Background: Hepatogastric fistula (HGF) is an uncommon occurrence that can be associated with various medical conditions. The primary causes typically involve peptic ulcer disease, infections (such as pyogenic, amoebic or tuberculosis), or iatrogenic factors (like post transarterial chemoembolization or radiotherapy). Massive gastrointestinal hemorrhage following HGF is extremely rare, with iodine-125 (I) seed migration to the stomach through HGF not previously documented.

Article Synopsis
  • * About 80% of GISTs have mutations in KIT or PDGFRA that affect how they behave and respond to treatment; a special type called SDH-deficient GISTs is linked to certain genetic syndromes and presents different challenges.
  • * The primary treatment involves surgery and the drug imatinib for advanced cases, but resistance to treatment is a major issue, particularly in kids and wildtype GISTs, highlighting the need for better therapies and personalized treatment approaches.

Article Synopsis
  • * Results show significant differences in the microstructure and proteolysis rates of HM and IF, with IF being digested faster than HM, especially in the stomach and early intestine.
  • * The findings indicate a strong correlation between in vitro and in vivo digestion outcomes, suggesting that in vitro models can effectively mimic the digestive process of HM in a living organism.
