Primary liver lymphoma is extremely rare. The diagnosis depends on the physician's suspicions and histological examination. We report the case of a man aged 38 years who suffered from abdominal discomfort and hypercalcemia. Sonography showed a huge, solid liver tumor, and magnetic resonance imaging showed the tumor had characteristics of hypointensity on T1-weighted and hyperintensity on T2-weighted imaging. Primary liver lymphoma was diagnosed by histological examination from biopsy. We report this rare type of liver tumor and review the clinical presentation and treatment of the disease.

Background: Colorectal neuroendocrine tumors with liver metastases (CRNELM) are associated with a poorer prognosis compared to their nonmetastatic counterparts. A comprehensive understanding of the tumor microenvironment (TME) heterogeneity between primary lesions (PL) and liver metastases (LM) could provide crucial insights for enhancing clinical management strategies for these patients.

Methods: We utilized single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze fresh tissue samples from CRNELM patients, aiming to elucidate the variations in TME between PL and LM.

Dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is common in colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM). Emerging evidence links lncRNAs to multiple stages of metastasis from initial migration to colonization of distant organs. In this study we investigated the role of lncRNAs in metabolic reprogramming during CRLM using patient-derived organoid (PDO) models.

Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary & Transplant Surgery, Singapore General Hospital, Singapore; SingHealth Duke-NUS Transplant Centre, Singapore; Duke-NUS Medical School, Singapore.

Background: Accurately assessing graft volume is crucial for donor and recipient safety in living donor liver transplantation. This can be performed using manual computed tomography volumetry (CTvol) or semiautomated methods (MeVis). We aimed to compare CTvol and MeVis in estimating the actual graft weight during LDLT, and analyse any differences in weight between laparoscopic and open donor hepatectomy.
