The case is a female, 50s. She presented to our hospital because of her intestinal obstruction. A CT scan at her visit showed wall thickening of her ascending colon. Colonoscopy revealed type 2 advanced cancer in the ascending colon. The pathological examination was a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy was performed for cT3N1M0, cStage Ⅲb ascending colon cancer. The pathological result was pT3N1M0, Stage Ⅲb. Contrast-enhanced CT was performed 10 months after the operation. As a result, she was found to have recurrent multiple liver metastases. A laparoscopic partial hepatectomy was performed at the site of recurrence. The pathological result was adenocarcinoma. It was a diagnosis of metastasis recurrence from colorectal cancer. A CT scan 16 months after primary surgery revealed enlarged cardiodiaphragmatic lymph nodes. A PET-CT scan revealed an accumulation of SUVmax 3.0 in the same area. She was diagnosed with lymph node recurrence of colorectal cancer and underwent resection. Histopathological result was adenocarcinoma. It was diagnosed as metastasis from ascending colon cancer.

Relationship Between Adenoma Detection Rate and Respective Withdrawal Time in Different Colon Segments: A Retrospective, Single-Center Study.

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.

Aim: Complete mesocolic excision (CME) is an oncologically driven technique for treating right colon cancer. While laparoscopic CME is technically demanding and has been associated with more complications, the robotic approach might reduce morbidity. The aim of this study was to assess the safety of stepwise implementation of robotic CME.

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.
