Combining systemic treatments with liver resection in patients with colorectal liver metastases has been proven to be successful in delivering favorable survival outcomes. We describe a 68-year-old man who underwent six cycles of chemotherapy before developing recurrent colon cancer with liver metastases. Prior to this, he underwent a Hartmann’s procedure for obstructive malignant rectal cancer. Shortly after the initial procedure, he underwent a Hartmann’s reversal. Imaging revealed locoregional recurrence with increased CEA as well as metastatic lesions in segments 4b and 8 of the liver at the time of recurrence. After a complete multidisciplinary evaluation, the simultaneous resection of the liver metastasis and the bowel recurrence was carried out without incident, and adjuvant therapy was then administered. This case report detailed the patient’s experience with many chemotherapy treatments and an early recurrence of CRLM, followed with surgical resection of recurrent primary and liver metastatasis. As part of multidisciplinary therapy, we propose that simultaneous excision of the recurring bowel location and the liver metastases offers the potential for superior care.

Sebaceous gland carcinoma is a rare and aggressive tumor that accounts for less than 1% of all cutaneous malignancies. It is classified as intraocular and extraocular and is rarely found in the chest wall. Imaging tests such as Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance help to identify the location, size, and evaluation of the involvement of adjacent structures. The treatment is surgical excision, and diagnosis is confirmed postoperatively by the immunohistochemical analysis.

Objectives: Prior studies comparing Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in patients receiving Vitamin-K Antagonists (VKA) and Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants (NOAC) focused on the crude rate of GI bleeding and less on severity of such events. The aim of our study was to assess characteristics of GI bleeding in patients on VKA therapy versus NOAC therapy. Methods: Retrospective data was collected from patients hospitalized with GI bleeding at Hadassah University Medical Center between January 2010 and July 2017. Retrieved data included demographics, laboratory results, clinical outcomes and details regarding the bleeding characteristics, evaluation, treatment and hospitalization. Patients were divided into two groups – those receiving VKA and those receiving NOAC. Results: 514 patients who presented with GI bleeding were included. 439 patients were on VKA treatment and 75 on NOAC treatment. Atrial fibrillation was the indication for anticoagulation in 64% of VKA patients and in 91% of NOAC patients. The mean HAS-BLED score was the same in VKA and NOAC patient groups. Major bleeding events were seen in 38.3% of VKA patients and 30.7% of NOAC patients and life-threatening bleeding was seen in 34.4% of VKA patients and 26.7% of NOAC (p<0.05). Packed red blood cell and fresh-frozen plasma transfusions were administered less in the NOAC patients as compared to the VKA patients. No statistically significant differences in length of hospitalization, re-bleeding, or mortality were seen between groups. Conclusions: GI bleeding events on NOAC therapy are less severe and use fewer hospital resources as compared to those treated with VKA.

Materials and Methods: Research was carried out in Pubmed to identify those articles and studies containing data referring to incidence, treatment, pathogenesis and prevention of internal hernia. All randomized controlled trials, clinical trials, review papers, and meta-analysis were included. Results: Out of the 44 initially found studies, 26 were finally chosen for further review, being 7 of them the only ones that met the inclusion criteria. Conclusion: The antecolic orientation of the alimentary limb and closure of mesenteric defects shows lower incidence of internal hernias, yet being the available scientific evidence not conclusive enough so as to define a single trend when performing this surgical procedure. More comparative studies are needed to define the real impact of closing mesenteric defects in the prevention of internal hernias.

Since its introduction in 1980, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) has completely changed how urolithiasis is treated. A recognised, secure and efficient therapeutic alternative to surgical urolithiasis treatment is Electroshock Wave Therapy (ESWL). A tiny percentage of individuals do experience ESWL complications and when they do, the kidney is frequently involved. The important literature on extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (SWL) treatment and complications was examined and reviewed in order to pinpoint potential issues following SWL. The development and transit of fragments, infections, effects on renal and non-renal tissues and impacts on kidney function are the main causes of complications after SWL. Each of these risks can be avoided by taking the proper precautions, such as adhering to the contraindications, identifying and treating concurrent disorders or infections and using the SWL in the safest and most effective manner possible while personalising the treatment for each patient. In conclusion, SWL is a successful and largely non-invasive method of treating kidney stones. There are various contraindications and potential consequences, just like with any other sort of therapy, though. The danger of the emergence of others might be significantly reduced by strict adherence to the first; however, this must be completely understood in order to put every preventive step at our disposal into action. Different studies mentioning different cases and statistics related to the complications post ESWL were considered and reviewed for this document.

It is since 1992 that this research began after reading numerous articles which placed Neuropeptide Y (NPY) antibody in the regulation of calcium and stomach function. Research in posturology and osteopathy carried out since 1988 highlights the oral afferents in the postural balance of verticalization and hominization. In parallel, paleontological research, on the ventro-caudal concavity flexion of the sphenoid, by Pr Anne Dambricourt, CNRS and the study on the evolution of the neurocranium by Pr Yves Lignereux of the Toulouse natural history museum, have allowed this research to position itself on the anatomical and embryological level. Researchers such as Gulgun Sengul and Charles Watson took up the work of Dr.Yew Chan, et al., in 1999 showed the relevance of NPY, at the high dorsals level, up to the 12th week of gestation in humans. In their work on the spine, Lumbar Spine Discover, the authors Aspden and Porter showed that this ligament relevance would be verifiable on the whole of the supraspinous ligament up to the lumbar vertebrae, which was further studied in the 2016.

The hernia of the canal of Nuck is a female exclusivity and appears as the result of failure to close the vaginalis process. It is found more frequently in children and rarely in elderly women. This type of hernia usually contains parts of the uterus, ovary and fallopian tube and rarely intestinal loops are observed. The diagnosis is made through Ultrasound (US), which allows the identification of herniated structures and the treatment is always surgical.

The explosion of the bladder or intravesical explosion is a rare but possible complication in Transurethral Resection (TUR) procedures. The chances of a bladder rupture occurring during TUR are approximately 0.02%. In all types of transurethral surgeries which involve diathermy, the possibility of bladder explosion remains. It can be in the form of a mucosal tear which is a simple or a deep rupture in the bladder. Immediate and quick intervention is important for repairing the bladder when this complication occurs. The initial cases of this complication were reported in 1926. Since then, there have only been thirty reports of such complications.

The pathology of the elderly is the direct result of the aging process, aggravated by the physical and mental involution that occurs with advancing age. Age-related eye changes are present, such as: presbyopia, decreased tears, peripheral visual field reduction, vitreous liquefaction (with posterior vitreous detachment and retinal detachment), decreased vision due to cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular lesions, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), optic atrophy. At the same time, there are multiple systemic diseases in the elderly, at the cardiovascular, respiratory, locomotor, neurological, auditory level. The diseases of the elderly can be multiple, with a long, chronic evolution, with periods of exacerbation, frequent complications, prolonged convalescence. Aging is a continuous, dynamic process that must be followed because in its evolution new connections and balances are created that must be identified and treated properly, old age being a distinct stage of ontogenesis that should not be seen as a state of disease. In an elderly patient, the normal aging should be differentiated from pathology.

It is possible to encounter a patient who might have more than one type of a primary malignant tumor. The literature supports increasing tendencies for subsequent development of malignancies within same individual. A case example of a young woman is given who was diagnosed with a pleomorphic Liposarcoma, while she is been followed up for metastatic ductal breast carcinoma and with a past history of treated acute lymphoblastic Leukemia. As per our review, various associations of malignant conditions are encountered, but are more likely to be metachronous rather than synchronous. The duration between diagnosing a second and third malignancy tends to be relatively short. Soft tissue sarcoma as a synchronous malignancy has been shown to be associated with breast cancer more often. Patients diagnosed with new subsequent malignancy including soft tissue sarcomas must be managed holistically and with full measures; as per current data, their prognosis is not necessarily poorer than regular cancer patients.
