Only a few cases of synchronous occurrence of gastric adenocarcinoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumour are reported in literature. We report a case of 70 years old lady who presented with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain and weight loss. Barium meal examination showed stricture of the body and antrum. Gastric endoscopic biopsy showed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Total gastrectomy revealed a 2cm submucosal nodule of low risk gastrointestinal stromal tumour along with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Patient died 18 months later.

This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) level in patients with resectable gastric cancer (GC). A total of 59 patients were prospectively enrolled, with their ctDNA detected and paired tumor tissue collected at various peri-operative time points. Patients with higher 1-month post-operative ctDNA levels demonstrated shorter overall survival status (hazard ratio [HR] = 5.

Disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis (DPL) is a rare entity. It is a benign disease but can mimic disseminated malignancy with extensive disease at multiple sites within the abdominopelvic cavity. The primary contributing factor is postulated to be peritoneal spillage of benign leiomyoma, especially after laparoscopic intervention, although hormonal influences might also play a role.

Targeted therapy for colorectal cancer (CRC) appears to have great potential with lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). The advances in LNP-based techniques, such as liposomes, exosomes, micelles, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs), nano-cubosomes, and plant- derived LNPs (PDLNPs), are explored in detail in this thorough review. Every platform provides distinct advantages: liposomes enable precise drug release and improved delivery; exosomes function as organic nanocarriers for focused treatment; SLNs offer greater stability; micelles enhance drug solubility and resistance; nano-cubosomes tackle low bioavailability; and PDLNPs offer biocompatible substitutes.
