infusion of postoperative early enteral nutrition after radical total gastrectomy.

Hepatic portal venous gas (HPVG) is a rare and severe imaging manifestation for surgeons, and it may require emergency surgery. We report an unusual case of HPVG in association with the drip rate of enteral nutrition (EN) after laparoscopic-assisted radical total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction. A 66-year-old woman with gastric cancer was admitted to our hospital.

[A 3-year-follow-up study on the prognosis of 'two-route chemotherapy' on liver cancer patients with portal vein tumor thrombus].

Objective: To study the achievements and safety of Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) associated Portal Vein Chemo-therapy (PVC) per-drug delivery system (DDS) program in preventing the recurrence of hepatic cell cancer (HCC) and Portal Vein Tumor Thrombus (PVTT).

Methods: 97 cases with HCC and PVTT were treated from January 2009 to January 2011. Patients with tumor or tumor thrombus were resected on all the cases and randomly divided into 3 groups.
