A 62-year-old woman was diagnosed with gastric cancer, Type 4, cT4b(LN, mesentery of transverse colon), N1 M1H0P1CY1, cStage ⅣB. S-1 and L-OHP(SOX)were administered for 4 courses and clinical response was SD. She interrupted the treatment because of practicing folk therapy. She had an emergency hospitalization due to pyloric stenosis, vomiting, and an umbilical tumor with pain. She was treated with 1 course of mFOLFOX6(5-FU, L-OHP, l-LV)followed by palliative surgery(laparoscopy assisted distal gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y reconstruction, resection of umbilical tumor, and bypass for transverse colon stenosis due to dissemination). The pathological diagnosis was L, Circ, Type 4, 126×89 mm, por> sig, pT4b(SI, mesentery of transverse colon), pN3a(12/13), H0P1CY1, pStageⅣ, and metastatic umbilical tumor. Following surgery, oral administration of mFOLFOX6 is continued. Umbilical metastasis(Sister Mary Joseph's nodule)is associated with poor prognosis, however, appropriate management including symptom control by palliative surgery and continuation of chemotherapy may lead a better prognosis.

Background: Lymphadenectomy for rectal cancer is clearly defined by total mesorectal excision (TME). The analogous surgical strategy for the colon, the complete mesocolic excision (CME), follows the same principles of dissection in embryologically predefined planes.
Method: This narrative review initially identified key issues related to lymphadenectomy of rectal and colon cancer.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with the two predominant endophenotypes-Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC)-represents a group of chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory conditions. Since most genetic associations with IBD are often limited to independent subtypes, we reported a genome-wide association study (GWAS) cross-trait analysis combined with CD and UC to enhance statistical power. Initially, we detected 256 association signals at 54 genomic susceptibility loci and further characterized the functionality of variants within these regions.

Background And Aims: The 6-min withdrawal time for colonoscopy is widely considered the standard of care. However, there may not be appropriate if the 6-min is equally divided into various colon segments. Since the adenoma detection in each colon segment is not the same, there may be differences with the withdrawal time in different colon segments.

Objective: Chronic constipation (CC) more frequently affects the elderly; pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) may confuse the appraisal of the pathophysiology of CC. The aim was to characterize colonic transit (CT) in elderly with CC with/without PFD.
Design: We conducted retrospective medical records review of 191 patients ≥ 65 years who underwent scintigraphic CT for assessing CC.

Persistent ascending mesocolon (PAM) is a rare congenital anomaly in ⁓2%-4% of individuals. PAM is associated with various complications, including volvulus of the colon and caecum, bowel perforation, intestinal obstruction, and adhesions. This case is reported on a 48-year-old woman who reported to the Ho Teaching Hospital specialist clinic with a 13-year history of initial painless and reducible paraumbilical swelling.
