Surgical management of a chest wall osteosarcoma with pleural and lung invasion through chest resection and complex reconstruction. Case report.

Osteosarcomas of the ribs are rarely reported but have a high potential for pulmonary metastases. The therapeutic strategies for this disease are not well defined. The primary treatment recommendations include wide resection with clear surgical margins and chest wall reconstruction if needed.

Progressive dysphagia from an esophageal liposarcoma, a complex problem in a challenging setting.

Esophageal lipomatous tumors are extremely rare, and due to their nonspecific clinical manifestations, distinguishing them is nearly impossible without the aid of histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular analysis. Complete resection with clear margins is the treatment of choice to avert metastasis, improve prognosis, and prevent complex complications due to the polyp growth and location. We present the case of a 70-year-old male who presented in 2023 with dysphagia due to an esophageal polyp; surgery was recommended.

Robotic management of superior mesenteric artery syndrome.

Wilkie's syndrome is an unusual cause of upper intestinal obstruction due to mechanical compression of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) to the duodenum, with nonspecific symptoms, whose diagnosis is confirmed by angiotomography. Initially, the treatment is conservative to regain weight and restore mesenteric adipose tissue, associated with postural changes of the patient. If this fails, surgical treatment is indicated, being laparoscopic duodenojejunostomy described as the gold standard.

Revisional surgery for persistent dysphagia plus Roux Y gastric bypass robot-assisted in a patient with obesity. About a case.

This case study presents a female patient with progressive dysphagia for solids, heartburn, and obesity that proved refractory to clinical management. Imagenological diagnosis revealed esophageal stenosis and achalasia. Furthermore, metabolic syndrome was established.
