Neoplastic intestinal occlusion represent a Frequently Surgical emergency. The present study deals with 96 cases of neoplastic intestinal occlusion from a group of 480 patients admitted and operated with diagnosis of intestinal occlusions in our clinic between 1998-2002. The patients had clinical evidence of intestinal occlusions confirmed by imaging and endoscopical examination. Median age was 50 years, females (59,40%), urban (53,12%), rectosigmoid localization (60%) advised evaluative stages was predominance. Emergency operations were performed in all cases after a short period of equilibration, 54 operations with radical intention, in 29 cases we have used a orthograde colic lavage witch help us to make a good anastomosis, 20 Hartman type, 10 colostomy, 15 exploration laparatomy. Postoperative major complications was observed in 54,48% and postoperative mortality rate was of 6,22 %.

In particular, Cytotoxic Necrotizing Factor 1 (CNF1) from E. coli deserves special consideration due to the significantly higher prevalence of this toxin gene in CRC patients with respect to healthy subjects, and to the numerous tumor-promoting effects that have been ascribed to the toxin in vitro.

Background & Objectives: Differentiation of histologic subtypes of appendiceal mucoceles may prove to be difficult on computed tomography (CT). The main objective of this study was to identify the CT features of mucocele of the appendix and correlate the imaging findings with histopathology in inflammatory, benign, and malignant neoplastic lesions, and whether these entities can be accurately differentiated on CT imaging.
Materials And Methods: CT scans of 31 patients with diagnosis of appendiceal mucocele were retrospectively reviewed and compared with histopathology.

Autoimmune gastritis (AIG) is a chronic inflammatory condition characterized by immune-mediated destruction of gastric parietal cells, leading to oxyntic atrophy, achlorhydria, and hypergastrinemia. While AIG was historically linked to gastric adenocarcinoma and type I neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), recent evidence suggests the risk of adenocarcinoma in AIG is lower than previously believed, particularly in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-negative patients.
