RESUMO
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Hepatic hemangiomas are the most common benign liver tumors, which in most cases are small in size and do not require specific treatment. Giant hepatic hemangiomas are a rare pathology. The purpose of this report is to demonstrate the case of combined treatment of giant hepatic hemangioma. CASE PRESENTATION: A man of the Caucasian race, 37 years old, appealed to the clinic with a complaint about the presence of palpable abdominal mass. During the examination a giant cavernous hemangioma of the left lobe of the liver with a vertical size of up to 210 mm was discovered. Endovascular transarterial embolization (ETE) of tumor-feeding hepatic artery followed by radical surgery on mass removal is performed. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Giant hemangiomas often cause compression of nearby structures and cause symptoms such as pain, abdominal discomfort, nausea, early food saturation, etc. Cases of spontaneous rupture of cavernous hemangioma, including fatal outcome, are also described. We suggest that some patients should go through surgical treatment even if they do not have any complaint. CONCLUSIONS: Our experience shows that endovascular embolization of the hepatic arteries can be effectively applied as a pre-surgical preparation method in order to reduce hemangioma size and blood loss volume during surgical intervention.
RESUMO
The number of people with gastric cardia and distal oesophageal cancers has increased in the last five years. The surgical treatment method of choice is proximal gastrectomy, with an option being reconstruction of the gastrointestinal tract. There are many reconstruction techniques for anastomosis of the oesophagus and distal parts of the digestive tract. However, all can result in complications. This systematic review aims to identify the efficacy of the double-tract reconstruction method after gastric resection. Different operative techniques for gastric reconstruction have been included in this review. The double-tract reconstruction method, which is gaining popularity among surgeons in Asia and Europe, is a promising technique that improves the early and late results of surgical treatment. This method is associated with low complications related to gastroesophageal reflux disease and dysphagia. Double-tract reconstruction is a promising method for the treatment of patients with esofagocardial gastric cancer. However, further studies are required on the long-term complications and side effects.
RESUMO
The Miligan-Morgan's operation has long been considered to be the "golden standard" of hemorrhoids' stage I-III treatment. The invention of distal branches of the upper rectal artery' suture ligation with mucopexia and lifting of the anal canal mucosa discovered new possibilities for hemorrhoids surgery, though there are still some questions considering long-term results. 151 cases of recurrence within 1-6 months were analyzed. The use of CT-angiography with 3D reconstruction of the upper rectal artery allowed to chose the operative technique more relevant and thus improve the treatment results.
