The Most Significant Factor Affecting Gait and Postural Balance in Patients' Activities of Daily Living Following Corrective Surgery for Deformity of the Adult Spine.

: Gait ability and spinal postural balance affect ADL in patients who underwent adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. However, it is still unclear how to determine what the cause is. This study was done to investigate various factors affecting gait, postural balance and activities of daily living (ADL) in patients who were operated on for ASD over a period of one year, following corrective surgery.

[A Case of Early Gastric Cancer with Adachi Type Ⅵ Vascular Anomaly Treated by Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy].

We report a case of early gastric cancer with Adachi Type Ⅵ vascular anomaly treated by laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

Preoperative MDCT revealed Adachi Type Ⅵ vascular anomaly, where the hepatic artery does not appear at the superior border of the pancreas.

[Analysis of Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting during Chemotherapy for Gastric Cancer].

Background: Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting(CINV)are typical side effects caused by chemotherapy. We analyzed CINV during first-line chemotherapy for gastric cancer.

Materials And Method: Thirty-one patients who received first-line chemotherapy for gastric cancer were retrospectively assessed for CINV.

[Postoperative Gastric Metastasis from Needle Tract Seeding after Using of EUS-FNA for Pancreatic Body Cancer-A Case Report].

A 67-year-old woman with a pancreatic cancer diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration(EUS- FNA)was underwent distal pancreatectomy. Two years and 10 months after the operation, a computed tomography scan revealed a tumor in the posterior wall of the lower body of the stomach. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed a 15 mm-sized submucosal tumor on the posterior wall of the angular region, and its biopsy showed tubular adenocarcinoma that it was resembling the resected pancreatic cancer.

[A Case of Advanced Gastric Cancer Successfully Treated with mFOLFOX6 Therapy].

We report a case of advanced gastric cancer that was successfully treated with mFOLFOX6 therapy. A 78-year-old man presented to our hospital with a chief complaint of weight loss. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy(EGD)and computed tomography( CT)revealed the presence of type 3 advanced gastric cancer with distant lymph node metastasis and peritoneal dissemination.

Coexisting primary tumors from esophageal cancer and myelodysplastic syndromes: A case report.

This is the first report of the double primary cancer of esophageal cancer (EC) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) treated without esophagectomy. Previously reported cases of the double cancer mostly describe secondary MDS arising after treatment for EC. The double primary cancer was manageable with close follow-ups for possible recurrence.
