A Single Center Experience in Liver Resection and Ablative Techniques: An Analysis of Six Years.

We present our 6-year experience with liver surgery and ablative techniques. Method: An observational retrospective analysis from a prospectively maintained database was performed in our department. All the patients with liver resection, liver resection combined with intraoperative ablative techniques and percutaneous ablative techniques were included from January 1st 2014 to December 31st 2020.

Single Center Experience in Pancreatic Surgery.

We present our department experience in pancreatic surgery over the last 6 years. From its inception the number of pancreatic resections has been continuously growing each year. Method: We performed a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database where we included all the patients with pancreatic resections over the last 6 years.

Surgical Treatment of a Mucinous Cystic Neoplasm in a Young Female Patient - A Case Report.

The major challenge in the evaluation of pancreatic cystic neoplasms is identifying lesions with malignant potential or signs of malignancy. Overall, the risk of malignancy in incidentally detected pancreatic cysts is low. Pancreatic cystic neoplasms with malignant potential are: serous cystic tumors (SCTs), mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs), intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) and solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs).

Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma in a Male Breast - A Rare Case Report.

Primary breast diffuse large B cell lymphoma (PBL) in male patients represents a rare clinical phenomenon and can imitate a breast carcinoma in its clinical presentation, so, therefore, the initial treatment for most patients remains surgery. Prompt diagnosis associating subsequent treatment combining chemotherapy and radiotherapy are of the utmost importance. We herein report a 56 years old male patient diagnosed with diffuse large B cell lymphoma, after clinically presenting with a visible tumor in the left breast and showing no axillary lymphadenopathy.

Solitary Adrenal Metastases from Breast Invasive Ductal Carcinoma.

The usual neoplastic dissease involving suprarenal glands are adrenal metastaes. The majority of suprarenal metastatic disease arise from lung cancer, followed by the stomach and colon cancer, oesophagus, the liver/bile ducts cancer and renal cell carcinoma. Invasive mammary carcinoma usually spreads to the bones, lungs, lymph nodes, liver and the brain.

Resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma: analysis of prognostic factors and the impact of systemic inflammation on long-term outcome.

Introduction: Resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma is the single hope for long-term survival.

Methods: Ninety patients underwent curative intent surgery for hilar cholangiocarcinoma between 1996 and 2012. The potential prognostic factors were assessed by univariate (Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank test) and multivariate analyses (Cox proportional hazards model).
