This paper presents the surgical technique for ventral abdominal hernia repair, including median incisional hernia, umbilical hernia and epigastric hernia. The main stages of the surgical procedure are as follows: pinpointing the parietal defect, insufflation of pneumoperitoneum and placing the trocars, inspection and adhesiolysis of the peritoneal cavity, closure of the defect with extracorporeal transparietal U reverse stitches, preparing the mesh, introducing the mesh in the peritoneal cavity and fixing it with transfascial sutures and tackers. Postop care measures, postop complications and controversies regarding mesh composition and fixation method are also discussed.

PEPITEM is an immune-modulatory peptide that effectively regulates inflammation and mitigates immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). Here, we identify two independently active tripeptide pharmacophores within PEPITEM and engineered peptidomimetics with enhanced pharmacodynamic properties. These peptidomimetics regulate T-cell trafficking in vitro and reduce T-cell, neutrophil and macrophage numbers in the inflamed peritoneal cavity in vivo.

We present a case of 37-year-old man with multiple masses in the abdominal and pelvic cavity who underwent 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT. The masses demonstrated heterogeneously increased uptake on 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT and were suggestive of neuroendocrine tumor. However, the histopathological examinations confirmed the masses to be peritoneal mesothelioma.

Through morphological and molecular studies, the natural life cycle of Dollfus, 1960 (Cestoda: Taeniidae) from Argentine Patagonia is elucidated, involving subterranean rodents (Ctenomyidae) as intermediate hosts, and the Andean fox (Canidae) as definitive host. Metacestodes (mono- and polycephalic fimbriocerci) were found mainly in the peritoneal cavity of , and the strobilate adult in the intestine of . Correspondence between metacestodes and strobilate adults was based primarily on number, size and shape of rostellar hooks: 45-53 hooks alternated in two rows, small hooks 88-180 μm long and large hooks 230-280 μm long, with the characteristic shape described in the two main description of the species, both that of the metacestode (original description) and that of the strobilate adult (obtained experimentally).

Introduction: Programmed death-1 (PD-1) is a negative regulator of immune responses. Upon deletion of PD-1 in mice, symptoms of autoimmunity developed only after they got old. In a model experiment in cancer immunotherapy, PD-1 was shown to prevent cytotoxic T lymphocytes from attacking cancer cells that expressed neoantigens derived from genome mutations.
