Primary appendiceal neoplasms are uncommon, being found in approximately 0.5%-1.0% of appendectomy specimens at pathologic evaluation. Primary appendiceal Burkitt's lymphomas are rare occurring in 0.015% of all gastrointestinal lymphomas. Almost all reported cases of appendiceal lymphoma have proved to be non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The majority of appendiceal lymphomas are of B-cell. Patients were almost entirely males. Acute appendicitis is the most common clinical manifestation. This report describes a rare case of primary appendiceal lymphoma in a patient presented with hematuria and dull aching right lower abdominal and back pain.

Introduction: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) can improve survival for patients with peritoneal surface malignancy. Completeness of cytoreduction correlates with prognosis. The role of gastrectomy in these patients is not well described.

Background: Mitochondrial dysfunction has been demonstrated to be an important hallmark of sarcopenia, yet its specific mechanism remains obscure. In this study, mitochondrial-related genes were used as instrumental variables to proxy for mitochondrial dysfunction, and summary data for sarcopenia-related traits were used as outcomes to examine their genetic association.
Methods: A total of 1,136 mitochondrial-related genes from the human MitoCarta3.
Robotic Laparoscopy and Endoscopy Cooperative Surgery for Primary Appendiceal Mucinous Carcinoma Masquerading as Bladder Cancer: A Case Report.

Department of Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan.
Bladder invasion by appendiceal cancer resulting in a vesico-appendiceal fistula is an uncommon occurrence. Both radical tumor removal and functional preservation of the bladder are desirable in the surgical treatment of this disease, and there are few reports on detailed surgical methods. Here, we describe a case of primary appendiceal mucinous carcinoma with bladder invasion treated with robotic laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery (RECS).

Introduction: Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) is increasingly performed in young patients with peritoneal surface malignancies. Important quality of life (QoL) questions arise; however, there is limited research on fertility experiences in young women with carcinomatosis or following CRS/HIPEC.
Methods: Retrospective review of a prospective database evaluating women less than 45 ys who underwent CRS/HIPEC at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center from January 1998 to 2020.
Should an Interval Appendicectomy Be Performed by a Minimally Invasive Gynaecologist?

Objective: We aimed to explore the abnormal pathology findings in appendix specimens removed based on intraoperative abnormal appearance during elective surgery for benign gynaecological conditions by a minimally invasive gynaecologist, as well as the associated complication rate.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary referral surgical centre for benign gynaecological conditions between the years 2004-2023. It included patients who underwent appendicectomy by a trained minimally invasive gynaecologist based on observations during surgery for benign gynaecological conditions.
