Clinical Pathological and Immunohistochemical Correlations in Gastric Cancer.

Due to its high aggressiveness and polyclonal tumor state, stomach cancer is considered a severe health problem. In this study, we analyzed Her2 and Ki67 in correlation with patient data for the possibility of prognostic factors. The study included 48 cases of gastric tumors that had been surgically treated in a period of five years.

Personalized Decisional Algorithms for Soft Tissue Defect Reconstruction after Abdominoperineal Resection for Low-Lying Rectal Cancers.

Background: Abdominoperineal resection (APR)-the standard surgical procedure for low-lying rectal cancer (LRC)-leads to significant perineal defects, posing considerable reconstruction challenges that, in selected cases, necessitate the use of plastic surgery techniques (flaps).

Purpose: To develop valuable decision algorithms for choosing the appropriate surgical plan for the reconstruction of perineal defects.

Methods: Our study included 245 LRC cases treated using APR.

Laparoscopic Approach to Primary Splenic Cyst: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Splenic cysts are rare benign lesions of the spleen, often asymptomatic and incidentally discovered during imaging studies. While many splenic cysts remain asymptomatic and do not require intervention, surgical management becomes essential in cases of symptomatic cysts, large cysts, or when malignancy cannot be ruled out. Laparoscopic surgery has emerged as a minimally invasive and effective approach for treating splenic cysts, offering advantages such as shorter hospital stays, reduced postoperative pain, and faster recovery.

The Prediction of Peritoneal Carcinomatosis in Patients with Colorectal Cancer Using Machine Learning.

The incidence of colon, rectal, and colorectal cancer is very high, and diagnosis is often made in the advanced stages of the disease. In cases where peritoneal carcinomatosis is limited, patients can benefit from newer treatment options if the disease is promptly identified, and they are referred to specialized centers. Therefore, an essential diagnostic benefit would be identifying those factors that could lead to early diagnosis.
