AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
We analyzed patients receiving hepatic resection for liver metastases from colorectal cancer to determine prognostic factors. Seventy-one patients underwent curative hepatic resection for liver metastases and 32 of them were treated with arterial infusion chemotherapy (AIC) using implantable port. Five-year survival rates in the AIC group and non-AIC group calculated by the method of Kaplan-Meier were 43% and 22%, respectively (p < 0.01, logrank test). By multivariate analysis calculated by the Cox proportional hazard model, the preoperative CEA level (cut point 10 ng/dl) and existence of AIC predicted survival.

Department of Pathology, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Korea.
Background: A right adrenal gland may present in the form of adreno-hepatic fusion (AHF), in which the adrenal cells are interspersed among the hepatocytes without septation. This rare, naturally-occurring phenomenon may be associated with preoperative misdiagnosis. We present two cases of adrenal tumor in patients with AHF that were misdiagnosed, despite thorough preoperative work-ups.

Background: Locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinomas (LA-PDAC) are more frequently operated now than in the past because of new regimen chemotherapy and improvement in surgical technique. Resection of the coeliac trunk (CT) during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) or total pancreatectomy (TP) is not routinely done owing to the risk of liver and gastric ischaemia. In this video, a patient with LA-PDAC underwent TP with CT resection and retrograde gastric revascularization through the distal splenic artery.

Key Laboratory of Hepatosplenic Surgery, Ministry of Education, Department of Minimal Invasive Hepatic Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Harbin, Heilongjiang 150001, China.
Background: Arsenic trioxide (ATO) is indicated as a broad-spectrum medicine for a variety of diseases, including cancer and cardiac disease. While the role of ATO in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (HIRI) has not been reported. Thus, the purpose of this study was to identify the effects of ATO on HIRI.

Background: Gallbladder neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) represents a subtype of gallbladder malignancies characterized by a low incidence, aggressive nature, and poor prognosis. Despite its clinical severity, the genetic alterations, mechanisms, and signaling pathways underlying gallbladder NEC remain unclear.
Case Summary: This case study presents a rare instance of primary gallbladder NEC in a 73-year-old female patient, who underwent a radical cholecystectomy with hepatic hilar lymphadenectomy and resection of liver segments IV-B and V.

Department of Rheumatology, Fuzhou University Affiliated Provincial Hospital, Shengli Clinical Medical College of Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, China.
Background: The incidence and mortality rate of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are increasing globally. HCC with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus (HCCIVCTT) represents an advanced stage of the disease. Research suggests that for patients with advanced HCCIVCTT, liver resection combined with thrombectomy is a safe and feasible option that can provide moderate survival benefit.
