Port-Site Metastasis After Laparoscopic Gastrectomy Extending to the Thigh: A Case Report.

Port-site metastasis (PSM) is rare following laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Previous reports focused on localized lesions treated with excision; contrastingly, case reports describing extensive invasion into the lower extremity skeletal muscles causing deterioration in activities of daily living are nonexistent. A 55-year-old male underwent a laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

A long-term follow-up study of minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy with linear stapled anastomosis.

Background: Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) is increasingly performed to expect lower complication rate compared to open esophagectomy. Studies of minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy (MIILE) with circular staplers have reported better outcomes compared to MIE with cervical anastomosis, but frequent anastomotic complications have also been reported. MIILE with linear staplers is a promising alternative, but the long-term functional and oncological outcomes are uncertain.

Comparison of short-term outcomes between robotic and laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer: a propensity score-matching analysis.

Robotic gastrectomy (RG) is increasingly performed based on expected benefits in short-term outcomes. However, it is still unclear if RG has any advantages over laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG). A retrospective cohort study was performed in patients who underwent minimally invasive gastrectomy between January 2012 and January 2020.

Chronic inguinal pain after laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair for inguinal hernia treated successfully with laparoscopic selective neurectomy: A case report.

Introduction: Laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair is occasionally used for inguinal hernia repair. Here, we report a case of chronic neuropathic pain after laparoscopic IPOM repair for inguinal hernia, which was treated successfully with laparoscopic selective neurectomy.

Presentation Of Case: A 59-year-old man with bilateral inguinal hernia underwent laparoscopic repair.

Neuromuscular abundance of RB1CC1 contributes to the non-proliferating enlarged cell phenotype through both RB1 maintenance and TSC1 degradation.

RB1-inducible coiled-coil 1 (RB1CC1) is a novel tumor suppressor implicated in the regulation of RB1 expression. It is abundant in post-mitotic neuromuscular cells, which are matured and enlarged, but scarce in smaller leukocytes, indicating an association between RB1CC1 status and cell size. To clarify whether RB1CC1 is involved in cell size control, we investigated the contribution of RB1CC1 to the TSC-mTOR pathway, which plays an important role in the control through translational regulation.
