Objective: To analyse the plasma contents of querceitn and its metabolites in portal vein in rats.

Methods: Male Wistar rats were orally administrated with quercetin at the dose of 40 mg/kg. The blood samples were corrected from the portal vein 1 h later. The quercetin and its metabolites in plasma were analysed with high performance liquid chromatography-mass spetrometry (HPLC-MS) method.

Results: The quercetin, quercetin-3-glucuronide, quercetin glucuronide sulfate, 3'-O-methylated quercetin, 4'-O- methylated quercetin and quercetin sulfate were detected in portal vein.

Conclusion: The results indicated that the quercetin was extensively metabolized in intestine and entered the portal vein in various forms after administration.

Purpose: We present the case of a rare extrahepatic portocaval shunt that resulted in communication of the portal vein and the inferior vena cava (IVC) at the level between two right renal veins that was incidentally diagnosed with contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in an asymptomatic patient.

Methods: A woman in her sixties with abdominal pain and diarrhea of unclear origin underwent exploratory abdominal CECT.

Results: The CECT incidentally revealed an extrahepatic portocaval shunt, whereby a vessel arising from the portal vein superior to the confluence of the superior mesenteric and splenic veins drained into the posterior aspect of the IVC between two right renal veins.

Background: Pancreatic cancer involving the pancreas neck and body often invades the retroperitoneal vessels, making its radical resection challenging. Multimodal treatment strategies, including neoadjuvant therapy, surgery, and postoperative adjuvant therapy, are contributing to a paradigm shift in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. This strategy is also promising in the treatment of pancreatic neck-body cancer.

Background: Cirrhotic patients with super-giant hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and portal vein invasion generally have a poor prognosis. This paper presents a patient with super-giant HCC and portal vein invasion, who underwent hepatectomy followed by a combination of sorafenib and camrelizumab, resulting in complete remission (CR) for 5 years.

Case Summary: A 40-year-old male with compensated hepatitis B-related cirrhosis was diagnosed with HCC, Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage C.

Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) typically arises in patients with underlying cirrhosis, hepatobiliary malignancies, abdominal inflammatory conditions, or hematologic disorders. However, in non-cirrhotic individuals, PVT is less common and may initially present with minimal symptoms, escalating significantly if it extends to the mesenteric veins. Here, we present the case of a 37-year-old male with combined portal and mesenteric venous thrombosis, manifesting as acute intestinal obstruction.

Background And Aims: Real-world data on the variceal bleeding (VB) risk in patients receiving atezolizumab-bevacizumab (Atezo-Bev) treatment remain limited. This study aimed to assess the risk of VB and identify risk factors in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) receiving Atezo-Bev treatment.

Methods: This retrospective study included 640 patients with HCC who underwent endoscopy before Atezo-Bev treatment at two hospitals in Korea.
