Hepatic Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Tumor Mimicking Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms, and liver PEComas are extremely rare. They are usually discovered incidentally, and diagnostic pitfalls are frequent owing to similar imaging characteristics to other liver neoplasms. We present a patient whose evaluation was consistent with a right-sided hepatocellular carcinoma for which right hepatectomy was performed.

Ex Situ In Vivo Technique of Spleen-Preserving Splenic Hilar Lymph Node Dissection in Operable Proximal Gastric Adenocarcinoma.

D2 gastrectomy is the globally accepted standard surgical procedure for operable gastric cancer, and lymph node (LN) dissection is considered as the critical part of radical surgery and closely related to the prognosis. The splenic hilar LN (SHLN) or level 10 are to be removed during standard D2 total gastrectomy. In situ and ex situ spleen-preserving lymphadenectomies have been the most common dissection approaches for SHLNs.

Congenital Anomalies of the Pancreas: Various Clinical Manifestations and Their Impact on Pancreatic Diseases and Outcomes.

Background And Objective: Congenital anomalies of the pancreas are relatively uncommon. Most of these are asymptomatic and are detected incidentally, but can present with a variety of clinical manifestations like pancreatitis, duodenal obstruction, biliary obstruction, and rarely malignancy. Here in our study, we describe various congenital anomalies of the pancreas associated with various clinical manifestations, its management strategies, and outcomes.

Clinical Outcomes among Asymptomatic or Mildly Symptomatic COVID-19 Patients in an Isolation Facility in Chennai, India.

Globally, India has reported the third highest number of COVID-19 cases. Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu state, witnessed a huge surge in COVID-19 cases, resulting in the establishment of isolation facilities named COVID Care Center (CCC). In our study, we describe the demographic, epidemiological, and clinical characteristics; clinical progression; and outcome of 1,263 asymptomatic/mildly symptomatic COVID-19 patients isolated in one such CCC between May 4, 2020 and June 4, 2020.
