Enhancing Precision in Rectal Cancer Care: Unravelling the Correlation Between MRI Locoregional Staging and Prognostic Factors, With Post-resection Pathology.

Introduction Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) serves as a pivotal tool in the preoperative assessment of rectal cancer. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of preoperative MRI pelvis in rectal cancer for locoregional staging, circumferential margin (CRM+), and vascular invasion (V1) with postoperative histopathological findings. Methods All patients who underwent preoperative staging MRI pelvis scanning for histology-proven primary rectal adenocarcinoma between January 2020 and July 2022 were included in this study.

A Simple Technique Using Peri-Prosthetic Irrigation Improves Implant Salvage Rates in Immediate Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction.

: Implant-related complications leading to implant loss contribute to major morbidity in immediate breast reconstruction (IBR). Various techniques have been advocated to improve rates of reconstruction salvage. The objective of our study was to assess if a peri-prosthetic irrigation system was an effective adjunct to the conventional wash-out technique in improving reconstruction salvage rates.

Early rehabilitation after surgery program versus conventional care during perioperative period in patients undergoing laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of early rehabilitation after surgery program (ERAS) in patients undergoing laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy.

Materials And Methods: This is a study where 47 patients who are undergoing lap assisted total gastrectomy are selected. Twenty-two (n = 22) patients received enhanced recovery programme (ERAS) management and rest twenty-five (n = 25) conventional management during the perioperative period.

Gardner's syndrome, a rare combination in surgical practice.

A 45-year-old man presented to the emergency ward with features of intestinal obstruction of 2 days duration. On admission, there was abdominal distension and multiple sessile polyps found on digital rectal examination. In addition, a soft tissue swelling near the elbow and a bony swelling over scalp were noted.

A single centre comparative study of laparoscopic mesh rectopexy versus suture rectopexy.

Aim: The aim of our study is to compare the results of laparoscopic mesh vs. suture rectopexy.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, 70 patients including both male and female of age ranging between 20 years and 65 years (mean 42.

Primary amelanotic melanoma of the rectum mimicking adenocarcinoma.

Patient: Male, 55 FINAL DIAGNOSIS: Melanoma Symptoms: Worsening constipation • tenesmus • weight loss

Medication: - Clinical Procedure: Chemoradiation therapy Specialty: Oncology.

Objective: Challenging differential diagnosis.

Background: Malignant melanoma is usually readily diagnosed by the presence of melanin granules.

Duodenal adenocarcinoma masked by acute cholecystitis and peptic ulcer disease.

We report a case of duodenal adenocarcinoma, who presented to the emergency ward, with features of acute cholecystitis and peptic ulcer disease. Ultrasonography and upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy failed to pick up duodenal pathology, previously two times. Only third time endoscopy showed circumferential thickening of first and second part of the duodenum.

Unusual site and uncommon presentation of epidermoid cyst: a rare case report and review of literature.

Epidermoid cyst of gastrointestinal tract is very rare, and only a few cases of epidermoid cyst of the caecum have been reported in the literature. We report the first case of epidermoid cyst of the caecum in an elderly man, mimicking mesenteric cyst clinically. It was treated by laparoscopic excision of the cyst.
