Purpose: Rapid weight loss that often occurs after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has been linked to an increased risk of gallstone formation. This study aimed to investigate whether ursodeoxycholic acid could be an effective alternative treatment for gallstone dissolution, potentially offering a nonsurgical option for patients requiring gallstone removal.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 88 patients who underwent LSG and subsequently developed gallstones between 2017 and 2023.
Background: Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are rare entities. Generally, they can be localized anywhere in the gastrointestinal or hepatobiliary tract. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the effect of tumor location on prognosis in patients with GEP-NET undergoing surgery.

To evaluate the effects of TXA use on clinical outcomes in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) by comparing TXA use at the beginning of induction with TXA use at the end of surgery and placebo use.
Materials And Methods: Between February 2022 and August 2022, 177 patients were randomized into three groups: TXA administered at the beginning of induction (TXAI), TXA administered at the end of surgery (TXAP), and placebo groups.
Objective: Mammary Paget's disease (MPD) is a rare presentation type of breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological and imaging features affecting the invasive component, loco-regional recurrence, prognosis, and survival of MPD.
Methods: Patients who had undergone surgery due to MPD in a 10-year period were included.
Introduction: The present study aims to determine the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) in predicting a pathological response of molecular subtypes of breast cancer to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients with breast cancer who were operated after NAC between January 2018 and May 2020. Radiological responses were evaluated as per the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) and changes in contrast enhancement patterns on MRI and the classification of PET Response Criteria in Solid Tumors (PERCIST) on PET-CT.
