A 63-year-old man was admitted for the evaluation of Hb 4.8 g/dL anemia. He underwent colon fiberscopy and was subsequently diagnosed with synchronous cancers of the ascending colon and rectum. He underwent laparoscopic ileocecal resection and low anterior resection with 2 segmental anastomoses. The histopathological diagnosis of A/C and rectal cancer was Stage Ⅱ and Stage Ⅲa, respectively. His treatment was completed after 6months of adjuvant chemotherapy with oral TS-1, which was followed by a subsequent 2 year follow-up study, without disease recurrence. Operations of synchronous cancers with 2 segmental anastomoses usually require longer surgical time and are associated with more postoperative complications compared with a single segmental anastomosis. We report a case of synchronous colorectal cancer successfully treated by laparoscopic surgery with 2 segmental anastomoses.

Background: The presence of significant tortuosity in access routes to aneurysms can interfere with catheter guidance and manipulation and significantly impact treatment strategies.

Observations: In this report, the authors combined intentional staged aneurysm embolization with the construction of a new direct access route, which they call a "highway bypass," for a symptomatic posterior circulation cerebral aneurysm that was difficult to access with a catheter. Notably, the highway bypass is used for catheter passage, and technical tips should be considered.

Background: Locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinomas (LA-PDAC) are more frequently operated now than in the past because of new regimen chemotherapy and improvement in surgical technique. Resection of the coeliac trunk (CT) during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) or total pancreatectomy (TP) is not routinely done owing to the risk of liver and gastric ischaemia. In this video, a patient with LA-PDAC underwent TP with CT resection and retrograde gastric revascularization through the distal splenic artery.
