Background: Complex surgery during initial cancer treatment can limit surgical options when planning management of a secondary malignancy. Subtotal esophagectomy and pancreatoduodenectomy are the most invasive and difficult procedures in gastroenterological surgery. Surgical cases in which subtotal esophagectomy was performed after pancreatoduodenectomy with pancreaticogastrostomy are extremely rare and challenging procedures due to the resulting complicated anatomical changes.

Peptide-based therapeutics are gaining attention for their potential to target various viral and host cell factors. One notable example is Pep19-2.5 (Aspidasept), a synthetic anti-lipopolysaccharide peptide that binds to heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) and has demonstrated inhibitory effects against certain bacteria and enveloped viruses.

Objective: Extant imaging methods used for the proper identification of the parathyroid glands to prevent post-operative hypothyroidism associated with the resection of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) are limited by factors such as low specificity, high cost, and technical complexity. This study, therefore, sought to investigate the efficacy of the immunocolloidal gold strip method combined with nanocarbon negative imaging tracing technology for parathyroid gland imaging during radical resection of DTC in elderly patients.
Methods: A total of 100 elderly patients with DTC were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups: the control group and the observation group.

Objective: The risk of aortic dissection is increased in Turner Syndrome (TS). Aortic dilation is thought to contribute to this risk and may be managed with elective aortic surgery. New TS guidance has lowered the aortic size thresholds for consideration of aortic surgery.
