A man in his 50s had undergone steroid therapy for eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis(EGPA). Since an examination for malignant tumors revealed type 0-Ⅰsp(cT1aN0M0)and type 2(cT2N0M0)lesions in the proximal and mid- transverse colon, respectively, he was referred to our department. Endoscopic resection was performed on the proximal lesion. After the confirmation of curative resection, laparoscopic partial colectomy(transverse colon)and D3 lymph node dissection were performed on the mid-transverse lesion. Because of the patient's favorable postoperative course, he was discharged from the hospital on POD17. Since steroids and immunosuppressants may cause immunological abnormalities and malignant tumors, such patients should be strictly followed up.

In hepatic flexure and transverse colon cancer surgeries, mobilizing the right mesocolon and precisely dissecting the gastrocolic trunk of Henle (GTH) are crucial. Previous classifications of GTH tributaries do not guide radical right hemicolectomy due to post-procedural anatomical acquisition. This study analyzed vessel associations, including the middle colic vein (MCV) converging site, right colic artery (RCA) presence, and other GTH tributaries, using ultra-thin CT for reconstruction.

Post-endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) bleeding, or clinically significant post-EMR bleeding, is influenced by factors such as polyp size, right-sided colonic lesions, laterally spreading tumors, anticoagulant use, and comorbidities like cardiovascular or chronic renal disease. The optimal prophylactic therapy for post-EMR bleeding remains unknown, with no consensus on specific criteria for its application. Moreover, prophylactic measures, including clipping, suturing, and coagulation, have produced mixed results.

Background: Splenic flexure mobilization can be technically challenging, and its oncological benefits remain uncertain. This study aims to explore the relationship between patient and clinical characteristics and splenic flexure mobilization time as well as the implications of prolonged splenic flexure mobilization duration.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study includes 105 patients who underwent laparoscopic distal colorectal cancer surgery between 2013 and 2018.
