[One Case of Accessory Breast Cancer Complicated by Contralateral Breast Cancer].

We experienced a case of right sided accessory breast cancer complicated by contralateral breast cancer. A 50-year-old woman came to us for an examination because a tumor in her left breast was pointed out at breast cancer screening. A breast MRI confirmed a tumor in her left breast and a tumor continuing from the skin to the subcutis of the right axilla.

Laparoscopy-assisted Distal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer in Elderly Patients: Surgical Outcomes and Prognosis.

Background/aim: Elderly patients usually have various comorbidities. Laparoscopic gastrectomy as a minimally-invasive treatment might be feasible for these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) in elderly patients with gastric cancer by comparing the surgical outcomes and prognosis.

[A Case of Laparoscopic Remnant Gastrojejunal Bypass Surgery for Postoperative Peritoneal Recurrence of Gastric Cancer].

A 77-year-old female case who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with D2 dissection, Billroth I reconstruction for gastric cancer. Since the stage was III A, she received an adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 after surgery. However, about 2 years after surgery, she was referred to our hospital for anorexia and vomiting.

[The Clinical Outcome of Conversion Surgery for Unresectable Gastric Cancers in Our Institution].

Background: In recent years, the development of chemotherapy has been remarkable. Some cases of conversion surgery for unresectable gastric cancer have been reported.

Methods: The clinical outcome of 11 patients with far advanced gastric cancer who underwent conversion surgery in our hospital from January 2013 to May 2017 were analyzed retrospectively.

[A Case Report of Laparoscopy Assisted Distal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer with an Adachi Type VI Anomaly (Group 27)Institution].

We report the case of a 79-year-old man, with gastric cancer detected on upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examination performed by a nearby medical clinic, and referred to our hospital, in April 201X. He was diagnosed with gastric cancer(ML, less, 0- II a+ II c, tub 1-2, cT1bN0M0, cStage I A). We performed laparoscopy assisted distal gastrectomy, D1+lymph node dissection, and Billroth I (B- I )reconstruction.

Successful treatment of refractory complete separation of an esophagojejunal anastomosis after laparoscopic total gastrectomy: a case report.

Background: Anastomotic leakage after total gastrectomy occurs despite improvements in surgical techniques and patient management. Although many cases of dehiscence can be managed non-operatively, major leakage requires a second surgery and can potentially lead to death. Therefore, accurate and immediate diagnosis and treatment are essential.

[Clinical benefit of full-dose gemcitabine for advanced pancreatic cancer refractory to S-1+gemcitabine].

A 62-year-old man with pancreatic body cancer underwent distal pancreatectomy without adjuvant gemcitabine(GEM). Because the pancreatic cancer recurred 4 months after surgery, however, he was treated with combination chemotherapy(S- 1+GEM at 750mg/m2). Unfortunately, this combination regimen was ineffective; therefore S-1 was withdrawn and full-dose GEM was administered as second-line treatment.

[Mild hemophilia A diagnosed at the onset of acute epidural hematoma after lumbar epidural block].

The patient was a 36-year-old man who had been aware of a mild bleeding tendency since childhood, but did not show any history of severe bleeding. After lumbar epidural block was performed for pain caused by lumbar disc herniation, the patient developed paraplegia due to an acute epidural hematoma, and rectovesical disorder. He was admitted to our hospital, and wide fenestration and hematoma evacuation were performed.
