Esophageal carcinoma is an aggressive cancer with a poor therapeutic response and a significant risk of recurrence after radical resection. It usually metastasizes to the lung, bones, or liver. Unusual spread can be found in other organs, but only nine cases of pancreatic metastases have been reported in the Medline database.

- Leptospirosis is a widespread bacterium that affects both humans and animals, typically causing mild infections, but in some cases, it can lead to severe conditions like Weil's disease, which involves liver issues and, rarely, complications such as cholecystitis.
- In a case study, a 66-year-old man with symptoms of abdominal pain, fever, and jaundice was initially diagnosed with acute calculous cholecystitis, but further investigation revealed signs of leptospirosis, leading to appropriate treatment before surgery.
- The study highlights that Weil's disease can imitate acute cholecystitis symptoms, emphasizing the need for careful diagnosis and the consideration of leptospirosis in patients with certain risk
Introduction: Bariatric surgery is now widely regarded as the most effective treatment for morbid obesity. It aims to enhance patients' health by achieving long-lasting weight loss, reducing associated comorbidities, and improving their quality of life.
Case Report: The case involves a 51-year-old female patient who underwent sleeve gastrectomy eight years ago to address morbid obesity (Body Mass Index (BMI) = 43).
Purpose: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is the most popular primary bariatric metabolic procedure worldwide but severe complications are still reported, and there is no ideal technique to avoid them. This study analyses the impact of oversewing (OS) and gastropexy (GP) on complication rate, early dyspeptic and late de novo GERD symptoms after LSG.
Material And Method: A case-control study was conducted on patients with obesity who underwent LSG.
At present, obesity, as a part of metabolic syndrome, represents the leading factor for disability, and is correlated with higher inflammation status, morbidity, and mortality. The purpose of our study is to add new insights to the present body of knowledge regarding the correlations between chronic systemic inflammation and severe obesity, which cannot be treated without considering other metabolic syndrome conditions. Biomarkers of high-level chronic inflammation are recognized as important predictors of pro-inflammatory disease.
