The aim of the research was to study tissue blood flow in the dynamics of malignant tumor growth (Ehrlich carcinoma of 80 mice, sarcoma--37-80 rats, 30 rabbit--Brown-Pirs carcinoma) in functionally different organs of experimental animals (mice, rats, rabbits): skeletal muscles, liver, ear, mammary gland and ciliary body of eye. The study was conducted using H clearance method. Deformability of erythrocytes was studied using filtration-photometry method. Blood surface tension was studied by Rebinder bubble maximal pressure method. Obtained data were analyzed by Student's t criterion. The investigation showed that intensity of local hemocirculation and erythrocytes deformability in "intact" organs and tissues of experimental animals in the dynamics of malignant tumor growth progressively decreases while, blood surface tension increases. It was revealed that paraneoplastic disorders of local hemocirculation were stereotyped, universal and common phenomenon for malignant tumor growth. It was concluded that alterations of blood rheology decreased deformability of erythrocytes and increased blood surface tension play one of the leading roles in the mechanism of paraneoplastic disorders of local hemocirculation.

Background: Central nervous system tumors (CNSTs) represent a significant oncological challenge in pediatric populations, particularly in developing regions where access to diagnostic and therapeutic resources is limited.
Methods: This research investigates the epidemiology, histological classifications, and survival outcomes of CNST in a cohort of pediatric patients aged 0 to 19 years within a 25-year retrospective study at the Civil Hospital of Guadalajara, Mexico, from 1999 to 2024.
Results: Data was analyzed from 273 patients who met inclusion criteria, revealing a higher incidence in males (51.

Introduction: The objective of this study is to compare the 5 year overall survival of patients with stage I-III colon cancer treated by laparoscopic colectomy versus open colectomy.
Methods: Using Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Cancer Registry data from 2008 to 2018, we will emulate a phase III, multicenter, open-label, two-parallel-arm hypothetical target trial in adult patients with stage I-III colon cancer who received laparoscopic or open colectomy as an elective treatment. An inverse-probability weighted Royston‒Parmar parametric survival model (RPpsm) will be used to estimate the hazard ratio of laparoscopic versus open surgery after confounding factors are balanced between the two treatment arms.

Purpose: Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common primary ocular malignancy. The size and location of the tumor are decisive for brachytherapy with the β-emitting ruthenium-106 (Ru-106) plaque. The treatment of juxtapapillary and juxtafoveolar UM may be challenging because of the proximity or involvement of the macula and optic nerve and high recurrence rates.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a malignant and life-threatening tumor with an extremely poor prognosis, posing a significant global health challenge. Despite the continuous emergence of novel therapeutic agents, patients exhibit substantial heterogeneity in their responses to anti-tumor drugs and overall prognosis. The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is highly activated in various tumor cells and plays a pivotal role in tumor metabolic reprogramming.

Background: Reaching parenchymal segments of the lateral lenticulostriate artery (LSA) perforators, which represent the medial resection limit in insular gliomas (IG), remains a challenge. The currently described methods are indirect and sometimes, imprecise.
Methods: We report an antegrade direct skeletonization technique to identify these tiny arteries at the medial end of IGs with an illustrative case of grade 2 astrocytoma.
