The authors experimentally reproduced in dogs, sclerosing lesions of biliary tract similar to those that they noticed in clinical practice, after the use of a formalin solution for sterilization of the hydatid cysts of the liver. These lesions have been found with formalin solutions more concentrated than those used in surgical treatment of liver echinococcosis. Nevertheless, even with the use of lower concentrated solution in every case, inflammatory scars are produced in the liver and the biliary tract with persist several months after the formalin injection consequently, the authors recommend to forsake the abandonment of this product for surgical treatment of hydatid cyst.

This retrospective case series evaluates the use of intralesional bleomycin injections in treating orbital venolymphatic malformations (OVLM). Three patients, a 7-year-old girl, a 37-year-old woman, and a 56-year-old man, presented with OVLM where the first two were recurrent cases with a history of failed sclerotherapy. All patients received multiple doses of intralesional bleomycin injections, resulting in significant reductions in lesion size, decreased proptosis, and pain relief.

Background: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate clinicopathological characteristics, patterns of recurrence, survival outcomes, and implications for the addition of chemoradiotherapy for patients with resected perihilar and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA).
Materials And Methods: For the present retrospective study, we identified 38 and 10 patients with resected perihilar and intrahepatic CCA. In perihilar CCA, adjuvant treatment was given as chemotherapy ( = 13) or chemoradiotherapy ( = 10).
