AI Article Synopsis
- A 60-year-old woman was diagnosed with a rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NET) that invaded the submucosa and underwent laparoscopic surgery with lymph node dissection.
- Four years later, imaging tests revealed multiple unresectable liver metastases, leading to the decision to use transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) for treatment.
- After one month of TACE, the tumors shrank, indicating that TACE is an effective option for managing unresectable liver metastases from rectal NET.
Article Abstract
A 60-year-old woman was diagnosed with a rectal neuroendocrine tumor(NET)with SM invasion.We performed laparoscopic low anterior resection with D3 lymph node dissection.Pathological findings were rectal NET, G1, pSM(9,000 mm), ly0, v0, pN0, PM0, DM0, pR0, pStage I .Four years and 6 months later, contrast enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CECT)and contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple liver metastases.The tumors were unresectable because they were bilobar; therefore, we performed transcatheter arterial chemoembolizaion(TACE).One month later, CECT showed the lesions had shrunk.The metastases were well controlled via repeated TACE.For unresectable liver metastases from rectal NET, TACE can be an effective treatment.

Assessing the feasibility and external validity of natural language processing-extracted data for advanced lung cancer patients.

Background: Manual extraction of real-world clinical data for research can be time-consuming and prone to error. We assessed the feasibility of using natural language processing (NLP), an AI technique, to automate data extraction for patients with advanced lung cancer (aLC). We assessed the external validity of our NLP-extracted data by comparing our findings to those reported in the literature.

Background/aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic impact of the inflammatory burden index (IBI), a novel inflammation-based biomarker, in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) after hepatic resection.
Patients And Methods: One hundred fifty patients with CRLM who underwent hepatectomy were retrospectively analyzed. The IBI was defined as C-reactive protein × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count.

Background: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a promising prognostic marker for patients undergoing hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). However, its prognostic value in patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) has not been sufficiently addressed.
Methods: From 2013 to 2023, a cohort of 692 patients with CRLM receiving hepatectomy were enrolled in five centers.

Treatment with pegylated nanoliposomal irinotecan (nal-IRI) plus 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (folinic acid; 5-FU/LV) has demonstrated remarkable efficacy for metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) in clinical trials. However, real-world data on the effectiveness of nal-IRI+5-FU/LV is heterogeneous and is lacking in Spain. To assess the effectiveness and safety of nal-IRI+5-FU/LV in real-life PDAC patients in Spain.

Purpose: The Japanese Grade Classification based on the status of pulmonary and mesenteric nodal metastases and the presence of extrapulmonary metastases had a prognostic value in patients with colorectal lung metastases previously. Because the survival of such patients has improved in the era of conversion therapy, this classification needs to be reaudited.
Methods: This study reviewed the treatment sequences of 126 colorectal cancer patients with synchronous lung metastases between 2010 and 2022 at our hospital.
