A Japanese man in his 20s was referred to our hospital with a two-month history of abdominal fullness and leg edema. Abdominal computed tomography revealing massive ascites ostial blockage the main hepatic veins, angiographic evaluation demonstrating obstruction veins yielded diagnosis Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). Diuretic agents were prescribed for but failed provide relief. The patient department further treatment. Angiography showed most portal flow draining from an inferior right vein...
Meckel's diverticulum may sometimes present as an intraluminal polypoid mass causing small bowel obstruction; however, gastrointestinal bleeding due to with a lesion is rare. A 14-year-old girl presented tarry stool and syncope in our hospital. Laboratory examination showed iron-deficiency anemia low hemoglobin level of 5.8 g/dl. The site was detected by neither upper endoscopy nor colonoscopy. Transanal double-balloon enteroscopy ulceration at approximately 50 cm from the ileocecal valve...
Objective The spleen is part of the lymphatic system and one least understood organs human body. It involved in production blood cells helps filter blood, remove old cells, fight infection. Partial splenic artery embolization (PSE) widely used to treat pancytopenia portal hypertension. efficacy PSE for improving thrombocytopenia has been well demonstrated. In this study, we evaluated infarction ratio platelet increase after PSE. Methods Forty-five consecutive patients underwent from January...
Various energy devices are available for resection of the liver parenchyma during laparoscopic (LLR). We have historically performed resections using Cavitron Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator (CUSA). More recently, we used new bipolar forceps (BiSect; Erbe Elektromedizin GmbH, Tübingen, Germany) to perform clamp-crush dissection with good results. The BiSect is a reusable dissecting tip and both an incision mode coagulation mode. evaluated perioperative clinical course patients who underwent...
Abstract Background In Japan, primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often develops against a background of chronic hepatitis, such as persistent hepatitis B virus (HBV) or C (HCV) infection. Patients with HCC are commonly in their 50s 60s. It is extremely rare to find patients 40s younger. cases reported constitute only 0.23% all cases. The adolescent and young adult (AYA) population refers people aged 15–39 years. cancer the AYA may present special clinical features biologic...
Extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO) is a rare disease with myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) as the most common cause. We report that hypersplenic hematologic changes in EHPVO might be eliminated by MPN. Through experience splenectomy for variceal control EHPVO, we suspected spleen mask MPN-induced thrombocytosis, and MPN have significant influence on excessive thrombocytosis after splenectomy. To clarify of platelet trends, conducted retrospective hospital database analysis,...
The common metastatic sites of renal cell cancer (RCC) are the lung, bone, liver, brain, adrenal glands, and contralateral kidney. Metastasis to gallbladder is rare, cystic duct metastasis from RCC has been reported in only one metachronous case. This first report a case synchronous RCC.A 72-year-old woman presenting with hematuria had history Cushing disease approximately 10 years previously. Enhanced computed tomography abdomen showed mass measuring 5.8 × 3.0 cm left kidney, which was...
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is essential for diagnosing and treating biliopancreatic disease. Because ERCP-related perforation can result in death, therapeutic decisions are important. The aim of this study was to determine the cause suggest appropriate management.Between January 1999 August 2022, 7,896 ERCPs were performed our hospital. We experienced 15 cases (0.18%) conducted a retrospective review.Of patients, 6 female 9 male, mean age 77.1 years. According...
The spleen is a lymphatic organ that manages immune surveillance of the blood, produces blood cells, and helps filter remove old fight infection. normal splenic weight approximately 65-265 g. This study evaluated volume segmental volume.
