Majority of malignant pancreatic neoplasms are epithelial in origin and mostly arise from exocrine gland. Ductal adenocarcinoma compromises the major histological type of such tumors. Primary non-epithelial tumors of exocrine pancreatic gland are extremely rare and incorporate lymphoma and sarcoma. Primary pancreatic lymphoma compromises less than 0.5% of pancreatic malignancies. Primary pancreatic lymphoma can be difficult to differentiate from pancreatic adenocarcinoma and other neoplasms on imaging, and a correct diagnosis is crucial for appropriate patient management.

MANAGEMENT OF SYNCHRONIC LARGE LIVER METASTASIS IN A NON-OCCLUSIVE COLON TUMOR.
Arq Bras Cir Dig
January 2025
D'Or Institute for Research and Education, Digestive Surgery Residency Program - Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Brazil.
In patients with synchronic liver colorectal metastasis, resection of the primary tumor and liver metastases is the only potentially curative strategy. In such cases, there is no consensus on whether resection of the primary tumor and metastases should be performed simultaneously or whether a staged approach should be performed (resection of the primary tumor and after, hepatectomy, or hepatectomy first). Patients with no bowel occlusion and with extensive liver disease are advised neoadjuvant oncological therapy.

Department of Gastroenterology, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, No.1055, San-xiang Road, Gu-su District, Suzhou, 215000, China.
Preventing moderately severe and severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP & SAP) is the primary goal of the management of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP). The main aim of this study was to investigate the factors affecting serum triglyceride (TG) clearance, particularly blood glucose (GLU) levels, which could potentially help to prevent the development of MSAP & SAP. The clinical data from 177 patients with MSAP & SAP and 195 patients with mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) on days 1-6 after the onset were collected and analyzed by multivariate logistic regression to identify the factors that have an impact on the severity of HLAP, especially TG.

Transplant Proc
January 2025
Division of Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee.
Background: Over the last decade, the number of simultaneous heart-kidney transplants (SHKTs) has increased dramatically. There are few reports of renal allograft outcomes in these high acuity patients. The goal of the present study was to identify variables that were related to early adverse outcomes (EAOs), including delayed graft function (DGF), primary non-function (PNF), and renal allograft futility (RAF) after SHKTs.

Division of Pancreatic Surgery, IRCCS, Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria di Bologna, Italy; Department of Internal Medicine and Surgery (DIMEC), Alma Mater Studiorum, University of Bologna, S. Orsola-Malpighi Hospital, Italy.
Objective: Metastatic PDAC has a very poor prognosis, and surgery has a limited role. The study aims to evaluate the OS of patients with PDAC and synchronous liver metastasis who undergo surgical therapy (ST) versus non-surgical therapies (NST).
Methods: We performed a random effects meta-analysis.
Toxicity of rare earth elements europium and samarium on zebrafish development and locomotor performance.
J Hazard Mater
January 2025
Key Laboratory of Physical Fitness and Exercise Rehabilitation of Hunan Province, Hunan Normal University, Changsha 410012, China. Electronic address:
Rare earth elements are integral to modern technology, but their increasing environmental distribution due to anthropogenic activities poses potential health risks to humans. This study utilized zebrafish as a model to assess developmental and locomotor performance effects of europium and samarium. Exposure to Eu or Sm induced a reduction in heart rate, growth inhibition, and morphological deformities.
