Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs) are a class of bioactive polyunsaturated fatty acids with inhibitory effects on colorectal cancer. Firstly, ω-3 PUFAs can change membrane fluidity and affect cell functions; Secondly, they can affect the activity of important proteins in cell signal transduction pathways and regulate the inflammatory mediators and the functions of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment; Finally, they can change the important molecules in the process of tumor metastasis and inhibit the colorectal cancer via suppressing cell proliferation, promoting apoptosis, enhancing antitumor immunity, and preventing tumor metastasis.

To establish the preoperative three dimensional (3D) model of liver cancer, and to precisely match the preoperative planning with the target organs during the operation.
 Methods: The 3D model reconstruction based on magnetic resonance data, which was combined with virtual reality technology via HoloLens glasses, was applied in the operation of liver cancer to achieve preoperative 3D modeling and surgical planning, and to directly match it with the operative target organs during operation.
 Results: The 3D model reconstruction of liver cancer based on magnetic resonance data was completed.

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is an major health issue due to the significant health costs and marked disfigurement following surgical excision. The conventional reconstructive options may not be suitable for patients with large SCCs of the lower part of the leg, due to the regional tissue damage and ischemic environment. The omental transposition flap is a highly vascularized tissue that is resistant to infection and provides a recipient bed for skin grafts.
