Laparoscopic resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma is technically challenging because it involves complicated laparoscopic procedures that include hepatoduodenal lymphadenectomy, hemihepatectomy with caudate lobectomy, and hepaticojejunostomy. There are currently very few reports describing this type surgery. Between August 2014 December 2014, 5 patients underwent total or laparoscopic-assisted surgery for cholangiocarcinoma. Two I II radical resection. Three IIIa IIIb extended together...
Introduction The prognostic relevance of preoperative diabetes mellitus (DM) on the outcomes resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is controversial. Most previous studies evaluated role DM based a single blood test. Methods participants included 147 patients with PDAC who underwent pancreatectomy between September 2003 and June 2012. They were divided into following groups according to degree hyperglycemia defined by glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c): non‐DM (n = 70), HbA1c <...
Abstract Although the mean corpuscular volume (MCV) has been associated with various diseases, these associations in relation to age‐related trends MCV remain unclear. Therefore, we used a dataset over one million values identify relationship between ageing and changes. All laboratory data obtained November 1998 2019 at Chungbuk National University Hospital were retrospectively collected. After excluding cases missing for individual complete blood count parameters, outlier values, ages less...
Mucormycosis is a fatal opportunistic fungal infection that typically occurs in immunocompromised patients. The classical manifestation of mucormycosis rhinocerebral infection, and although primary gastrointestinal uncommon, it has an extremely high mortality rate Furthermore, cases immunocompetent host are rarely reported. Here, we describe our experience male patient, with no underlying disease, who succumbed to bowel infarction caused by intestinal during mechanical ventilatory care for...
Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis of small- and medium-sized arteries in multiorgan systems. PAN may affect the gastrointestinal tract 14%-65% patients, but rarely involves biliary liver. We describe patient without underlying disease who was diagnosed with during resection gallbladder
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in patients with trauma and associated poor outcomes. Therefore, early prediction of AKI important for risk stratification the provision optimal intensive care unit treatment. This study aimed to compare 2 models, machine learning (ML) techniques logistic regression, predicting trauma. We retrospectively reviewed charts 400 who sustained torso injuries between January 2016 June 2020. Patients were included if they aged > 15 years, admitted unit, survived...
This study aimed to determine the efficacy of intraoperative ultrasonography-guided wire localization guided breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for nonpalpable breast cancer and compare it conventional preoperative (PWL) surgery. We retrospectively analyzed medical charts 214 consecutive patients who underwent BCS using by a surgeon (IUWLS) PWL, between April 2013 March 2017. Positive surgical margins, reexcision rates, resection volumes were investigated. Of total cohort, 124 with IUWLS 90...
Abstract We investigated the clinical implications of mean corpuscular volume (MCV) in patients with major trauma. This single-center retrospective review included 2021 trauma admitted to intensive care unit between January 2016 and June 2020. 1218 aged $$\ge $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mo>≥</mml:mo> </mml:math> 18 years an injury severity score 16 final analysis.

Spontaneously ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma (srHCC) is a life-threatening disease. The prognosis of patients with srHCC after hepatectomy remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the and recurrence in srHCC. From 2015 2020, retrospective analysis who underwent was performed, compared unruptured HCC. Among 86 HCC hepatectomy, 11 had median tumor size group significantly larger than that (P = .001). incidence rate vascular invasion Glisson capsule higher group. .012 P < .001,...
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are aggressive neoplasms which may involve the liver. The imaging manifestations of hepatic lymphoma highly variable and show overlapping appearances numerous other diseases. As management prognosis differ markedly from those malignant diseases, prompt diagnosis early effective treatment very important. Here, we report an atypical case primary PTCL not otherwise specified involving liver that exhibited a solitary mass mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma...
Laparoscopic liver resection has become important procedure for malignant disease. In this report, we describe the relevant technical maneuvers and perioperative outcomes in laparoscopic anatomic segment 6 using Glissonian approach.From March 2003 October 2015, 7 patients who diagnosed hepatocellular carcinoma had undergone at single institution. We performed retrospective analysis of clinical these patients.All were men with mean age 62.3 years (range, 49 to 73 y). The operation time was...
Lipomas are very common benign tumors of mature fatty tissue that can occur in any part the body. However, lipomas parietal peritoneum extremely rare. A 36-year-old man presented with urinary frequency for 6 months. On computerized tomography abdomen and pelvis, a well-defined mass measuring 20 × 11 6.5 cm size, was found lower abdominal cavity. We performed laparoscopic parietal-peritoneum-preserving excision mass. The patient discharged without complications on post-operative day 6. To our...
Choriocarcinoma is a germ cell tumor belonging to the spectrum of gestational trophoblastic diseases, and occurs most commonly in gonads. Primary hepatic choriocarcinoma very rare, especially females. A 59-year-old woman was referred our clinic with history upper right quadrant pain lasting 1 month. Computed tomography magnetic resonance imaging revealed large hypervascular mass liver, characteristic angiosarcoma. The patient underwent hemihepatectomy without unexpected events....
We aimed to identify the risk factors for ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients admitted critical care after a torso injury.We retrospectively evaluated 178 with injury aged >15 years who were intubated emergency room and placed on mechanical ventilator intensive unit (ICU) admission, survived >48 hours, had thoracic and/or abdominal injuries, no end-stage renal disease. compared clinico-laboratory variables between (n = 54, 30.3%) non-ventilator-associated 124, 69.7%) groups. Risk...
The prognosis of early gastric cancer (EGC) with submucosal invasion is favorable; however, several cases recurrence have been reported even after curative gastrectomy. This study aimed to investigate risk factors and evaluate the clinical significance number retrieved lymph nodes (LNs) in EGC invasion. We retrospectively analyzed data 443 patients gastrectomy for recurrent factors. Recurrence was observed 22 In univariate analysis, were LNs ≤ 25 node metastasis. multivariate (hazard ratio...
