Aims: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of oxaliplatin-based combination chemotherapy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) to extrahepatic sites.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a population-based retrospective study examining the safety and effectiveness of perioperative oxaliplatin for resectable or potentially resectable colorectal metastases in Ontario, Canada. Outcomes were also compared with patients with liver-only metastases. Patients received oxaliplatin for mCRC between 1 January 2013 and 30 June 2020.
Results: In total, 192 patients had extrahepatic metastases. Seventy per cent had R0 metastasectomy. The 3-year disease-free survival and overall survival were 62% and 79%, respectively; <4% of patients died within 60 days of metastasectomy and 74-90% of patients received treatment according to recommendations from a multidisciplinary setting. Compared with liver-only controls (n = 1306), patients had mCRC to the lung only (n = 115), lung and liver (n = 55) and liver with non-pulmonary site (n = 22). Extrahepatic metastases were more likely to be found for patients whose primary colorectal resection had positive margins (14% versus 7%, P = 0.005) and primary tumours located in the rectum [odds ratio 4.01 (2.31-6.97)]. After adjustment, there was no difference in overall survival between liver-only controls and patients with lung-only [hazard ratio 0.82 (0.59-1.15)] or liver and lung metastases [hazard ratio 1.26 (0.85-1.87)] (P = 0.24). In total, 79/115 (69%) of patients with lung-only metastases had a metastasectomy compared with 645/1306 (49%) and 15/55 (27%) of patients with liver-only and liver and lung metastases, respectively. Hospital visits were similar between patients with liver-only and extrahepatic metastases.
Conclusion: Oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy for patients with resectable or potentially resectable mCRC with extrahepatic metastases was safe and resulted in similar outcomes in appropriately selected patients when compared with patients with liver-only metastases.

Background: The aim of this study was to verify the safety and efficacy of endoscopic resection (ER) for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).
Methods: Among a consecutive series of resections for gastric GISTs performed in a single center, the outcomes of patients who had ER were compared to standard surgical resection (SR).
Results: In the cohort, 329 consecutive primary localized gastric GISTs patients (, ER/SR = 251/78) were enrolled.

Background: Primary pituitary abscess is a rare disease with no specific symptoms for pituitary abscess alone. A preoperative diagnosis is quite challenging due to unclear imaging findings.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a patient with a pituitary lesion who presented with hypopituitarism, diabetes insipidus, and visual field defect and was misdiagnosed as a possible cystic pituitary adenoma.

Subvalvular aortic stenosis typically manifests at a young age and rarely presents in adulthood. It may cause left ventricular outflow tract stenosis, which requires surgical treatment in severe cases. The coexistence of discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis and quadricuspid aortic valve is a highly unusual finding.

Cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are tangles of abnormal vessels with early arteriovenous (AV) shunting that can lead to intracerebral hemorrhage, seizures, neurologic deficit, or headache. To date, only a few cases of carcinomas metastasizing to pre-existing cerebral AVMs have been reported in the literature. However, renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) brain metastases that exhibit early AV shunting, where AVM pathology is not present, are extremely rare.

Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a diffuse, large B-cell lymphoma affecting the brain, spinal cord, leptomeninges, or eyes. A patient with a recurrence of a previous PCNSL manifesting as an isolated vitreoretinal disease without central nervous system (CNS) involvement and a second cerebral recurrence without vitreoretinal involvement has not yet been reported. The patient is an 86-year-old man with PCNSL of the left cerebellum diagnosed at the age of 82 years and treated with suboccipital trepanation and resection of the lesion followed by chemotherapy.
