Eight hundred thirty-six patients with carcinoma of colon and rectum were treated surgically in the Ichilov Medical Center from 1968 to 1975. Forty-five patients (5.38%) suffering from perforative carcinoma were followed up. It was found that the treatment of choice for perforative carcinoma of the descending colon is primary resection without primary anastomosis. In ascending colon perforation the treatment of choice is primary resection with primary anastomosis. Thus aggressive surgical procedures afford the patient the best chance for smoother postoperative course and recovery. In patients surviving the operation, the survival time is not influenced by the type of perforation but by the stage of tumor invasion.

Acrometastasis is an extremely rare diagnosis, invariably associated with poor prognosis. A 60-year-old female with complaints of cough and breathing difficulty also presented with pain and swelling in her left leg. Radiological investigations suggested a double primary in the lung and leg; histopathology and immunohistochemistry (IHC) confirmed the lesion in the leg to be metastatic from the lung primary.

Purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO), a genetic variant associated with obesity, significantly impact the energetic metabolism of mechanical tumors. However, research on the function of FTO in CRC is scarce.

To evaluate the clinical value of multi-slice spiral CT in preoperative TNN staging and postoperative recurrence and metastasis of colon carcinoma, and to provide evidence for the reliability of CT in the diagnosis of colon carcinoma METHODS: 89 patients with colon carcinoma diagnosed pathologically in our hospital from July 2020 to April 2023 were selected retrospectively. The preoperative TNN staging and postoperative recurrence and metastasis were monitored by 64 row 128 layer spiral CT. The diagnostic coincidence rate, TNM staging coincidence rate and postoperative recurrent TNM staging accuracy were evaluated according to the pathological diagnosis RESULTS: The diagnostic coincidence rate of multi-slice spiral CT was 97.

Background: Metastatic colon cancer (MCC) is a debilitating condition with a poor prognosis. Currently, there is limited data that investigates MCC in relation to mismatch repair (MMR) status. The aims of this study are to compare sociodemographic and clinicopathologic features and mortality between patients with MMR-proficient (MMR-P) and MMR-deficient (MMR-D) MCC.

The occurrence and development of tumor is mediated by a wide range of complex mechanisms. Subsequent to nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide (HS) holds the distinction of being the third identified gasotransmitter. Alternation of HS level has been widely demonstrated to induce an array of disturbances in important cancer cell signaling pathways.
