A rare case of long-term survival of a patient who underwent radical operations for sextuple malignancies.

Multiple cancer patients who achieve long-term survival are sometimes encountered. Multiple carcinogenesis may occur due to genetic or environmental characteristics. We report the case of a 74-year-old woman who was diagnosed with synchronous double carcinoma of the duodenal papilla and gall bladder without clinical symptoms, who underwent postoperative follow-up for familiar adenomatous polyposis coli with multiple colonic adenocarcinomas, ileal adenocarcinoma, left urinary tract neoplasm, and left upper lobe lung adenocarcinoma.

Preoperative Prognostic Nutritional Index is a significant predictive factor for posthepatectomy bile leakage.

Backgrounds/aims: It is known that preoperative nutritional status can influence patient outcomes after hepatectomy. Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) is a useful parameter to reflect patient outcomes undergoing gastro-intestinal surgery. The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate relationships of nutritional parameters, demographics, and surgical records with postoperative outcomes in a cohort study.

Spontaneous common bile duct perforation due to choledocolithiasis accompanied with pancreaticobiliary maljunction in an adult: a case report.

Background: Spontaneous common bile duct (CBD) perforation is an extremely rare disease in adults. We report an adult case of CBD perforation due to choledocolithiasis accompanied with pancreaticobiliary maljunction, which is, to our knowledge, the first such case report based on a search using PubMed.

Case Presentation: A 71-year-old woman with consciousness disorder was transported to the emergency department of another hospital.

Usefulness of intraoperative contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in laparoscopic enucleation of small pancreatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma: A case report.

Pancreatic metastasis from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is relatively rare. Surgical resection of the lesion is recommended if no residual tumor remains. Although there is no clear standard for surgical procedures, enucleation can be considered for small lesions.
