Surgical margin status outcome of intraoperative indocyanine green fluorescence-guided laparoscopic hepatectomy in liver malignancy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Hepatectomy stands as a curative management for liver cancer. The critical factor for minimizing recurrence rate and enhancing overall survival of liver malignancy is to attain a negative margin hepatic resection. Recently, Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging has been proven implemental in aiding laparoscopic liver resection, enabling real-time tumor identification and precise liver segmentation.

Are only a few hours adequate for hospitalisation following mini-incision open appendectomy in paediatric patients?

Background: A very short hospital length of stay following an open appendectomy in children with acute simple appendicitis has never been mentioned yet in the literature. The authors reviewed the outcome of these paediatric patients who were treated with the open technique.

Materials And Methods: In this analytical cohort observational study, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of the 115 consecutive patients who underwent open appendectomy from June 2017 to July 2021.

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, lymphoma, and squamous cell carcinoma of hypopharynx; A case report of three primary cancers in one patient.

Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are rarely found and the majority of PNETs are nonfunctioning. At present, a patient with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET), lymphoma, and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) occurring simultaneously has not been reported. We presented all these three primary cancers in a same patient.

Axillary and elbow lymph node metastasis arising after complete excision of microcystic adnexal carcinoma of a hand: A rare presentation.

Introduction: Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC), a malignant transformation of adnexal structures, constitutes a rare locally aggressive malignancy of skin. Generally, the disease is associated with local invasion and distant metastases are extremely rare. We presented a case of MAC with distant metastasis after adequate wide excision.

A challenge in diagnosis and management of ulcerative colitis in elderly patient with atypical presentation: A reported case.

Introduction: Recognition of elderly-onset ulcerative colitis (UC) remains poor as the differential diagnosis in older patients with acute abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea is extensive and UC is generally not the obvious cause. A typical presentation in an elderly patient with acute severe UC can mimic surgical abdomen.

Presentation Of Case: An 80-year-old female had been presented with high grade fever, abdominal pain and diarrhoea.

A giant jejunal gastrointestinal stromal tumor misconceived as pancreatic cystic neoplasm: A case report.

Introduction: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), although not common in gastrointestinal (GI) tumors, constitute the most frequent mesenchymal tumors of the GI tract. This report describes a patient with a large sporadic GIST at proximal jejunum that mimicked the pancreatic cystic neoplasm.

Case Presentation: We report a 59-year-old female patient with unexplained weight loss and palpable left upper quadrant abdominal mass for 6 months.

Tuberculous peritonitis in a cerebral palsy patient: A challenge in diagnosis and management.

Introduction: Diagnosis of tuberculous peritonitis (TBP) in a normal person, although possible, is often difficult to make because of its non-specific symptoms and signs. However, establishing a diagnosis of TBP in a patient with cerebral palsy (CP) does not seem to be possible due to impaired mental development accompanied by communication problems.

Presentation Of Case: A 19-year-old spastic man diagnosed with CP presented with fever and a nonverbal complaint of abdominal pain.
